Bet he took a wrong turning on the way if he drives like he played.

On BBC news this morning it said coach loads of football fans returning to Sheffield had to spend the night in a church, it didn't say SUFC fans, but can't think it being any others.

Bit of a nightmare. 2.5 hours to get from VP to Meir Heath then Trentham! Didn't see one gritter. Hopefully everyone got home safely.

 

Two and a half hours for me to get back to South Derbyshire having been stuck on the A50 near to Longton for 45 minutes doesn't seem too bad now compared with the journeys of others who live more local. Hope everyone got home safely.

I had to attend a family party straight after the game, luckily it was at the first house after VP on Hamil Rd..:rolleyes:

Took us an hour just to get to the junction of Hamil Road and High Lane!! Then another hour to get to Hanley. Nightmare

Two hours from Vale Park to Biddulph. Three police on motor bikes did a great job in very difficult circumstances getting the Sheffield coaches along High Lane to Chell roundabout. High Lane very slow but safe. Chell to Biddulph was reasonable and I followed a gritting lorry through Biddulph.

I thought a lot got off lightly,just think if the snow had come down a few hours earlier and the game had been called off?

I left VP straight after the match.It was about 23:00 (ish) by time I got home in Burslem.The cold and snow had a very strange effect on my balance and my eyesight. ;)

Final whistle went, I ran an through the park (a little slippy!), left car park on Moorland Road about 17.04, reached A500 about 17.14, then the A500; scary flurries, but the road not too busy and everybody being sensible; reached home in Crewe at 17.40.

So I did OK, but was very glad to get off the roads. I'm glad you people seem to have done so too!

Wonderful game, wouldn't have missed it, especially being 12th last night.

Blimey Phil! Glad we were staying in Wolstanton overnight - I wouldn't have fancied a trip back to Wolverhampton in that.

No problems at all for me..... left VP went via Fenton to collect daughter then got back to Southampton for 10.15pm (via Andover, Hampshire) . It proves one thing British people cant drive in the snow, the weather didnt worry me in the slightest, it isn't difficult at all to drive in winter conditions if you plan your journey.

Some more tales of woe from Blades fans.
