OpenC Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 2 hours ago, LFEE said: Has the club not offered any travel packages for this fixture? I got something about a station to ground shuttle bus service but that was it. Weird the way it's been handled, opening a bit of new stand but away from the rest of the fans and with the opposition fans in between. Can only assume that Luton didn't want to have to open more seats than the main stand if they could help it. Based on the stand capacity being about 4.5k (I think I read) looks like we'll account for about 2k and there will be a lot of empty seats where the hashtag fans are.

Not planning to fly out from California for this one myself, though. Pffft, fairweather fans... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amanda Staveley has got a lot to say about the women's team and seems to be there for the games more often than not, it's a shame they couldn't do something particularly given the difficulty of the location and the fact that the trains are off (I think). Maybe Luton told them they didn't want a big event. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked the same question the other week because my mam wants to go but she isn't confident enough to drive so would need someone to go with her, and she asked if there were official busses as she would've bought a ticket without hesitation. She's putting the guilt trip on me to drive her down now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all fairness, I don’t think they expected such a large following from our team. Ordinarily a generic 10k capacity stadium would have been decent for a women’s game consisting of teams from the 3rd division. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
