Bus update for monday

Post by Hayden »

how many coaches are going now?
i heard people are getting turned away becuase they dont want to risk not filling it?
how about taking names or something in case you get enough?
or charging an extra £2 to make it pay?

Cannot belive they havnt sorted out a 4th coach! They would fill it if they let people know a 4th was avalible. Oh by the way oxford council arent (because of health & safety) letting us park on grass verge on the main road out of the ground ,if you do you will have a parking fine.

Why don'y some of you lot try organising coaches!

I posted a warning on here last week about people booking early to avoid this situation.

We have averaged around 33 people for away trips this year and all of a sudden we are supposed to have an infinite number of coaches on immediate standby in case extra people who have not travelled with us all year suddenly feel like going on the coach.

Yorks needed to know by first thing on Friday - surprisingly they don't have a plethora of coaches and drivers sitting around doing nothing on a Mayday bank holiday.

Sorry about the rant, but I just wish people would think a bit more before posting.

Top post RM.

However, there are supporters who have match tickets who are now struggling to get to the game so if any of you are driving and have space on your car for a couple of extras why not post it on here and let's make sure that everyone who wants to be there, can be!

Agreed RM. At the end of the day, people should have enquired earlier about coach space before buying their tickets if they wanted to go by coach. The warnings have been on here about it, so no point complaining now.

I would offer DF but there is already 5 of us crammed into a Corsa, that includes a lad who is 6ft 3 :lol:

How about a seperate thread for people who have space in their car and for anyone that needs a lift :idea:
