When l got my tickets this morning the ST were taking bookings for the coach too.

£50 I think the price was.  Surprised they haven't announced anything although I suspect that's because they assume everyone will be going up for tickets anyway.

There needs to be something special and collectable in my opinion, akin to the use of more of the gold in our strip in the middle 8's. As others have said this could be a once in a lifetime occasion;

When Sheffield played Widnes both clubs had an area in the lower tier sort of where the corners would be if the ground was square, on the opposite side to where the tunnel is.   I always buy

I was told up there the buses were not sorted yet and some are teetotal. are the ST buses beer free?. and not stopping for a beer ?, 

I guess the £50 price is due to the Wembley day lasting over 8 hours, will they need 2 drivers per bus? , matches at 12, 3 and ours at 5.15pm.

Not sure on any of that. I suspect the sporting trust buses will not be in direct competition with the Woodman ones in terms of alcohol.  

In terms of cost, l do know that £50 pounds is less than the cost of parking close to Wembley and petrol from the drive from the North east.

Yes Rog, going down but not in that t shirt. They had a week notice to prepare the GF one and came up with a good one in club colours so I'm sure a proper representative shirt could be got together in a fortnight.

Not made my mind up yet, how you getting down there.

hoping the Woodman will put a extra bus on if no spare seats on their 2.

failing that we will tag onto the queue for the ST buses. I can remember a convoy of 7 buses to the Northern rail final at Blackpool.

doubt we will have a reception back at the Frontier this time though. long time gone,

The trouble is Leeds United are away on that day, also Halifax going down as well who will require buses, Hull KR and Leigh also. So therefore there could be a massive shortage of coaches. Trains are unreliable so that is a no no.

Halifax have got it sorted, we could jump on their busses from the shay. £50 return.

this should be the example for the Bulldogs. ( it should be click and pay, not watch social media )

how do you book the Club buses ?. we are down as reserves for the Woodman 3rd bus, ( 19 waiting as of yesterday )

if that fails to materialise, we need to go with the ST, the club page says " Travel is being arranged by a number of supporter groups. Please keep an eye on our social channels for updates."

( the Halifax page is a simple click and pay for buses.)

Halifax like ,Featherstone come in numbers via coaches so I would think their travel company will cover them.

Altham's also cant get a spare bus.

thanks Bob, the Bod bus running from Batley Nash got in touch with us, 4 of us got the last 4 places, on their 33 seater. 

the BOD bus is normally a Huddersfield Town away travel bus,
