Depends how far you’re willing to walk. 2 hours free parking in Morrisons round the corner. Plenty free parking on Huntington road. Plus not far from all the major banks if you are a RL club owner from Lancashire who wanted to acquire a giant cheque to give to charity, for example Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smudger06 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Less than 10 minutes bus ride, drops off just at the end of the street, 5 minutes, not even, to pub across road from old gaff. Not sure about new gaff obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of trains to and from Leeds, but rail links to Hull are surprisingly poor. Could be fun piling a few hundred RL fans onto a two-car sprinter with no working toilets after the game.

Typical out of town set up loads of parking obviously full of shoppers at a weekend. Is the stand opposite M&S the main stand? Looks good anyway.

Getting a train right into the centre of York, spending a few hours visiting the attractive and inviting city, then catching a bus out of town to Monks Cross for the game before returning to the city for a night out, provides a very different experience to catching a train to Newton-le-Willows and getting a bus to Leigh.

Unless you mean they weren’t working before the game either. Either way, going to a convenience before boarding the train would be my advice. On the subject of York in SL in a 14 team comp or achieved through winning the Championship final. For now I think Toulouse is the club in the best position to transition into SL. My blog: https://rugbyl.blogspot.co.nz/ It takes wisdom to know when a discussion has run its course. It takes reasonableness to end that discussion.

So the attracion is something other than having a York side in SL then. 2 warning points Non-Political Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
