There has been no pay on the day for AWAY fans so far this season and there was no POTD last season for any away followers. Can't see this being changed So please make sure you buy your tickets in advance when you are at home to Birmingham City on Saturday Coming by road use M4/M5 southbound to junction 18(Avonmouth) then follow signs A4 Bristol airport It looks the long way round but its quicker. Not a good idea to use M4/M32 YOU WILL GET LOST Parking is normally in the streets around the area as long as you are there by midday ish please don't block drive ways or park on corners. Parking tickets were being handed out for our last home match If you are coming by train (from where ever) can you get the ticket/s issued to Parson Steet as it push's up the footfall at the station although it is the same price as Bristol Temple meads. Till Ashton gate halt comes on line
Trains from BTM to parson street at 12:26 13:26 13:54 and 14:26 its then a ten minute walk return trains from Parson street to BTM is at 17:35pm
Trains from Stoke on trent will be effected by engineering work due to trains being diverted VIA swindon
When you approach the ground from the winterstoke road direction I suggest you walk past wickes using the pavement as the concourse area behind the big new stand gets very congested with bodies UNLESS YOU WANT TO SEE THE JOHN ATYEO STATUE Split train tickets are available to Bristol from the London area as well as from Swansea/Cardiff area and group save is also availble on GWR trains, Group save tickets not valid on cross country trains
If there are at least three of you get a taxi from the Bristol Temple meads to the ground Make sure the taxi driver drops you in the Ashton Road end as it a very long walk round from the other end Casualty and Holby City were filmed in the City don't ask me about either of the programmes cos I think their both rubbish The young ones was also filmed in the BS7 area of the City(actually its Bishopston) Finally the block of flats on the left behind the dolman stand side as you are in the away end is "the" block of flats in "fools and horses" If your into your "STREET ART" there is loads to see in the Ashton area as we have just celebrated the upfest in BS3 Bring your camera and turn up early if you want to take any photo's Pubs possibly best one are in the cumberland road basin area novia scotia pump house and the cottage. Leave your car there and walk to the ground Buy your match day programme before you enter the away end. BBC Radio station is radio Bristol which has frequencies and 94:9 and DAB and 95:5. Radio comentary will be on BBC Bristol DAB only
In the last two visits these are the number of Stoke City fans that BOUGHT tickets for the games
2017/18 efl CUP 1,158 on a tuesday night
sat 27 october 2007 1,082
A final reminder that there has been no pay on the day for any away fans this season or last season I don't think that will be changed,so please buy your tickets in advance Can you please circulate to other Stoke City forums and message boards as well as other Stoke City followers If you want any further local info,don't be afraid to ask.

How weird that the game takes place on exactly the same date as the last league game we played at Ashton Gate 11 years ago. We lost that one 1-0 but we went up anyway in the end.
The rigid policy of no pay on the day for away fans is completely unnecessary for most games and no doubt causes local exiles from all clubs to have to sit in the wrong end, which is far more likely to cause problems than allowing them to pay to go in with their own fans.
It’s probably all about Big Brother and knowing exactly who is in the ground more than it is about spectator safety.

Nobody ever provides this information and it's arguably the thing we need to know most.

Unless of course you went through the gate the day before the game! It’s a valid question forny, he just wants to clarify if it’s possible to pay cash to get in the ground on the day..

As I said, if the policy is no pay on the day then that surely includes no cash on the day? Or am I missing something? EDIT - I get it now - the question is are there cash turnstiles for home fans. Sorry.

Few people on here really can't spot the shit jokes can they... I know... all we wanted to know is if we found ourselves at a loose end in Bristol that day is are we able to take in the Stoke match and pay on the day? Ahhh but can we pay at the ticket office? 😉😉

I missed that the first time to be fair Maybe he should have been a little clearer with that important information. Surely "no pay on the day" automatically means you can't pay on the gate? Unless of course you went through the gate the day before the game! FFS the guy says buy tickets in advance, what is there not to understand. Totally embarrassing
