It is Good Friday so i suppose the driver may be on double time, thats the price Ive benn quoted by my usual company and Ive rang around since reading this and all the others want £50 more, so should I cnacel this coach now or what, as its no use having one if no one is willing to pay that price. ?

Ignore them DJ. If they want to go by car let them. Think they left out parking/clamping/window replacement fees anyway

If I was you I’d leave it until Friday, you’ve chance to ask all them going on the coaches to Wakey their opinion.

I’d guess a few more will drive with it being only a short journey to Widnes.



<Note to oneself> What’s it got do with you, you always drive anyway!

That seems very expensive to Widnes it only costs about £6 in fuel in a car and you can take 4 people with you!! and its only £1.50 cheaper than going to wakefield how do they work that out when its about 5 times the distance?????

Not having a go in anyway just seems to be a touch expensive and i know the coach company sets the price not you

Then don't go by coach !!!!

Just have a look on other fans sites at how much they charge for trips. You'll find they are £3 -£4 dearer than ours for similar mileage. I rang several coach companies for prices and they wanted £400 min for local games.

Leigh 24.7 as i said im not having a go i never have used the coach service as i travel by car just pointing out it was very expensive for what it was if thats what they charge then thats what they charge but to me its very expensive for what it is.

and it was more aimed at how the coach company could justify only £1.50 cheaper to Widnes than Wakefield when there is nearly 100 miles extra to and from wakefield????

Just dont like seeing my fellow supporters getting ripped off

1 spare place in my car for wakefield trip if anyone wants it PM me

I thought the prices have been good value as far.

IMHO £8 to wakefield is not bad not brilliant but not bad

£6.50 to widnes is a rip off

I know who you are and as i said in my post it was aimed at the coach company not you i know you are only charging what they are charging you. The last thing i would say was you or lisa were ripping anyone off because i know thats simply not the case

I wasnt having a go at you hun and i know you are doing a sterling job sorting the coaches out for everyone not many would do it i surpose the prices reflect the times and cost of fuel etc

Appologies if my post was taken in the wrong way.
