I hope this may be helpful to any Cardiff fans travelling by road to Derby for the game on Sunday 18th March, parking is available for away fans on 2 sites [100 and 400 yards from the stadium] at £6 per car/van [sorry no coaches]. Presuming most will travel via the M5/M42/A42, there are 2 options, you can leave the A42 at the A6 junction and travel via Chellaston and Alvaston towards Derby, at the Ring Road [Blue Peter] island go straight across in the left hand lane and continue along London Road to the next island which is signed for PRIDE PARK>>>, turn right and go to the next island, turn right and go along the front of the stadium to the next island, go straight across into RIVERSIDE ROAD, about 60 yards on the right is the FRENGER SYSTEMS car park, this is ideal for the elderly and less able supporters. For those who may wish to eat/drink before the game, continue along Riverside Road to the last unit on the left hand side, the PRIDE VETERINARY CENTRE car park is handier for the away friendly hostelries [ask the attendant for details]. After the game I would advise that you turn left out of the car park and go left round the block to avoid likely congestion should you turn right, this brings you back to the island you crossed after passing the front of the stadium. The other approach is via M5/M42/A42/M1/A52, leave the M1 at Jct25 and head towards Derby on the A52, about 1 mile past the SPONDON/ASDA exit is the slip road to Pride Park, take care as there is a pedestrian crossing and roadworks immediately after the sharp bend, go to the 3rd island and turn right into Riverside Road. I hope this helps, have a safe journey.
I wanted Bryson 3 years ago along with Johnny Russell. At least we've got Bryson for now and I see Russell has buggered off to the MLS for the dosh - can't blame him I suppose - but Bryson will do for me.
Went off injured on Saturday. Can't play against you anyway then it's international break so hopefully back after that. Hope we can find 3 for centre mids for tomorrow. Looking a bit thin on the ground. The knife is looking a shoe in.
THE GAME IS OFF, the police and safety officials have just indicated that the game has been called off due to ice/snow around the stadium and freezing conditions expected to continue during the morning.

Noooooo. They might have players back from injury and suspension by the time it' rearranged. Oh, but so will we. At least we've maintained our 7 point advantage.
Sorry about that, I have to do all of my meals 365 days a year, mind you they are guaranteed to taste better than the crap served up by my ex-wife, today it will be lamb shank, roasties, peas and swede.
if it wasn't for the snow I would have popped in for dinner dude>>>>>>>>think I can make it 2 sparkeys though if I start walking now>>>>>>whats on thy menu dude...im no big meat eater so im ok with potatoe gratin,..tenderstem broccoli and an onion and redcurrant gravy
Cottage pie from Asda, Auntie Bessies mini roasties from Tesco and maybe some frozen peas from the local Co-op in Newton. We don't half know how to live it up down here pal.
There has been no snow in Derby City Centre overnight Apparently Derby fans have been spotted using buckets borrowed from the Liberty stadium to ferry large amounts of snow from the Peak District and spread it around the ground overnight
That' cos you're retired Sparkey. Meals on wheels next. And a good job you've got your bus pass. How would you get about otherwise?
That's a pity. Made it to Hopwood services on the M42 just when BfB called me to say the game was off. On my way back home now.......
