| Impressions Of The Ground | |
| The City Ground is an all seater stadium with 3 modern stands and 1 stand which isn't so modern. The 3 stands are 2 tier while the old stand is a single tier. There is a scoreboard that doesn't actually show the score which is a bit pointless. The stadium is right next to the River Trent, you may be pleased to hear that away fans are located around the other side! You can also see Notts County's Loop Meadow as it's on the opposite side of the river. | |
| Directions To The Ground | Leave the M1 at Junction 24 and take the A453 towards Nottingham. Then take the A52 East towards Grantham and then into the A6011 into Nottingham. The ground is situated by the A6011. |
| Pub Guide |
| There are a few places that are worth a look.
Firstly the Stratford Haven is quite busy and allows home and away fans in. Also the Larwood & Voce, which is just down the road from the Stratford Haven. Most other pubs are best avoided |
