Keiththejag Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Hi everyone.After a great season I'm sure we're all looking forward to the SPL next season.Am trying to get an idea of how many people could be interested in running a bus from London to Firhill every now and again.I know the scheduled buses are a bit hit and miss(plenty of experience) and would be interested in enquiring about this possibility if numbers were there.My nephew and his family are in Essex and they would love this option,as would I.

topcat Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Keith Don,t think there would be an issue putting this request on the Main Forum as well. Likely to get a larger audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinny Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 I'd be interested if there was an option to be picked up in the north-west, however I would imagine you'd be looking to fill a minibus the whole way rather than pick up stragglers every 50 miles.

Early days Twinny but I dont think a pick up at say Knutsford or nearby would be a prob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggie Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 Me thinks if you select various meeting points on route and local Nomads make their way to said rendevous points you might make this a feasible idea. e.g. Telford is way off the ideal beaten track but maybe Stafford Railway station wouldn't be a pain to get to off the motorway? Or Crewe?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willieg Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 Would this be a day trip? I could get to Stafford Station so count me as a possible if that was a pickup point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be great if you could make a stop off at Rothersthorpe Service Station on the M1 (near Northampton). Not sure if there are other Nomads in Northants/Beds/Bucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinny Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Hi Keith, Any plans to run with this or is it not really viable? I've just moved to Southampton so it would be a good laugh to travel up to a game on a jags bus from London some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
