Transport alert

Season opener

August away ends sell out early and summer engineering works are common. Book travel as soon as tickets drop — everyone is keen in week one.

Ground note

Getting out of Norfolk after an evening game is hard — the last train west is early.

The away allocation is in a corner with a slightly restricted view from the front rows.
