Just charge people £5 return on the bus and let them choose if they want a drink or not?
Just charge people £5 return on the bus and let them choose if they want a drink or not?Pint = £5. So you’re slagging off a return journey for a fiver. I think that’s plenty reasonable.
Told yesterday it’s £3 shuttle to or from the tavern and that it’s pre booked on their website skybluetavern.comJust charge people £5 return on the bus and let them choose if they want a drink or not?
It’s good value if I’m going up on my own. But £45 for 3 of us or maybe £23 ish return in an Uber?
Edit: The pints make it worth it actually now I’ve worked that into the cost. If I take my son can I have his pints?
I think you are missing the point of the whole thing..Just charge people £5 return on the bus and let them choose if they want a drink or not?
Told be who? It's not the caseTold yesterday it’s £3 shuttle to or from the tavern and that it’s pre booked on their website skybluetavern.com
Tried the website you can’t just book shuttle I’ll add that into the minutesTold yesterday it’s £3 shuttle to or from the tavern and that it’s pre booked on their website skybluetavern.com

...and the point of the whole thing?I think you are missing the point of the whole thing..
How is it a rip off? That's the going rate anywhere in a city centre location and by a football ground pretty much up and down the country for a pint these days. Plus the tavern and brewery fan villages are a joint venture between the brewery and the football club so you are helping the football club you love by drinking at those locations....and the point of the whole thing?
To rip off sky blue fans...as £5 a pint is too much in the first place.
We have and continue to look at all options for both the home shuttle and away days
Some things have worked, others not so great, it's a new service which was always going to have some teething issues.
I understand the principle it’s not what was said at the forum but that’s ok the place is awesome and I want every success for it as it’s just utterly briliantHow is it a rip off?

It's £15 return including two pints. It's £12 to park at the ground alone.
If you don't like it, you don't need to use it but the point of it is to get people drinking both in the tavern and also at the brewery pre and post game. There are fixed costs involved in respect of the bus and driver themselves so there is a limit as to how low the price can be set
I don't feel it's value for money with forced prices on having to take the package on drinks.How is it a rip off?

It wasn't in response to you Pete. Vox seems to think charging £5 a pint which it isn't anyway it's £15 including 2 pints and return travel is ripping the fans off and I don't quite understand how you get to that.I understand the principle it’s not what was said at the forum but that’s ok the place is awesome and I want every success for it as it’s just utterly briliant

As I said earlier take the drink part out and it's decent value just for a return bus.
Perhaps I'm spoilt from using the Sky Blue Express bus via Christ the King club at only £3.50 return and I choose whether to have a drink or not?
Can't win with some people can you. Each to their own I guess but it's not a rip off
Is there still a KFC at the Arena? Just so I can get left at that one instead.
Hi Gary, not getting in deep with this but it's the argument British rail et Al use when saying it's cheaper doing a hundred mile trip with them over running a car and doing it but isn't really and ignores economies of scale.How is it a rip off?

it’s only value if you have two pints and are on your own.
So you then ?
I think the only point people are making is it’s only value if you have two pints and are on your own. Otherwise it isn’t
I like my food hot.If anyone hasn’t been go the food is fabulous and it’s so cool
I like a three course meal.I like my food hot.
Then you have to try to find your car after, which is a nightmare when you're 8 pints down the road... I couldn't find it, and my car was the only one left there!It's £15 return including two pints. It's £12 to park at the ground alone.
I need to take my car. I'm normally too pissed to walk.Then you have to try to find your car after, which is a nightmare when you're 8 pints down the road... I couldn't find it, and my car was the only one left there!
