How much should the train cost? Cheapest I can seem to find is about 40 quid per person to South Bermondsey which is the closest one if im correct?

Would prefer to drive, but whats the parking like their?

Finally coach would be fine, but are there any spaces left?

Any answers apprieciated :) , thanks

Here are the local parking facilities..

Is this likely to get busy on matchdays? And how far from the ground is it? :)

either way take your running trainers.

I am taking some spare pants in case we beat them.

haha.

anyone know about this group saver thing for 4 people, aparantly 4 train tickets cost the same as 2? :/

Yes....you need four of you and it will cost about 22 quid each.

Train for me......Helicopter off the pitch if we go up!

You can also do a group saver with a group of three people, again for the price of two tickets.

Your best bet regarding the coach would be to contact SAS travel.

SAS Travel have still got seats, just booked and paid over the phone - £13.

Whats the number?

536757

I reckon we'll be locked in for about half hour after the game.

Hopefully celebrating !!

Cheers. Left a message, hopefully manage to get a spot on the fun bus

I'd happily miss the coach back if I'm in celebration!

i'll give the coach a go then but chances are their be sold im guessing.

at the moment its me and one other anyway, any other people want to buy tickets together and get a group saver thing then?

I managed to get a coach ticket today. Its worth a go

12 coaches so far!

yeah will definately give it a go, just want a back up plan, as i'll have to buy the tickets for the game before the sas travel office will open, so will be gutted if i have to pay 40 quid each for the train. also saw something on the official site last week about sas travel being open before the brentford game then that was it, not open tuesday aparantly?

thanks

Give 'em a ring, leave a message and they should ring you back.

Its what i did anyway

have done that, thought they were only open certain evening though?

Nahh think they ring you back soon as they get your message

Your right, they just rang me, but only had 1 seat left :(

Wish i knew before, i was just planning on going to the office when it was open.

Nevermind, drive it is, unless 2 more want to go for a group saver?

Personally i wouldnt go by coach anyway,not unless they are issuing crash helmets along with a police escort...either way there will be a few squeaky bums from the west come saturday.

I'd have thought coach would be the safest way? Be under cover of the feds all the way to the m25 i' of thought

I remember being told it would be safer to travel on the offical coaches to Plymouth back in the season after the Plymouth fan was killed in Swindon.

The OB held all the coaches outside Plymouth and took them in to the ground in convoy.

The problem was that made them a bigger target for the Plymouth fans who were lying in wait with bricks & bottles.  I've never been to an away game by coach since.

Maybe group saver.  When is cutoff for doing that, or can you buy up to last minute?

I drove to that one and was walking back to the car thruogh a mob of Plymouth when they put all the coaches through just past the garage. I just kept my head down and walked. Not a pleasant day, loads of them in our end and a shit game. Mind you, next year I got there just in time to see Plymouth's finest get kicked all over their car park.  Town certainly were on form that day. 

That's my worry, great big green coaches - just duck!

Main problem on the day, if they do decide to kick off, is they're not just gonna have the regulars out that day, but the glory-hunting little wannabe hoolies. Maybe it would make more sense to get the town fans out first???

Jonathon Pearce just told us to behave on saturday :)

we played at the new den in the cup a few years ago, official supporters coach was the only way we were allowed to get there. police escort for the last 20 or so miles of the journey, locked in the away end by massive metal fencing, kept behind afterwards, police escort back out to the main road.

we won and there was no trouble, pretty low profile game though obviously, they even applauded our players off the pitch.

sorted my travel now, thanks.

Good job too, I'm sure many of us were contemplating abseiling off the upper tier for a pitched battle on the pitch a la Wendies until cautioned against such foolishness by the aging tranny-a-like. Phew, that was a close one.

Bit of a rubbish example, how long ago was that 20 odd years? I think the Old Bill will be under strict instructions to keep this one under control this weekend after the Wednesday and Luton incidents this weekend.  Any more incidents and the World Cup bid could be ruined, plus if Milwall cause any serious trouble then I think after the West Ham incident this season they would have to play there play off games behind closed doors.  I went Milwall couple of years back and we won 1-0 Ifil header and got the train back after, we saw no trouble!

Apologies for being a pedant, but it was 2-1.

Sorry losing the plot there, it was 2-1.

Fucking slave trader.  Fuck off.

Oh, and as I'm lazy and can't be arsed to post in the other thread, fuck off oxford, too.

I need two more for a group saver for the train,  anyone else not sorted yet?

Im sorted...leaving swindon at 10ish.
