some of the mini buses without a loo didnt seem to be the ideal transport for 16 rl fans and 8 crates of hoffmeister

We use a minibus for all of our away games (not withstanding current circumstances, obviously) and run a sweepstake for who will be the first one to ask for a comfort stop. Followed by the classic "oh, already?!" moaning, promptly followed by the other 15 also going to the loo.

As a Wigan fan in the 1960s our local coach company was Unsworths. Many a long trip over the hills to Yorkshire the years prior to the M62.

Barry Todd Coaches were often used by Trinity teams in the 80s & 90s. Wonderful bloke RIP

Ron lyles- took Batley away team and fans also Stanley garth of Dewsbury took us to cup finals from the white hart pub in batley before it taken over 

And for us older supporters, his father's company, Albert Lyles was the company of choice. He always used to sit on the front seat behind the driver smoking his pipe!

Oldham away days were done on Barlows coaches. Plenty of great sundays when Oldham would take hundreds of fans away.
