SWL and I did the coach to Sunderland in the FA Cup with a few others last season. I can possibly say it was one of the worst experiences in my life. Within 3 minutes of being in the coach I got told to watch my language, we tried to start songs the whole way but to just receive straight faces from the tourists in return and to top it off the driver was swerving in and out of lanes. I don't think we'll be doing it againflash gunner wrote:Man Alive!!

Never travel on those travel club coaches again. The strange thing is the trains were the total opposite

Re: Bradford away travel
I remember travelling back from an Away game on a travel club coach, and as we waited with bated breath to see which video (yes, it was a few years ago) was being set up to entertain us on the way home, I was disappointed to be met with the opening credits of :
'Beverley Hills Ninja'

I think we should investigate chartering our own online gooner coach for away trips. That could tempt me to make the trek up to the frozen northern wastelands.

if it comes to it we'll sort out our own one. So expensive with a driver though and not many around that wanna do the drive back.
