PLAN AHEAD: The ground guide for Pride Park, where Wolves will play Derby County in the Championship on Wednesday 2nd March. If your planning ahead, this should be all the information you need. New Page 2

WHEN - Wednesday 2nd March, 8pm Kick Off. (re-arranged game)

PRIDE PARK - Pride Park is a new stadium and is built in the common "new stadium" fashion.  (Click here for a map of the area) The stadium was built in 1997, before that Derby played at the old Baseball Ground.

Visiting Supporters are housed in the South stand. Wolves have been allocated 4,000 tickets for the games priced at £25 Adults and £13 Juniors.

WHERE TO PARK - Visiting Supporters can park on the Derby Tertiary College with a charge of £4 usually in place. The car park is a short ten minute walk from the ground. If the car park is full then fans are advised to park in the City Centre and walk to the stadium.

TUBE/TRAIN - Derby Train Station is a short 15 minute walk from Pride Park. The stadium is well sign-posted but if any doubt, follow the crowd.

WOLVES TRAVEL CLUB - The Wolves travel club departs from Molineux at 4.30. Tickets are priced at £10 adults and £8 Juniors.

EAT AND DRINK - Alcohol is served in the ground (roughly £2.50 a pint) and there is a selection of pubs to chose from. The Merry Windows opposite the station is one for away fans. There is also the The Brunswick and the Alexandra (turn right outside the station) for real ale fans. However, as per usual with Wolves fans, Police may have informed the bouncers on the door to deny access. Pubs in the City Centre may be another option, especially if you want a bite to eat as Derby is full of the usual fast-food takeaways.
