I'm going down to Nottingham to play at DTD at the weekend. Our flight gets in early so I was wondering if anyone could tell me where I should be heading from the airport to chill out at a pub? Somewhere with a bookies nearby and showing skysports would be sweet.
Any suggestions appreciated.

Nice. Bookies nearby? How far from airport? Airport is miles away, Hooters is an option but I can't think of a bookies near it. My reccomendation would be to go to the southbank or TBI in Bridgford (my locals lol) both have multiple sports screens and have a ladbrokes on the corner right near them. They are right near the Forest, The river trent and cricket grounds for a bit of local culture lol. You will get zero trouble here as this is middle class side of Notts. If you want to go into Nottingham they are quite a few options off the main market square which has a Laddies on it and Walkabout is a 5 minute walk away. |
