How far do you live from Molineux?

[The Bear]

Yep, traffic can be terrible coming from north of Wolverhampton. Not sure what they’ll do when we have 45k capacity.

Now they've closed a lane of the ring road as it filters on to Waterloo Street, that can be a nightmare on a Sat afternoon.

So far I am winning 'the how far are you away' challenge, but someone will come in to beat that at some point (has to be within the UK to count - Lycan would have if he hadn't moved, but he has)

Have to debate with Parkin as to which of us is further away, guess probably him by a couple of hundred yards (he lives the other end of town, though we don't really have an awful lot of town).

As he said, 3 1/2 hours by car, 4 to 4 1/2 hours by train. Would be quicker but have to travel 60 miles east before going north, only Cross country services going north, stop everywhere. Makes a 90 minute football match into a 14/15 hour day.

About 5 miles,takes 25 minutes cycling along the canal,avoiding drunks,and drug deals under bridges on the way,off the towpath and over the bridge at the waste disposal centre,up a road,past the mosque,past the university and the delights of molineux are there.
Haven't been to a match this century though due to living in different countries Until recently,I keep meaning to visit the royal London before a match,but I'm a bit scared tbh

Used to live just outside W-ton, and matchday was 10 minute drive plus 10 minute walk. Very different to San Antonio - nobody walks anywhere and I can drive 40 miles south or west without leaving the city.

Been there too mucka, but they are a decent bunch in reality!

 

[Keef]

Yea,they don't bother me,I say alright to them,they move out the way,not pleasant if you've got kids though

 

[Banjo]

118 miles away.

Journey time varies depending on the speed of my train from London to Wolverhampton. Some stop a lot along the way, some only stop 3 or 4 times.

Door to door tomorrow will be about 2h45m each way, but when I go to evening games, the trains take a lot longer (especially the last one back, when I get home at about 2am) and it can be more like 3h30m each way.

I know these distances seem like nothing in North American terms, but if you travel 100 miles anywhere in the England, you will go past a considerable number of PL and Championship grounds on your way.

Pretty sure Cyber was talking about us lot rather than the drunks and drug dealers..

 

[Keef]

Dunno tbh,did make it sound like he'd been doing deals or drinking under bridges in the past,vague answer all round by the cyber man

 

[White Wolf]

Coming from Bridgnorth it's about half an hour drive, or 45 mins to an hour if I get the bus.

Most of the time I live in Liverpool though and Lime Street to Wolverhampton is around an 80 minute train journey.

It's LemonJelly isn't it? Honestly, as long as you don't look him in the eye he's pretty calm.

 

[sycophantia]

About 20 miles, 30-40 minutes by car depending on traffic

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

7 mins on the train to the city centre from here and a 10-15 minute walk from there.

It's about the only pleasure I get out of living in this awful country.

 

[Jolemai]

Apparently, I am 86 miles away and this should take two and a half hours by car or five hours by public transport.

 

[Tony Towner]

About 55 mins on a good day to park up and another 15 to the ground

 

[UKYankieWWFC]

When I lived there maybe a 20 minute bus ride on the 503 or 506 which was about 2 miles(ish) Unless west Midland travel have changed the bus numbers again
Now it's an 8 and a half hour flight to London and probably a 3 hour drive to Wolverhampton and is about 4000 miles!

 

[WolfmanOz]

10,500 miles (17,000 kms) approx. from Melbourne, but my heart lives at Molineux.

 

[StuardoWulf]

5.7 miles 30 mins or so depending on traffic

 

[leedswolf]

115 miles, used to take about 1hr 45mins.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

3.2 miles. 25 minutes on the number 6 bus which goes right round the houses.
