Sign up for FREE now at GetToTheMatch.com Would be interested to see the level of success you have with this, and of course good luck, but for me it seems like it will be potentially logistically difficult. Particularly if you are relying on people you have never met before, it's hard enough relying on people you do know! Think I'll be sticking with either booking early on the train, megabus or driving if its a late decision to go but will keep this in mind after you've been going for a while and overcome the teething problems that most businesses have.

Thanks for your thoughts. Car share is a massive thing already, across the western world, in general life. This is a sport specific version with a bit more about each club added to the mix and we do not charge any fees to use the service. We don't aim to stop people using trains etc. It's just another option of travel, for those who it may suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
