Thanks to HKP (Paul Hayward) we able to reduce fares to our next two League 2 away matches for £10.00 each - these two matches are Macclesfield on the 7th September and Northampton Town on the 21st September. We will still endeavor still to provide buffets to these trips.
We would like to thank Paul for his generosity for these two matches and has indicated that if the support grows to away matches could be offered for future games - so please start booking on for these two matches and show your support for these offers.
We have been having constructive discussions with Paul over the last few weeks about away travel and how we can get increased numbers travelling - this was agreed today as a trial.
We are now taking bookings for both these away games. Contact either Alain or Patrick to book your seat.
Since we advertised the away travel offer we have been pleased with the response so far and more people are joining us for the first time.
The current update for the two matches
Macclesfield on the 7th September - we have 37 booked already booked on.
Northampton Town on the 21st September - very early days but we have currently 43 already book so only 10 seats remaining on the first coach - we have to speak to Premier about a second but would think it's early enough to be available - so please keep booking on - its also likely that we will bring the departure time from the stadium earlier to 9.30am - but we will confirm in the next few days.
We can also confirm that buffets will be provided for both trips on the way to the games - even if two coaches travel to Northampton.
After the performance yesterday and the atmosphere created by the 424 travelling fans it would be brilliant to replicate that again at some point during the season - even at the next home games against Norwich on Tuesday and Cheltenham next Saturday.
Patrick is away for the next week - Belgium Grand Prix - so please contact Alain to book on - he is not on Facebook so it's either E mail or Phone.
GREAT NEWS - with 3 weeks still to go before the game
The 1st coach to Northampton is now FULL - keep booking on as we will take a second - as we are taking the two coaches could you please start paying for your seats as we will now be issuing coach tickets. We will be in REDZ at any home match.
Also please note - we will be departing from the stadium at 9.30am not 10.00am as previously stated for the Northampton game.
We still have seats available for the Macclesfield game on the 7th September departing from the Stadium at 8.00am
We had virtually sold out for the trip to Macclesfield next Saturday - but have been able to add a few more seats as we have been able to get Premier's 57 seater. This is the coach that we took to Leyton Orient last Saturday - the coach has toilet facilities, UBS charging points, DVD/CD player and reasonable leg room - so now we have 5 seats available if you want to travel to the game. Full details above.
This was Paul's objective to get more supporters to away matches - definitely has worked for these two matches at Macclesfield and Northampton. It also helps when the team are playing well.
Just as a reminder to those travelling by car to the game via the M40/M42/M6toll/M6 route - M6 has roadwork's from Junction 13(Stafford) to Junction 15(Stoke) - just keep a check on your way - we are going up the M1 route as last season, via Castle Donington our pub stop and then A52/A523 Ashbourne/Leek to Macclesfield.
Northampton Town – Saturday 21st September in the League with a 3.00pm kick off – The second coach is now getting good numbers on we now have 24 seats available, would be brilliant if we could take 2 full coaches maybe even a third - we depart from the stadium at 9.30am and the cost is £10.00 for all supporters. We have a change of venue for the buffet lunch stop, we are stopping now at the MK Dons Sports Bar in Newport Pagnell, the buffet is included in the fare. If you want to travel to this match then please contact us to book on.
