Ashey Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 Been thinking about joining the Wanderers Travel Club membership, because I'm going to make a trip to 3/4 of the away games this season, now what I need to know is: Would you recommend travelling on the club coach to away games? How much is it for a membership. Information would be much appreciated.
Ashey Posted July 18, 2005 Author Posted July 18, 2005 no to be honest i was actually being serious, but nevermind, i take it u dont recommend travelling on the club coach. which (if any) club coach would you recommend travelling on to get to away games?
Traf Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 A serious answer: none. Make your way independently with like-minded fans. Use trains, planes or share a lift, but never use the travel club. How old are you?
Ashey Posted July 18, 2005 Author Posted July 18, 2005 ok, cheers. Will use trains in future. I'm 15, and no i don't want abuse for my age
Ashey Posted July 18, 2005 Author Posted July 18, 2005 ok nice one george. dont think i shall be going to any mid-week games, just saturday and sunday probably, and mainly, wherever my money will take me! overall, do you think the trains are usually cheaper both ways than the coach?
Guest ian Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 i would imagine there are very few on here who have nt used the travel club at some stage. if you cant drive and no else to drive will be as cheap as anyway of getting to away games. full of anoraks, like biffo but to be fair to the travel club lot they will go to more games than most on here, including me.
Ashey Posted July 18, 2005 Author Posted July 18, 2005 if you cant drive and no else to drive will be as cheap as anyway of getting to away games. that's me, and like you said, would be a cheap and effective way of getting to many of the away games.
Fengshui Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 Travel club is probably cheaper and you get straight to the game, but you have to sit with old moaning faggots that don't drink or take class A drugs and you don't get a police escort to the ground.
Ashey Posted July 18, 2005 Author Posted July 18, 2005 i probably wouldnt listen to all the old moaners, jus listen 2 me ipod n fall asleep . Anyway, if i was going to away games, id be going with mates, so the train would probably be the best option, thing is, i'm not that used to fannying around in the train stattion, n if u miss ur train, ur fooked, but the coach, u get straight to the ground.
bwfc_sue Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 Virgin trains work out pretty reasonable as long as its booked well in advance

Fengshui Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 Virgin trains work out pretty reasonable as long as its booked well in advance Just cause he's 15 doesn't mean he's a Virgin.

Ashey Posted July 18, 2005 Author Posted July 18, 2005 if i travelled by the train, i would probably just ask someone wearing a bolton top the way around for first couple of matches to get used to it, just get used to it gradually.
Guest as Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 I've been twice with the travel club, Ipswich away when Barry Knight fcuked us & Barnsley away in the early 90's - they had to open the end stand coz so many whites made the journey. Travel club is shite, but it'll do as a last resort. PB Once a loyal fan, now a proud part-timer
Guest The Special One Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 Are you a bit of a lad?? If so mob up with us and we could train you up
Ashey Posted July 18, 2005 Author Posted July 18, 2005 Are you a bit of a lad?? If so mob up with us and we could train you up Yeah I am, would be good to 'mob' up with u lot, only thing is, I probably wouldnt be allowed in pubs after the games as i do not look old enough!
Ashey Posted July 18, 2005 Author Posted July 18, 2005 just thinking, how well would an unofficial Wanderersways coach or two go down to transport all of the wanderersways fans to and from away games? just a thought, but if it was be expanded on, we would need a driver and have to all chip in probably.

Nah, most posters are banned

Nah, do what I do - 4 cans of Special Brew, couple of swifties at the station...then just go with the flow. The only really crucial point if make sure you've got your own bevvy supply and dont have to buy off the robbing bastards at the buffet. Actually, no - the really crucial point is not to do what I did at Norwich last year and assume there'll be a buffet. Norwich to Nottingham standing most of the way and with no booze - not good. I know what you mean about having trouble getting served in the pub due to not looking old enough :^o :^o
Ashey Posted July 18, 2005 Author Posted July 18, 2005 yeah i know kelby, used to talk to him quite a lot on msn, hardly speak to him any more. how did u link me and kelby anyway?
