There's an area of Weston called the Bourneville, this was because Cadburys planned to build a factory in Weston and several people from Birmingham moved to Weston to work in the factory.

balderino Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 Just checked and there is also engineering work being carried out on the railway line between Bristol Parkway and Temple Meads that weekend so it will be shut. That means that anybody coming from Birmingham or all points North of Bristol by train will have to use the dreaded "Rail replacement buses" which will also add to the traffic using the limited routes into town that day. Basically anyone attending the match from everywhere except from the South, will have to come down the M32 and through town or go via the M5 to JCN19 and along the Gordano Road because the the Bristol 10K road closures! Carnage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because live football isn't allowed on tv in this country from 3pm-5pm on a Saturday. Sky have the rights and they want to show live games from the Championship on the last day, every game must kick off at the same time. TV companies control football in England, and has done for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bard Posted April 15, 2017 Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 I wonder if both us and Brum are safe they move the kick off time? Would have to be done late but a 4pm kick off would make more sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the council, who couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery on most aspects, are ignorant in their other obligations too. Would be interested to know which member of the council will be taking responsibility for anything that does go wrong. Someone mention parking problems and it will be postponed in a jiffy.
