Anyway, hope you all have a rubbish day out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree but we're not going to Twickenham. Hopefully Twickenham station has completed its refurbishment it was a hell hole for the games the end of last season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it can be worse than normal! MORE people travelling in a direction = it being worse. Regarding assuming everyone coming from the west country? No, obviously not everyone, but I'd say a larger proportion of fans will be coming from the west country than any other direction. If you want to make it specific to where you're coming from, a simple "oh well, won't affect me as I'm coming from.... (wherever you're coming from)" would be been more relevant.

The Reading to Twickenham bit takes the meaning of busy trains to a whole new level! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where the people will all be going the same way. Are you really this dense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where the people will all be going the same way. Are you really this dense? Why do you assume that so many people will be coming from our part of the country? I'm also guessing you don't use the train from Bristol to London very often, because they are full every weekend with people travelling! I'm not sure why there is such excitement and the need for such a pointless thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS15_RED Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 I always drive to Reading, then get the train to Twickenham. It’s not too bad when you get on at Reading, but gets more and more packed as it picks up along the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never to the dark side Posted November 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 If I was going to Twickenham from this next of the woods,I would get off at Southall and get the bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
