    Clashes with the geegees I think. If I'm going to York that day, it will be for the races. Went to the corresponding meeting last year

    I posted: Good day out is York.

    I didn't know it was the races that day, maybe not such a good day out :(.

    Great day is that York meeting, far better than a boring football friendly.

    What? Get out of here. I love a day at the races. I enjoy my football but give me a day at the races any day of the week.

    Some thing I've never fancied, I went many years ago from the Dovesdale WMC to Recar the Andy Capp handicap, and it was worse for louts and drunks than an away day with Bradford City, now our lad loves a day out and a bet on the gee gees.

    York races is terrible these days, too many amateur drinkers and wannabes, half the decent pubs don’t let racegoers in either...Far better at Ripon, plenty of boozers in the town, a steady walk along the canal to the racecourse, and never really any big queues for the bar or bookies. Reasonably priced too.

    I find York and Donny tend to be a bit of a magnet for tossers at the races.

    Agree with Nottsy, Ripon and Thirsk are great days out at the races!

    Easily stayed away from at York racecourse....we always go in the infield at York, costs about £20 less can still get near the finish line, perfect view of the screen, nice atmosphere and most importantly you can take in your drink. My stag do we walked in with plenty of cans and didn't have an issue.. Went with couples last season and they were even helpful enough to pour wine bottles into special plastic ones for you...no need for £40 tickets and £5 pints
