Located in Sawston on the outskirts of Cambridge, you can get the number 7 bus from outside Cambridge railway station to Sawston which will take 25/30 minutes. You can also get this bus from the city centre which takes around 35/40 mins. 

Once you're in Sawston, it's a further 10/15 minute walk to Dales Manor Business Park where the ground is located. The bus back to the railway station and city centre leaves at 17:15 which is perfect for a 3pm kick off. And 22:15 for an evening kick off. Just follow the crowd. There are no shops around the ground.

The Nest, Norwich.

Admission:  £6 - including free programme.

Programme available: Yes, Included in entry fee.

Weather: Dry and a little bit blustery. Good conditions.

The Nest is a state of the art training complex used by Norwich City. You'd get the number 35 'Canary konect' bus from Norwich train station which takes 20 minutes. 

Going back is complicated as the last 2 buses are 16:23 and 17:53 on a Saturday, meaning you'd have to wait 1 hour from the final whistle of a 3pm kick off to get back to the city. Decent food is available on site.

You can get the tube to Rayners Lane from Kings Cross on the Metropolitan line to Uxbridge - taking 20/25 minutes and a little bit longer from Liverpool Street. It's then a further 10/15 minute walk from Rayners Lane tube station, to which is right next to the town centre. The ground is hidden behind houses and not the easiest to find in the dark.

Yaxley FC

Yaxley 1-3 Daventry Town.

United Counties Premier Division South.

Saturday 30th November 2024 - 3pm.

APG Park.

Admission:  £7

Programme available: Yes - £2

Yaxley is just outside of Peterborough. You can get a bus from Peterborough city centre (taking 20 minutes) which drops you in the village - around a 10 minute walk from the ground. It's not ideal though as you'd then have to negotiate a grass verge with no path along boggy fenland next to a main road. It's not the safest, especially if you're walking back in the dark. It can be done, although I'd recommend using a car if you have that option. There is a 'Premier' food store in the village 10 minutes from the ground.

The way back:
