If you’re travelling by bus
Nottingham’s coach station, which used to be at Broadmarsh, is temporarily situated on Station Street.

Turn right onto London Road and after approximately 400m (having passed Hooters on your right) turn left onto Cattle Market Road/A6011.
Take the second right onto County Road/A6011 and you will be at the rear of the visitors’ stand, the Jimmy Sirrel Stand.
If you’re travelling by car
If you’re travelling from the STōK Cae Ras, then follow the A483 towards Chester for just over a mile, before exiting at junction six towards Gresford and Nantwich. At the roundabout, you will need to take the fifth exit onto the A5156.
Follow signs towards the A534, and then take the first exit at the roundabout to join onto the A534.
From there, continue on the road, eventually taking you onto the A51 towards Crewe. Follow road signs to join the A50 towards Derby, eventually joining the A453 from the Derby southern bypass.
From there, follow the A453 towards Nottingham.
If you are travelling to the ground, the route is well signposted (‘football and cricket traffic’) from all directions, and once you get in the local vicinity, you should follow the signs to direct you towards the ground.
Alternatively, fans travelling by car on the M1 can get to Meadow Lane by using the city’s Park & Ride tram facilities off the M1 at junctions 24, 25 and 26.
Parking is free but tram tickets must be bought before boarding the tram. The closest tram-stop to Meadow Lane is Station Street.

Supporter Conduct
Wrexham AFC wishes to remind supporters of the potential safety implications and consequences that may occur as a result of pitch incursions and other illegal and unacceptable behaviour.
As previously communicated, supporters who encroach on the pitch risk facing a Football Banning Order as well as a criminal conviction, while the Club itself could also face a fine for these actions.
There may also be other implications for the Club, including restrictions on future away ticket allocations. This is due to potential safety measures the home Club are required to put in place which impacts on the availability of seating.
The Club understands the emotion and passion that comes with attending the match as a fan but must reiterate that the safety of players, managers and supporters on both sides remains our priority.
The vast majority of fans have – and continue to – support the Club in an appropriate manner and are a credit to Wrexham AFC, but we will seek the strongest possible punishment for those who enter the field of play or engage in any other unacceptable behaviour.
As in line with the FA initiative, Wrexham AFC fully support the ‘Love Football Protect the Game’ program.
Wrexham AFC support the new measures that have been implemented to both improve participant and fan behaviour across the board.
Wrexham AFC operates a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination of any kind, and supporters are encouraged to come forward and report any incidents it to the nearest steward, the Club, or Kick it Out.
