First fuck up Match bus 13 seems the driver got timings wrong and has done an 8pm ko, we saw it leave with no one in it! So he’s gone all the way to the Ethiad with no one on the fucking idiot, everyone scrambling round to get to the game I’ve had to get the bus to Ashton then the tram will miss ko :( he better take us back for free.

It was at broadway /mough lane stop bang on time. Thought it was a bit empty , but then it’s the first time I’ve used it. About 15-18 folk on it I reckon?

Can anybody provide some feedback on the bus to and from Oldham please.
Does it get full as I would be looking to get on at the Failsworth stop?
Also, is it feasible to make it in time for the return trip from SS3? Don’t want to leave before the final whistle!

I’m on the shaw bus tonight, I’m in 316 and I’m gonna have to leave before the end as I don’t think I’ll get from row P to briscoe lane in 25mins…

Very little chance catching from SS3 if you stay till the end and give the boys a round of applause.

We have managed it twice - just

Go on the whistle but be at bottom of tier 3 at the time you’ll do it

1848 is the time on my ticket fella, and I messaged the missus at 1849 when I’d got on it according to WhatsApp.

He must’ve fucked off early and just sat at the next bus stop pal, at least 20 blues at Royton and god knows how many at shaw left stranded pal :(
 
13 left briscoe lane bang on half ten, by my reckoning that’s 20mins after FT. No chance id have made it in that time.

See the replies to that, seems the original one did go early and then a second was sent which explains why he got to later stop on time.

Second one never came our way mate god knows what happened anyway I’m on it home now
 
Bus 3 fucked it today as well. We arrived 10 mins early at the stop only to find out we'd missed it by 5 mins. Thanks to the lads with who we shared an uber to the ground.
Pulled the driver on the way back who says he was given the wrong timings and he was in fact 15 mins late by those timings. Let's hope they can sort that shit out pronto.
 
Got the 13 for the first time tonight and it was great (got on at broadway at which point the driver had realised he had been given wrong times) back home in bed an hour after full time. although I also had it leaving after 20 but that’s plenty enough for me
 
used it today to get in from Hale. was the noisiest and most bone juddering bus I’ve ever been on. journey time was 1 hr 20 minutes total. bus driver was friendly enough though. will use the train/tram next time which takes less than half the time.
 
Sounds like drivers were told to work to timings for an 8pm KO.

Hope no one gave them too much shit. Looks more like a control mistake than the individual drivers.
