Community Shield | Sat 30th Jul, 17:00 @ King Power Stadium

[Gingers Dad]

Now 1320. Going up all the time. It's enough to make a Seat Counter's head spin off.

Couldn't resist - 1232 now

The ticket office are obviously doing it just to discourage Seat Counters from clogging up their bandwidth.

The news everyone was dreading!

Train strike now on the 30th

Called it a few weeks ago, I knew that would happen, typical City!

Will the club now arrange more coaches?

Train strike now on the 30th

Think it was always a good chance of being that weekend once the strike action was announced earlier in the week as I think they have to give at least 14 days notice of when they'll strike. I'm glad we've booked on a supporters club coach now. Hopefully everyone who might be caught out by this gets sorted with travel.

Cross country and east midlands are not 2 of the 8 who decided to strike, these 2 firms are the trains from Manchester to Leicester so will these still be running?

 

[Blue Mist]

Quite a few fans when playing Liverpool seem to be intimidated by them . We have the same allocation lets out sing them and outplay them.

Outlining and outplayed them isn't the issue. Had we got to the final of the chumps, I may not have gone. I was in Portugal with the Chelsea fans but scousers and rags, totally different

No impact if you are travelling on East Midlands Railway, CrossCountry or TransPennine Express.
West Midlands Trains drivers will be on strike so avoid any journeys involving trains between Crewe and Nuneaton.

When they start singing ynwa at the beginning of the game we should do the Poznan start as we mean to go on

Thanks for the info.

Sure the Plastic Scousers would need to go back via Nuneaton if going back to Liverpool but as most will be going to East Midlands for flights to Oslo and Dublin probably wont affect them.

What's the next possible window (and when)? They won't put them on General Sale (as Liverpool lot could buy them) so an additional ticket for Seasoncard holders maybe?

9am tomorrow as they give some notice. Extras for SC holders. Over 1000 left so they won't sell otherwise.

 

[DunfermlineBlue]

1000ish left. It will probably sell out tomorrow with it being pay day for some people

I hope so, otherwise that's me out.

Don’t think East Midlands Railway is affected, I should be fine

I thought it was RMT again at first, their first set of strikes covered 3 staggered days.

According to the TP Express app it's replacement buses for all services between Stockport and Sheffield all day on the 30th. That'll be fun!

Still operating Piccadilly to Sheffield though but taking just shy of 2 hours diverted via Wakefield.
