BTRFTG Posted September 29, 2019 Report Share Posted September 29, 2019 I note NTTDS is somewhat silent on trains coming back going no further than Swindle. Consolation being by the time the replacement bus service gets back Parson Street will just be opening for a new day's business..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exAtyeoMax Posted September 29, 2019 Report Share Posted September 29, 2019 The last time I went to an evening game at Griffin Park, the bus either didn't turn up or was full for the return journey to South Ealing Tube, so I ended up having to walk. It's quite a distance, especially for those who might be getting a train back to Bristol at a certain time and need to use Piccadilly line. You can get a South Western train to Bristol from Brentford but it takes 3 hours with two changes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never to the dark side Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 I think the bus's replacement will only effect those travelling to Bath and Chippenham. Looks like the route will be Padd/reading/didcot/swindon non stop to BTM and NOT calling at Bristol Parkway My thoughts are for any one living nearer to the bath/keynsham aerial than bristol is to drive to BTM and leave your car at BTM When your on the bus replacements it seems ages to load up and ages to get to chippenham or Bath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appears to be on restricted sale or similar too. Maybe able to buy spares/unwanted tickets on the day from pubs etc though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offside Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 One of my favourite away trips, so I’m gutted that work commitments are preventing me from visiting Griffin Park for the last time. I’m sure we always used to get a bigger allocation than 1600, though. Are away fans still allocated the top tier or have they just reduced the overall capacity at that end?

The away capacity is always about 1,600 for Brentford. It's the whole stand, upstairs and downstairs. They can't sell every seat in top tier because of fire restrictions, but it's most of them.
