Default Where to watch the match on Saturday...

Ok, I've found the perfect place for me as I'm staying south of the bowl.

The place is a pub called THE CLOCK TOWER & it's not far at all from the bowl.

I phoned them and they confirmed that they are having the match on a big screen on Saturday plus they say they've got a gorgeous beer garden. Bring it on!

If you wanna know where it is just go to:

Google Maps

& put in the postcode MK4 2AS.

See some of you there hopefully.

Hey, we are going to be watching in the town centre as well, is the bowl close enough to walk to from the town? if not then how much would a taxi be as we are planning on leaving the car parked in the town...or is that a bad idea lol

Cool! Hopefully see you there. I'll be the one with a big England Flag on my back with "BON JOVI HAVE A NICE DAY TOUR 2006" on it!!!

Oh and bezza123 - I know it says 3.1 miles from the pub to the bowl but if you look at the way it takes you it's well out of the way. If walking it looks much much shorter. Click on satellite and you can see how close the bowl is.

I'll be sure to come up and say hi!

When i did the route planner, using the Bowl's postcode (MK5 8AA) it said only 1.3miles.
