COACH TRAVEL : Thu Feb 26, 2009 9:43 pm  

Thank you everyone who contributed to my post regarding coach travel. Taking on board your comments I discussed it with the club. After receipt of costings by the coach company and detailed talks with the club it was agreed it not cost effective to a have a coach. The coach company required a full coach throughout the season, as we could not guarantee this they withdrew the offer. We can however, if there are enough people interested get a coach at £800 a journey. Would this be worth considering if we wanted to target certain games. Would there be enough interest for a set amount of games per season?

Weekend games would probably be the easiest still, if one game is picked quite a way in advance, e.g. (I know it is way off) but Bradford on 2nd of August, this is a sunday so the trains would probably be quite bad and could be quite a vital game in terms of league position.

Thats just a suggestion but another worth considering would be running a coach for Challenge Cup away games.

How many seats do we get for £800?

42 i would imagine, cost isnt much difference for a 42 and a 24 from what i remember

would it/could it be a 60 seater? If this company are touting for business, they may well be prepared to be flexible about this.

£19 each on a 42 seater would not be that bad at all, especially for a Southern company.

What does it matter to you GF, you dont go to away matches. Leave this thread to those that leave Middx every now and again If we let you run away with it we will have facebook adverts on the coach and TNT flags hanging out the windows....

Still say the Routemaster was a brilliant idea.
