Bristol City away guide.

Last updated : 13 October 2006 By ChalkDust

About the Ground
Crewe are on the road after two back to back wins at home. Next stop is Bristol City and Ashton Gate. Last time out at Ashton Gate Crewe took a 2-0 lead only to draw 2-2 back in November 2002. The ground holds 15,000 and is an all seater and is looking to expand to a 30,000 capacity.

Where to Drink
Right then no alcohol is served in the ground but there are a few pubs you can try near to the ground. Two pubs near to the waterfront are The Pumphouse and Nova Scotia and two other pubs worthy of a mention are Hen & Chicken and The Rising Sun but a pub which is only a few minutes away is The Robins Pub this was an away pub but has become a home pub more recently.

Travel

By train

The nearest station is Parsons Street, which is ten minutes from the ground, but for the main station Bristol Temples Meads is better the downside is that it is two miles away from the ground.

By coach
The official coach leaves at 10 am cost £14 members + season ticket holders and £15 non-members.


By Car
Distance from Crewe to Bristol is 139 miles.
Leave the M5 at Junction 18, travel along the Portway (A4) following signs for the Bristol Airport/Taunton (A38). Over the swing bridge (Brunel Way), branching left into Winterstoke Road, and you will see the ground on your left. Parking at the ground is for permit holders only, so it is a case of finding some street parking.

For the Away fan
Crewe fans will be situated in Wedlock Street stand which has a capacity of 2,800 and the facilities are pretty normal like many grounds. The famous Chicken Balti pie is available in the ground along with the typical stadium food.
