  1. Less trains don't stop at FAW maybe less THROUGH trains stop at FAW.

    All Cardiff/Portsmouth/Cardiff stop at FAW

    ALL

    BTM to Gloucester/BTM local trains stop at FAW

    The reduced services are the Weston to Bristol Parkway local stopping trains

    The Weston to Bristol Parkway services now go Weston to Severn beach which is better in my opinion as it serves more local stations.

    If its any consolation, I have suffered as well because now trains terminate at FAW I have less trains to get me home to Bristol Parkway

    As regards what you call extra lines these were reduced from 4 to 2 lines in the mid 1970's and then reinstated recently

     

     

     

  2. I noticed we were last on for the Rotherham game,and we normally are at the ass end of the highlights,and only a few seconds long

    Regarding the kick off times of the five championship games

    Sky have stated that the full live will be announced up to January 2025

    So if all five games are put on at 12:30pm up against BT/TNT prem game

    There will be no need to adjust fixtures

    If the five games are spread over fri/sat/sun/mon OTHER fixtures MIGHT have to be re-arranged

     

    The reason I stated about the ITV/AGM on thursday is the fact that in my opinion ITV would only have friday and saturday games to show highlights

    OR they will have a second highlights show on Monday/Tuesday.

    So I will ask the question about HIGHLIGHTS coverage to see what the situation might become.

    On the first weekend of the season 2024/25 we will be away due the balloon fiesta taking place

    I think on that weekend only, it WILL be fri/sat/sun/mon as there are no prem games

  3. Sheffield Wednesday(LOSE) at Sunderland

    Plymouth(WIN) home to Hull

    Birmingham(WIN) home to Norwich

    Then it won't be so far to travel next season(23/24)

    See all you hoards at Stoke next Saturday and don't forget for those using the trains

    Stoke City ground can be seen on the right hand side in direction of travel above the embankment by the green footbridge if the train ain't going to fast.

    Suggest reserving a seat/s as all the trains heading north start their journeys at Plymouth 

    As the train/s will be pack make sure you stock up with yer bottles of pop, chocky bars, sandwiches and liquid refreshments before you board the train.

    Could  we really win their for the sixth time in a row? we must be their bogey side,so lets hope it continues

    For all you hords that are using the train from BTM or Bristol Parkway have the tickets issued from Parson Street

  4. I think football is still adjusting to the effects of Covid,but its this coming season that does concern me.

    With five of the Saturday 3pm Championship games being moved for live television coverage

    I can see less season tickets and match day ticket sales be purchased.

    I still think that the five live planned games will all be kicking off at 12:30pm on saturday

    I might find out a little more when I attend the ITV AGM meeting this coming Thursday

  6. NP did a Q and A at senior reds,two of the questions asked were,

    1) When asked about corners being taken,what does,one left arm up,one right arm up,or two arms up,mean? ITS FOR THE FANS was the reply.

    2)Asked about playing out from back and it not being popular with fans,he said neither was he,as players in the EFL are not clever enough.

    Could you ask him if he has he changed his thoughts on his comments at Senior reds?
