Never to the dark side Posted March 5, 2023 Report Share Posted March 5, 2023 Maybe a lot more, thats 25 per cent of the fans that went to the match. These are my observations,I expected to be not allowed to leave the lane area by the away end like last time. So a big thank you to all those concerned. If you were one of the early leavers you might have got on the 14:30pm Cardiff departure to BTM(NOT via Bristol Parkway) The 14:31pm was via Bristol Parkway for BTM I arrived at 15:05pm from Grangetown and the the 15:00pm to BTM had already left The nine coach football special was due to depart at 15:10pm and left at 15:21pm calling at Filton Abbey wood and BTM only,rough estimate there were 700 fans on this special train The 15:18pm to London via Bristol Parkway departed 15:23pm which was the train I was on, arriving at Bristol Parkway there were approx 50-60 City fans alighting at Bristol Parkway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphindevon Posted March 5, 2023 Report Share Posted March 5, 2023 I caught the 15.00 Penzance train that seemed to stop everywhere (except Parsons Street.) But did stop at Teignmouth, so nice to have an away day with no train changes either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weepywall Posted March 5, 2023 Report Share Posted March 5, 2023 The football special was awful, really overcrowded and when it stopped at Filton people couldn't get off as they had to exit from a certain carriage and they couldn't get to it. Terrible awayday yesterday like a throwback to the '80s. I've travelled a lot over the years but don't think I've seen so many police at a game, no pubs open, you are made to feel like a criminal just for going to a football match. It was my first visit to that ground although done Ninian Pk a few times and I've no desire to go back. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
