Travel
By Train - You will have to change at either Sheffield or Doncaster before the second part of the journey direct to Exeter St. Daivds Station. Check out Train times and prices etc before journey. Booking a place would be advisable as Exeter is a fairly popular place in the summer and many people will be trying to get there as well as you.
By Road - Leave the M5 at Junction 30 and follow signs for Exeter City Centre along Sidmouth Road up to Heavitree Road. Take the fourth exit at the roundabout into Western Way and then the second exit onto Old Tiverton Road, then turn left into St James Road.
Tiger Travel - Tiger Travel are running coaches to all Away games again this season. Call the club on 575263 for details.
Away Accomodation
Terracing And Seating - The uncovered St James Terrace runs the full width of the pitch, but is extremely shallow and a good view is hard to find. The covered Grandstand houses Away Supporters seating, and there are a few pillars which obstruct your view of the pitch, but the stand is not particularly low, so your view will be ok otherwise. The stand does not however run the full length of the pitch.
Food And Drink
Pubs - Steven Morris of Exe Web writes:
The Duke of York is sometimes cited as the one for away fans to avoid, although I have seen very little trouble in there myself. The Brook Green is on Well Street very close to the ground. Another
friendly pub of note (and my pre-match watering hole) is the Bowling Green on Blackboy Road. When approaching the ground up Sidwell Street instead of carrying straight over towards the ground head right up Blackboy Road and you should be able to see the Bowling Green on the hill. Opposite a bowling green, no less! Other pubs good for food are the Printer's Pie on Sidwell Street nearer the City centre and for those of you who may travel into St. David's on the train, you'll pass The Imperial. Which is a huge, grand Wetherspoons jobby.
Thanks to Steven Morris
Food - Food is available in the ground and is highly reccomended - It is not costly and very tasty (apparently)!
