The Town Hall Tavern near the Courts is well populated by Yorkshire Mags and others on a match day. See their web site for details.

Loony,
e-mail on the way in the affirmative concerning ticket. Please say you still have it.

So where are you all planning to meet before the match tomorrow ? Town Hall Tavern or elsewhere ?

I need to know so that Pit Bill can collect his ticket !

Haven't been able to talk to Screacher yet today Loony, so if nowt else comes up, the Town Hall Tavern sounds as good as anywhere. Will let you know soon as I do.

Hmmm THT is on the Headrow. Parking in town will be a real bu99er 3 days before Christmas. Loony, do you have a phone? I'm on 07967 275792 and will have it in the car on the way down. ETA 12:30-13:00 depending on traffic and weather. If all else fails, I have to meet Mungo ootside "Peacock" at 14:45 to pick up Clarky's ticket (but divvent tell Clarky lyek - Aah wannit ti be a surprise). I presume "Peacock" is a pub or other obviousl landmark at Elland Road.

Screach - no mobile for this backpacker. Completely understand you won't want to be driving anywhere near town centre - though without up-to-date knowledge I personally wouldn't be confident of getting a drink near the ground. Am aiming to arrive in Leeds around same time so will give Alan & yourself a bell then. Peacock is right next to the ground, very near the away end if memory serves me. Possibly called the Old Peacock ? Worst comes to the worst I too will be outside there 2.40ish to pass ticket to Pit Bill in a clean brown envelope. Or a dirty brown cantaloupe if preferred. Have a safe journey down and steer a wide berth of anyone dressed as KKK. Over and out
