ham2 Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Hello TC people, I need someone with ''Sheffield knowledge'' to help me out, any replies welcome:- I am going to the Hallam FM Arena on Friday but need to park in the Meadowhall Centre car-park (wife and daughter mk11 going shopping/cinema). Me and daughter mk1 will leave Arena at about mid-night ish? to meet up with car and family. Questions- 1) Is there a specific car park at Meadowhall that will be open this late/long ? 2) What's the best way to get to said car park from the Arena at that time of night? Cheers, Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judyf Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 best bet to park in the sainsburys part of meadowhall (which is to the left on the round about when heading into meadowhall) only really the multi story bit that closes, all the "out in the open " parking open all nite, think meadowhell closes at 10pm tho, (shops that is) best walking to the arena only take 10mins max, and you get to walk past mcdonalds & pizza hut!!! best way to walk is back uotp the round about (with the petrol station on it) turn right and just follow the road untill you get to pizza hut turn left into the "enterainment centre" where the cinema and all the food places are, by this time there will be a sea of people. hope it helps. and have a good un.

tordijarres Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 ...you could use the Supertram- the terminus is Meadowhall, and there's a stop at "centertainment" (which is the Don Valley/Arena stop). Here is a website link, you can put journey planner in. I suppose it all depends if it's pis$ing down/snowing as to whether or not you want to walk it or not... http://www.supertram.com/journeyplanner.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ishy Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 I thought there would be more talk and hype about the new format and who's going. Should be one heck of a show, even better than pervious years now they can run it to suit the spectator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too sure how well the tickets sold as they have still been advertised up untill just before christmas and thought it is usally sold out well in advance, shame if there isn't a good turnout therefore not making it viable if they don't get a world championship round in future.

Andy Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 I'll be heading down tomorrow and I'm really looking forward to it. Without those muppets at Octagon making the rules it should be even better than normal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nigel dabster Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Should be there as I've got the tickets looking for them at the moment........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cota kid Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Unfortunately, due to a prior engagement, I will not be going. It will, as ever, be one hell of a night, the new format for the event looks very promising indeed. It is a big pity that Bou and Dibs are not on the 4 bangers, that would have been the icing on the cake. Oh dear, I appear to be getting withdrawl symptoms, I wonder if I can break my prior engagement? Anyway, as ever, good luck to Doug, he will need to be riding to this best of his ability, what with Cabestany on top form at present , Raga the current dominate force in the indoor WTC and Bou always capable of an upset. It should be a fantastic night. Dabster, be a luvvy and text me the results. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougie pumpkin Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Me and a few of the mates are going, i look forward to this all year. Should be an awsome nights entertainment, i agree with Andy in that i will be better than normal, no one is under any pressure and several riders are moving teams after the event, so no one has anything to lose, there should be some real showmanship.. Heres to Dougie to win tho !!! Have fun chaps !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
