ollywhyte Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Decided now to go to this one - just not how I'm going to get there! Supporter coaches look to have sold out - issue I've got is my car isn't the most reliable of vehicles and travelling up from Plymouth makes it that bit harder as well. Usually drive to Bristol and coach from there. Train prices look ridiculous as well. Does anyone put on a coach away from the club? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter O Hanraha-hanrahan Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 You can join a group called Sams Cider Bus on Facebook. Don’t know if they’ve sold out spaces yet but might be worth asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really shouldn't be that hard to get the cheapest option to use the train. Still annoys me that you have to dig around of ways to get it cheaper. Should just be able to ask for the cheapest option from Plymouth to Bolton. Fair play for making the journey mate. Great effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never to the dark side Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 The 11:00 arrival at Manchester is the 08:00am from bristol temple meads which starts at Bristol temple meads If you get off at BTM for the 08:00am service you can have the pick of the seats and no changes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donnydan Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 Hi guys, first time poster here. Will be there on Saturday and should be on the coach to Bolton/Horwich around 1130AM from Manchester. Can imagine these buses being packed with a few city on board, hopefully they have enough space for us all. Hoping for a good result, 4 points form 2 imo will be seen as a great start. Come on you reds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
