Direct train to Stansted from Nuneaton, can be pretty cheap when booked in advance/split tickets too.
As long as your flight is at an ok time.
Direct train to Stansted from Nuneaton, can be pretty cheap when booked in advance/split tickets too.Stansted is a bitch to get to. Always bad traffic. 2.5/3 hrs every time I’ve flown from there.
Whoosh. I was correcting someones spelling, not saying it was an easy airport to get to. lolStansted is a bitch to get to. Always bad traffic. 2.5/3 hrs every time I’ve flown from there.
When is the 1st official day of pre-season?
We are going to Cologne as well but trains look more expensive than that. Does that same train go to Frankfurt? Have you got a link?Just booked flight Manchester to Cologne 75 basic. Thursday through to Sunday.
Train from Cologne to Darmstadt can be bought for 34 Euro return. You can also also pay for a DB Bahn card for 3 months for 19.90 that gives 3 months travel with 25% off. I will use that for my short trip to Euro 2024 as well.
Trains are incredibly less than UK and have run to an extensive timetable. Can you imagine what the price of UK train would be for 197km?! Recently seen equivalent distances Manchester to London one way way in excess of 200 gbp. UK is so far behind other countries in the rest of Europe!

Our rail network is scandalous isn’t it. Brussels to Frankfurt cost me about 15 quid. Can pretty much guarantee it’ll run too which is always a bonus!Just booked flight Manchester to Cologne 75 basic. Thursday through to Sunday.

The area around the station and red light district isn’t the nicest (in fact it’s full of crack head zombies) but for some reason every Brit seems to gravitate to the shit Irish boozer, however, if you literally walk 5-10 minutes out of the area and you won’t see anymore of that.Booked up. Cheap flights due to Avios. Hotels aren’t too badly priced in Frankfurt so booked one for the three nights as a place holder. If we find something decent in Darmstadt will probably end up there. Frankfurt isn’t the nicest of places and we’re there for a couple of days for the Denmark game which will be more than enough. Going to be a good trip either way.
The fox and hounds on westendstrassepop across 8 lanes to get rest of it!!The area around the station and red light district isn’t the nicest (in fact it’s full of crack head zombies) but for some reason every Brit seems to gravitate to the shit Irish boozer, however, if you literally walk 5-10 minutes out of the area and you won’t see anymore of that.
The town centre is littered with high-end designer clothing shops and cafes etc.
Then jump in an Uber over the river to Rittegasse and there’s about 30 bars all within 3-4 roads cross crossing each other and it’s a great night out.
We went in there the other week. Stunk of chip fat and was dark and gloomy so left after one drink.The fox and hounds on westendstrassepop across 8 lanes to get rest of it!!
Yes, Sachsenhausen is the old city and full of character and great places to eat and drink. Get your pork knuckle there!If anyone is going and stopping in Frankfurt avoid the proximity of the main train station like the plague - Was there for the England game was full of spoon burners, other side of the river is great though
Isn't this more to do with Leeds having caused trouble out there previously. Probably can't be bothered with the hassle and cost of policing a pre-season game that is considered a high risk game.
I guess away fans will be in blocks X1 & X2 then.
