“Not accessible” ??

Maybe if you travel by horse and cart it might be a bit inconvenient but for most people having a quick blast down the motorway or taking a nice short train ride to get there qualifies Leicester as quite an accessible destination

Well over two hours on the train and none are direct. 3 hours on a lot of the trains for the mickey. It may be accessible but its certainly not a choice with the fans in mind.

It’s an hour and a half away on the coach/minibus. One interchange at Sheffield or Crewe on the train. We’ve had numerous midweek games at Leicester in the Cups and it’s piss easy to get there. I’m really looking forward to it.

Our fans are so weird about kick off times and venues. We live on a little island, nothing on the entire island is that far away, and this is only down the road.

It is about 2.30hrs by road and cheapest tickets are £56 each on the train.

As it is up for the FA to select it and we haven't been drawn away to play them, it would be a ludicrous venue, and there was horrendous traffic in 2013/14, it is never a good journey once you come off the motorway.
 
No chance it would be played at Blackburn as they are a championship team so their ground would be deemed inferior by the powers that be in the Premier league.
 
I forget a lot of our fans (on here) are from cheshire and high peak, so to them leicester is as far a drive or a single train ride as Manchester is ;-)
