(Euro Travel details here) A
new season approachs and below you will see booking slots for the
first few matches. But beware as yet Sky have not announced their TV schedule
so match dates and or times may change. The dates and times quoted
are from the club site, but currently the away clubs' websites are not quoting
dates or times!
The
good news prices are unchanged.
After
last season I now know how other clubs' supporters feel having to travel on a Friday night!
We
used a mini bus on occasions last year due to lack of demand, this
was I believe initially due to Friday matches and subsequently to
the teams form(or lack of it). Where necessary we will use a mini
bus again, although I am also trying to organise an alternative
bus of about 25-30 seats.
It
would help considerably if you could book as early as possible for
the coaches. On a number of occasions last season I had to change
to the mini bus, only to find supporters wanting to book in the
last few days before the match.
At
the early matches last season there were a few problems with punctuality,
thankfully this improved and gave us no problems later in the season.
But please remember we will wait no longer than 5 minutes after
the published departure time.
If
you have any suggestions to improve the 'fun bus experience' please
let me know at travel@salesupporters.co.uk.
e.g. we have been supplying a bucks fizz breakfast for a few years now, has anybody any alternatives
(at a reasonable price) that are practical - bacon butties although highly desireable would probably not be practical.
Tickets
for away matches are normally available about 4 weeks before the
match, with unsold tickets returned about 2 weeks before the match.
You
therefore only have about 2 weeks to obtain tickets from Sharks' allocation otherwise you will have to go direct to the opposition.
Bristol away 11/04/2008
Cancelled through lack of numbers.
Harlequins away 04/05/2008
Depart Edgeley Park 07:30, Heywood Road 08:00 and Sandbach Services 08:30.
Hope to arrive in Twickenham about 12:30. Pub stop Eel Pie in Twickers. Walk to ground from the pub. Then coach joins us at the ground after the match.
Bath away 26/4/2008
Depart Edgeley Park 07:00, Heywood Road 7:30, Sandbach Services 08:00. [NOTE NEW TIMES]
Hope to arrive about 11:30 in Bath. No pub stop as we will be too early for food. Best hope is to try pubs near the ground, or grab a bite in the ground and aim for food after the match or bring your own. We will leave at 17:00, which will allow us time to find a pub showing the Heineken semi (Irish v Toulouse) or go shopping! Usual breakfast on board.
SALE SHARKS are also running a bus for this game only, no doubt it will be dearer than ours and will not include Bucks Fizz breakfast, so if you want to travel on the Fun Bus email me at travel@salesupporters.co.uk or ring me on 07771758988. When joining the bus remember ours will be from BULLOCKS.
