    If you've got a Plus Bus or day ticket, there's nothing to stop you hopping on & off along the route as you wish; same with the tram.

    Yes Corn Dolly coach, I really can't be arsed getting train tickets etc and then finding a pub and all that, daughter drops me and the grandson off at Corn Dolly 10ish let the coach driver take the strain CAMRA pub straight into the ground, same coming out on the coach daughter picks us up at Mayo Morrison's job done :thumbup:.
    Tickets arrived today, don't know why they were sold to priority first the away end holds 3,750 enough for the fans who want to go.
    Apparently stopping off at The Carrion Crow a CAMRA pub.

    Four and a half miles down the road for me this one. Much closer than the trip to VP every other week.

    But given the current play I still had to consider if I would go. Would normally be a no brainer.

    That being said, I'll be there.

    Seen him a few times on Tv for Fylde, despite his goalscoring record there, never impressed me, looks like an overweight, slow sunday league player, a bit like Andy Cook, who was shocking recently at VP for Mansfield. I think the jump to league 2 will be beyond Rowe

    On the last few visits I've used the 181 / 182 bus service from Piccadilly Gardens, Manchester which drops you off close to the ground. Takes about 40 minutes from Manchester to the ground.

    Bear in mind return journeys, like a plonker ive picked the first available 10p return which is or was the 18.56, looking at bus times back im cutting that a bit fine unless forking out probably a fair bit on trams or other buses

    Hopefully this puts your mind at rest! As I posted above the cost of the trams is £4.20 return, so really quite reasonable.

    The 181 / 182 service from Garforth Street (about a 5 minute walk from the away end, just across the dual carriageway), has departures at approximately 17:17 and every 20 minutes. The 17:17 is due back into Piccadilly Gardens at 17:55. Even allowing for the traffic, you should make that 18:56 comfortably. I'm hoping (and expect) to make the 18:27 from Piccadilly station.

    40 minutes on a bus is sadly no good when you’ve just sunk 6 beers on the train and are busting for a slash

    If it was straight there i might have considered it but this is northern we're talking about. And the fact i'm there in less than 45 minutes by car from Bradford.
