Coach travel to Flyde
« on: February 16, 2023, 09:04:18 AM »
 :bus: :bus: :bus: :bus:

Does the club want supporters to attend the away fixture on 25th at Flyde ??  well lay on a coach, charge a reasonable amount and it will be full, flyde themselves have organised a coach to us and they have lower home attendances than us !!

Nice thought but a 400 mile rounds trip will not be cheap

 :glum:

 the chairman got back to me directly and said at about £2400 to have a coach tickets would need to be about £60 each, so its a no go, so ive decided to ride my motorbike and make a weekend o fit and visit Blackpool which is only 10 mins away.  Hopefully the prediction's of snow and heavy frosts next weekend do not occur.

Good to his word the Blackley coach is provided by Steve   I hope it will be full...

£2400 must include 5 star ALL INCLUSIVE friday and saturday night stayover! What absolute bull!
I suggest that SC prints that particular alleged quote for all to ridicule the coach company or him for NOT printing it.
Obvious the club needs a REAL Supporters Club (seperate from the club) to take on (again) getting supporters to away games but NOT as a substantial profit making scheme.

Gordon chilvers....its not mini-bus prices anymore🤔
For example was quoted over £40 taxi fare k/lynn -Terrington
Last week... I do believe the club use grays from Ely?
So doesn't surprise me as they are a  5 star transport👍

I believe Eagles coaches of Castleacre would be a good choice and I think the ladies
team use them. Gorden is right we need a proper supporters club its no good expecting
the club to arrange transport.

I rang round and got a coach company that does the Norwich city away matches they would have done the trip for a 50 seater for £1800 but are now booked up for the day, but how about Darlington in April ? they quoted a similar price , Norwich like all other good community clubs subsidise coach fares to encourage supporters to go. My sons told me they where charged £30 last year to go to Newcastle close to Darlington. If the club are serious about getting into the EFL, they need to do something if they want to build a fan base.

But at the end of day I hope the coach to Brackley is full, to prove to the Chairman that there is a potential solid fan base, if the coach is less than 3/4 full you can't expect the club to do it again. I am going.
