    If you're going on the train, i'd suggest getting a early one and then you will be less likely to be part of the group rounded up at the station and made to go somewhere without any say.

    I believe trains arrive from Barnsley into Sheffield at half past the hours and so from 11:30 i'd expect police to be around. Get the train that arrives in Sheffield at 10:30 and leaves Barnsley at 10:00.

    Well if you're getting into town at that time The Bankers Draft will be about the only place . At markets end of town, opposite Primark... full of rough looking "regulars" *.Quite cheap though. Would expect Police to be crawling all over the placce though. I'm heading the other side of the ground... meeting some Blades fans in The Sheaf View (real ale pub)

    * I think they actually sleep there

    10 mins to ground from station , 10 mins into ............

    ........ city centre from station, 15 mins from city centre to ground, on average, but it's a big city mate so can be longer depending where you are!

    Pubs near ground, be careful, it can be dodgy, as can the walk to the ground from the station and especially the walk back in the dark.

    Generally you will be ok for a beer in most places with no badges/colours on if not in a big group and you keep your gob shut but just be aware it's not the most welcoming of places to visit

    So you're hoping the 2pm train is on time, arrive 2:30 and the walk to the ground, to be there for ten to three lol.

    Isn't it easier just to change trains at Meadowhall. Must be 1 every 10 mins from Platform 1. Prob contain both Sheff U and Barnsley fans, so can't be seperated, and all the hooligans will already be mooching around Sheff.
