It's quite a long walk. Your best bet as an away fan is to stay in a central hotel I think, nicer range of pubs and restaurants and it's not difficult to get up to the CBS by public transport or Uber.

A good couple of miles. But I think there's a bus stop right outside that'll take you straight into town.

Cheers someone mentioned the ibis hotel I think they said it was £6 parking per day so that may be an option then park on St Finbarrrs on Holbrook Lane for the match

Spon St is quite lively at night, a few pubs and independent restaurants. For breakfast you've got the Cosy Club in Broadgate

It's going to be a hell of a day. Euphoria or crushing disappointment. For one of us, neither of us or both of us!

Unless we win and they lose on Saturday and it’s 90 mins of us having a party in front of them.

It’s ideal if you’re looking to treat yourself to a slice of luxury and make it a weekend to remember.
Worth a question on the next fans forum why they do this...

Is mahou not new?

isn't Mahou the lounge thats causing the problems with the balcony not being able to be used? They have a restaurant style setup in there now with tables in front of the windows which presumably limits access to the seats on the balcony.

£200 for tapas. You would expect Iberico pork and albacore tuna for that ( and it won’t be)

My brother-in-law is on holiday for this one so has given me his season ticket, I have given it to my mate to use. He has also given me my nephews JSB season ticket, my other mate also wants to go. Does anyone know if you can pay to upgrade to an adult ticket? Just to confirm, it’s not in the family stand.

No you can’t pay to upgrade they cancel it and have to pay for full adult ticket I believe

You definitely can’t. The ticket is not yours,it is the clubs. If you are not using it you should inform them, it is theirs to do what they want with it.
I was told this in no uncertain terms.

I've done it plenty of times. He can 'upgrade' but he'll pay full price. I think I will need to do it for the Boro game.

It's cool, but I have said loads of times people will need to ask the club this as I'm not the person who can answer their questions yet people think I should.
All I can say is the club have told Pete current safety regulations mean less people are allowed in hospitality than there are seats on the balcony. We have in the past been allowed to sell all those tickets so the regulations have changed, I'm not the person to ask about that and that would be the club as it is a decision made by the SAG who stupidly don't publish their decisions online.
That make sense? It's a good question for Pete to ask at the next forum as I bet it frustrates the club as well.

This is correct. Up to last season, the upstairs lounge was sit down meals only which never proved very popular- also there is a catering limit on amount of covers they can serve .
The Balcony bar was introduced to allow more people to go up there as food not part of the package.
It still seems unpopular. People clearly don’t want to sit in the Balcony whereas Club Coventry is hardly ever available despite having no view of the pitch .

What I don’t understand is why they don’t put the free community tickets up there instead of in the directors box. Whilst it’s a great gesture it often full of bored oolong people on a free day out. Not sure why they need to sit in the best seats in the stadium.
