TOTAL TRANMERE – Travel and Stadium Information
Saturday 30th September 2006 – Kick-Off 3.00pm
Coca-Cola League One at Valley Parade
Deadly Submarine
Valley Parade – Bradford, West Yorkshire, BD8 7DY
(Click on the Link Above for a Map of the Stadium)
Capacity – 25,136 (All-Seated)
Away Stand Facilities - Up to 1,130 visiting fans can be housed in the two-tiered T.L Dallas Stand which is covered, all-seated and situated behind one of the goals.
Food and Drink – The Stadium is in a somewhat isolated area of the City on the top of a hill so the majority of eateries for fans are in the City Centre itself. There are no shortages of Indian takeways in the centre of Bradford as this is something the City is famous for with over 200 separate outlets in and around the City.
The nearest pub to the Stadium is the ‘Carlton’ which is a few minutes walk from just behind the Kop Stand and whilst there are a few hotels also around the Stadium that have bars, the best choice for an alcoholic beverage is again the City Centre.
