Official Supporter coach passengers- what to expect? (1 Viewer)

ohitsaidwalker king power · Jan 4, 2013

Hi all... we are going via supporters coach tomorrow... wasn't first choice but it is the cheapest and most convenient?
Not sure what to expect.. leave at 10:30? Is it a straight there, off coach into ground scenario, or does the coach arrive well in advance with time to savour the local cuisine etc?
Can you leave belongings on coach, what happens post game...do they allow reasonable time for return? Are the coaches close to the ground?

Sorry.. bit of an anal post just a little unsure as to expectation as usually travel independently.
Thanks

They usually drop you off directly at the ground or a short walk away depending on the ground and always seem to aim to arrive there 2 hours before kick off (1pm). I've left things such as food and drink on the coaches for the way home but I personally wouldn't leave any valuables. As for going home they tell you to go straight back to the coaches after the game as they set off ASAP so no time for a pint or takeaway etc after the game.

If you're a big fan of bingo, you'll love it.

Just a normal coach journey, drops off and picks up just outside the ground

A big long thing with wheels and seats. As a supporter I wouldn't expect anything less.

Its also fine to leave personal belongings on the coach such as IPADS, cash, laptops and cameras. TAKE EVERYTHING OFF THE COACH MAN!

Last time i went to spurs the coach crashed into a car (women driver),,,,,any of you guys on that bus? It was the delayed kick off where we stayed up ??

And here was us thinking club officials delayed the KO just to piss Sunderland off again !!!

Being on that coach was like a scene out of final destination.

A guy also pissed into a newspaper on the way home on our coach so whatever leg room we had was taken by keeping our feet off the ground to avoid piss making its way up and down the coach.

I am on the train tomorrow btw!

Deliverance according to Gray....?

ohitsaidwalker king power · Jan 4, 2013

God I wished I hadnt asked or booked it now!!!:facepalm:

They're alright as you don't get stuck on the coach with the twats (theres always atleast one!)

I've travelled on them many times and have rarely encountered problems (although i know people that have).
