City announce trial bus scheme for home games

[gloryhuntersince85]

The reason I asked when I was a teenager back in the 80's I always used the match day buses even though trouble was almost guaranteed at every match I don't recall any trouble on the buses. CTID

I used the bus for Brentford game from Middleton and there are no checks or having to produce match tickets, so I would say it is not impossible for rags to use it.

It does say in the t&cs that you may be asked to produce a match ticket to prove eligibility though.

Obviously they won’t normally bother but they’ve got that option up their sleeve if a couple of gobby reds did try their luck.

Where you parking, seems they’ve all upped them to £15, like MaryDs etc, if your cars full it’s a no brainier but for alone driver it’s getting expensive. I agree they need to drop the price especially for kids I think it will be very popular if they do this.

PM me mate

You need to see it as a special bus service and not compare to existing bus routes and services.

They only run for the match so the cost is more. It's a bus and Driver I use for about 5 hours for 2 out and back trips.

Does your £150 cover all games for parking or just 19 league games?

It is nice going to the match without using the car and not worrying about having a drink, having the time to do it is a factor though but in your case it appears the bus option compares with your drive time wise.

yep, all home games incl cups, europe.

The Middleton bus was supposed to leave at 13.51 turned up at 14.30 only been on trial for a few weeks and they can’t get this right

Macc bus was 20mins late, plus more delay setting off cos the driver didn’t know how the ticket machine worked!

You all need to contact the Club, they need the feed back.

All buses at Connell college didnt leave till just before 6
they state 25 mins after the final whistle.
We were on the offerton one,got to Heaton chapel around 6.50 ish .
Was ok but its at the limit of my bladder capacity as a F.O.C. so if I used it again I would skip the pint at half time.
edit Just re-read your post These are the ones at connell college just seen there are lots of different departure locations .
