Im sure I read somewhere that the club were providing transport to away matches.Does anyone know if this is still the case?

Happy Haslam mentioned the supporters thing that aint the trust doing something, but seeing as all the games are the wrong side of the pennines it would be cheaper to get a train as its about a tenner from Swinton on a sunday.

York away on Feb 12th coming up at £16 return from Manchester.Add on costs of getting from york station to ground and travel time think it would be easier to go by coach.

The problem is, as it has always been when talking about away travel, is timing. some pepl want to just do the game and nothing else. some ppl want to make a day of it and have a few beers. cant see it taking off and being a viable option from a money front.

I remember at Whitehaven last year being dumbfounded by the number of people who had travelled separately in cars from Swinton.I think im correct in thinking what was suggested was a travel club with a membership so surely this would prove whether it was viable or not.

I'll text ryan and see what he says.

Spoke to ryan and chris haslam is supposed to be sorting it out. if it gets there for opening time and then gives us time for a couple afterwards i'd use it. but if its a there and back jobby i'll make my own way.

Can I request a stop in Hastings?

[duffymoon]

Would imagine it would be just for the game and straight back.The first game is only 4 weeks away so if something is being organised it needs to be asap so it can be decided whether its viable or not.

Theres no point for me doing that. an away trip is a full day out of the house for me. means i'd have to spend time with the mrs then. lol
