I'm banking on them not needing to stop en route as it's a relatively short journey.

I remember from seeing the old club at Earlsmead that the ground is in a pretty tight space surrounded by houses, so it would be worth the coach people checking the access options. I don't know if its easier to find in daylight, or better signposted these days, but it seemed to be one of these grounds where you could be really close without spotting how to get to it.

This is going to be a really tough match. Same level and similar record to Cambridge last season when we played them, but we are away from home this time.
They don't seem to score many goals (12 in 9) but defence is pretty tight too, just a goal a game.
We are going to need a "Bedford" performance.

Hope you mean Bedford away!

You are right we need to play the way we can, so far this season our best performances have come when opposition teams have come at us, so being the underdogs should help us this week.
