Upon Avon that is, not East London hell hole.
Best was to get from Stratford to the CBS and back on public transport please?

Train to Leamington then another one to the arena. Takes about an hour and a half.

What a way to say you have moved to Stratford-Upon-Avon - like your style

I’m really flattered by the offer Clint but please keep your thoughts to yourself.

There's a direct bus from SOA to the centre of Coventry, from where you could walk to the station and get the club shuttle bus. It would definitely take longer than the train but possibly less stressful than attempting to cram yourself onto the arena train

You might actually be quicker getting public transport from Stratford in east London.

Because of the near 40 minutes wait in Leamington.

It only takes 20 minutes from Leamington to get to the turnstiles.

The train to the stadium is always packed leaving Cov station, to the point where not everyone can get on - this train comes from Leamington so should get on OK there. I've always got on it on the way back but it is also packed and so infrequent that if you miss it - a la Ed Balls - it's a right pain.

Might be quicker to get a bus, which is mental. X18 takes about an 1hr 20 mins. Scenic route, innit!

Alas, poor Clint, I knew him Horratio; a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy: he hath borne me on his back a thousand times; and now, how abhorred in my imagination it is!

Stratford London is on the up. V&A East just opened and Cross Rail has upped it's transport links. All the artists priced out of Hoxton and Shoreditch have moved east, quite a few to Stratford. No longer cheap housing but you get a garden and parking.
