I would have loved to have gone to the game but I am working on this day, the pick up would have been fantastic as i live in Northampton

hopefully there will be another away trip soon.



Great chance for the broncos to get into the quarters

Think we would have to leave by 09.00 which would mean the 8.09 from Waterloo getting to Staines at 8.45.



If we had a guaranteed coach load could even ask Batley to make it 2.30 or 3.00 but would look a bit stoopid if 10 of us turned up!!

We are already there for the weekend so we'll see y'all on the .... terrace??

On the other hand the last time we went there it was february and the rain was angled at 45 degrees. After 10 minutes both teams were playing in mud coloured shirts. Cold as a witches tit.

Literally

Re possible transport to Batley. So far have from facebook site Joe Quinny, Richard Russell, Alan Elrick from . From here, Windy 3 possibly 4, Sidcup massive 2,3 or maybe 4, Paul Roberts, Tricky Dicky 2, Brixton 2. Anyone "double" counted in that. A 25 seater is £895 and we would need to leave Staines station at 9 the latest which for those coming from far and wide would mean 8.09 from Waterloo getting to Staines at 8.45.



Anyone else up for the march to the arch?



If we fill a 25 seater it is £35.80. On numbers above it looks like we won't get 25. Happy to organise a mini bus BUT would want to share the driving - any volunteers?

I am a duplicate in that list - Richard Russell - thought I would hedge my bets

A couple more of us will be there but are staying over making a weekend of it.

I did wonder - all tricky in Walton

As long as its Sunday there's two more here!

who's paying

Hi Paddock.......regarding my earlier post, sorry to say that we two will not be making the trip up on the fun bus as travel times and connections etc across the day are just too much of a pain. I am going to take another look at the train travel option.



It looks as though Wakefield Westgate would be the right station to head for from Kings Cross, then I assume a cab to the ground............can anyone tell me if that is correct??

That probably would be your best bet, Wakey station to Batley can't be much over 5 or 6 miles.

Did look at train to Leeds and connection to Batley, but Leeds-Batley only run every 2 hours on a Sunday and would've meant a punishingly early start.
