    A message for Frank

    Hello Frank,I'm coming to Cambridge next Saturday to watch Notts and will be arriving around tenish,what's the parking like near the ground,are there any decent places to get a meal and are there any places of interest to visit that not too far from your ground.

    How do you feel about Shaun Derry being at the club,he got a rough deal at Notts,no money to buy players and not even able to bring in players on loan or on a free,he's rated highly by most Notts fans but that may because he's on of us,he has supported Notts all his life,I hope that he's well for you but not until after next Saturday

    If you get to the ground at ten, parking will be no problem. The ground is next to a retail park that has a lot of free parking, including Tescos. If you catch a bus into town there is a lot to do or see. It will only be about ten minutes.
    I wouldnt advise it though. Cambridge is a small place with small roads, getting out of town and down the Newmarket road where the ground is will be a big problem at two o clock, or even one. You might miss the kick off.
    It is walkable if your fit, it will take 15 to 20 minutes at a good pace. You could go punting, there is enough time.

    There are colleges to visit, or the Fitzwilliam museum which is in town. I strongly recommend the museum. There is a market, and loads of restaurants. You could hire a boat to take on the river. There are a lot of shops.

    Derry has made a good impression, i am aware of the situation he had at County. Heres hoping, best wishes, Frank.

    Beware of the "free parking" chalky. There'll be a time restriction.
