City announce trial bus scheme for home games

It’s £5 for a day ticket it’s only £2 for a single I think, those prices are changing as well with the Bee network as well.

The tram from Shaw to Monsall is £3.90 return. £8 seems steep.

Are they going to put the Tuck Shop at the back (of the bus) like they used do with the Train Specials?

I remember queuing for ages only to eventually find out everything had been robbed.

Blame @mancityvstoke , the robbing ****; )

Yeah but you've got to walk though Monsall to the stadium!

Good for me if I can find somewhere to park in Hyde. My only concern would be finding a seat on the way back.

That is the down side. Takes me about 25 mins when I do it. The real down side is the other people on the tram!

That’s where the bus sounds more appealing.

Then you’ve got to get to the stadium, Im using the normal bus drops me off at Miles Platting so 15 min walk to the south stand in the rain I’m soaked as I get there, then I have to walk back which takes a bit longer with the crowds leaving I have two buses to get if I miss the first connection I have one more otherwise I’m walking from Oldham to Royton, get home about 1130pm, this will get me home at least 30 mins earlier and hopefully drier.

I've got some good news and bad news for you. Good news is I'll happily give up my seat for a deserving FOC, especially a blue FOC.

Bad news is i won't be on that bus, sorry; )
