Do Cov fans normally get off at bordesly or new street? I’m getting off at new street for Saturday but obviously bordesly is closer to st Andrews just wondered which was more popular with Cov fans who don’t drive or get official club travel.

New Street and cab for me. Walk back after the game though as the traffic is so bad.

walk from New St.
Unless your elderly, disabled or got a young child with you getting the train from New St to Bordesley is the epitome of bone idleness.

I get off at Bordesley, but I get the X1 bus to games. Thinking of getting a train to New Street on Sat, to meet up with family coming on train from Tipton.

Bordesly is on a different line Joe. From Cov you'd have to get off at New Street and walk to Moor Street (only 5 mins) to go one stop to Bordesly. You'd be saving maybe 10 min walk through Digbeth.

I get the train in to New Street, grab a taxi to Moor Street, on the train to Bordesley and then have someone piggy-back me up to the ground.

Although not particularly a football pub, Dead Wax is a fairly new place about 10 minutes walk away. If you like decent music and good beers.

Dead Wax Digbeth

Adderley Park I get off, about 20 mins walk, takes you right past The Roost. You need to change at Birmingham International though waited 5 minutes last time.

Might use the train this weekend although I did buy a ticket for the Kop car park. Don't fancy waiting an hour after kick off. Warwick to Moor Street, change and back to Bordsley Green. Simple really.
