Was just about to book train tickets, but not sure if it's 100% going to be on the 27th. With the station being an hour from the ground, I might just hold off and get coach seats. Anyone have any idea when tickets are on sale for Season Ticket holders. Tried ringing the club shop, but ended up with a Ticketmaster Robot!

They will just stick it on Twitter and circulate it as soon as they know surely?

Just saves them telling everybody on the phone individually.

They are probably waiting to know how many tickets MK will allow us
They've asked for a large number

I would imagine they will go to general sale
Expect around 10000 allocation
6000 to STHs
1500 to other groups eg JSB PSL Match packages etc
leaving a scramble for the other 2500

They should do something whereby you need a Swindon ticket to be in the next priority group

First time I went I thought I'd walk from the station and pop in a boozer on the way. What a trek that was,felt like Bear Grylls !

If we get 6 per season ticket holders (mine and lads), I will be buying 12! and even that wont be enough as I need a couple more!

We will sell 2000 in first full day! Easy.

Either go to MK Central where there area number of cheap pubs and get a taxi which costs about 5/6 quid.

Or go to Bletchley and walk the 20 minute walk. It's not close, but there's usually thousands of Coventry fans walking en masse.

Will you be able to get near the ground in a taxi? Doubt my lad will manage the 20-30 min walk to bletchley... also ive seen a few ground reviews saying its hard to find pubs that allow away fans, any recommendations?

There used to be a shuttle bus from Blecthley - not sure if it's still running. Best to find a boozer, then walk back for the bus.

If you get them to drop you at the Hilton you should be fine. If it's mad busy, just hop out and walk the last bit. Don't get a cab from the rank at MK Central, it's a rip off. Use Bounds on 01908 218218. You can also book online or use their app.

The Enigma Tavern, which was a bit of a dive but close to Bletchley station and often full of away fans, has closed down FYI.

You’re best off heading to Fenny Stratford which is about 20 minutes walk from the ground. There’s quite a few bars there. Bletchley is not nice!

That's what we do. Train to Fenny Stratford, a couple of pubs plus food shops , bookies egg. Then a 15 min walk or short taxi ride to ground.
