Train to Yeovil

[Yeoboy]

Yeovil fan here -

Tried to post this last night but account would not activate.

For those who were thinking of going by train or will be in the future dont get off at Yeovil.

Get off at Sherborne ( last stop before Yeovil )

Its a small Abbey town, plenty of old traditional pubs all just minutes walk from the station.

Taxi rank is located outside the station ( Beaver Taxis 01935 816620 )

The ground is an 8 mile taxi ride from Sherborne but you will get there quicker than if you go to Yeovil Junction.

all my friends that are going are doing this after the horrific tale of last season. I would also be doing this is I had of gone to the game today, but charity calls today

Top info from your goodself

never posted before but as I live near Sherborne I thought I should.The Yeovil fan is right.Sherborne has nice pubs and good food but the taxis are very few and far between.If it were me I would go to Yeovil by train and try from there but leave yourself plenty of time 'cos it's miles away and central Yeovil gets very busy.
Good luck and see you all there.

Last season there were no taxis at Yeovil Junction, so perhaps the advice to go to Sherbourne might be a good idea. At least you can wait in the boozer until your taxi arrives!

My point exactly !

Why sit at an empty railway station when you can sit in a pub..

Phone & order the taxi before hand..

Oh & turn left out of the Sherborne station & head to the Digby Tap...2 minute walk & the oldest pub on the planet...great ales too !

I don't disgree Yeo,Sherborne is great and I know the Digby Tap,very good pub.I haven't had much luck with Sherborne Taxi's though and I never said sit at the station,there are loads of pubs in Yeovil within walking distance of the station where you could wait.If 50 people turn up in Sherborne 25 won't make kick off.It's my opinion take it or leave it

Yeovil really is in the middle of nowhere, isn't it!

Cheers for the info thou mate

Alternatively, you can drive there, and spend an HOUR waiting to get out of the car park after!

A thought just occured to me. Yeoboy, you're not the LANDLORD of the Digby Tap, are you?

Fair play if you are....

I had a good friend who live in and attended Sherbourne School for Girls. She was nicknamed Flora, as she was easily spreadable.

Wish i bloody was !

Dorset gull i am only giving an option...like i said if the taxi is pre-booked it wont be a problem.

As for loads of pubs in walking distance from Yeovil Junction ? Yeah a 3 mile walk along a fast,dangerous lane with no pavements.

Im just helping out you Gulls fans thats all. I now what i would do.

I don't think so. But I would not mind meeting this Wendy Dean.

Well we went drinking in Sherborne and it was rather pleasant. Visited about 6 pubs, a couple were a bit ropey, but most we very good. 7 seater cab took us to the ground, for 20 pounds, picked us up from Asda after the game, a beer in Sherborne, then train to Salisbury, a couple of pints then somehow got home.

we had to get a 10 pound taki to a pub called the ARROW
