Potentially an (expensive) option for those that won’t be able to get away tickets.

 

No word if the lounge is getting decked out in black and white….

I think it’s more in comparison to virtually all the other coach trips that are going to this and charging ~£30.

 

That said, nobody is being forced into anything, so if somebody wants to try charging a bit extra, and people are happy to pay…

and allowing alcohol on board

NUSC are doing theirs for £28 return, £52 is way too much here

Yes, I don’t disagree that it seems very expensive. But ultimately it’s not a closed market, there’s a fair few other options, so if people are reared to pay that for whatever reason, fair enough. If they think it’s taking the piss, they won’t.

Problem is with 7000 or whatever tickets supply and demand kicks in and people are forced to pay or miss out.

Maybe. But the amount of coaches that are going down for this, it really wouldn’t be difficult to give the TF one a swerve (if it was still running) and find an alternative, unless you really left it to the last minute.

To be fair, I don’t think anybody asked them to cancel. They just called out the ridiculous price which is fair enough IMO.

Yeah. I think I’d just rather see instances like this cancelled because no-one wanted to pay an inflated price, rather than a SM backlash.

 

Although I don’t suppose it much matters.

Down to 11 points now but only around 240 left, cant see there being any left after it drops to 10 in the morning. Think most fans have their eyes on wembley tickets so snapping them up, semis at Wembley as well

It definitely is - Tory Boy Alex’s inherited company was Phoenix Coaches and Taxis.  Literally using a fanzine to try and rip off fans, while keeping schtum about the obvious conflict of interest.  Absolutely fucking shameless :) - that statement too about a ‘local business’.  Yes, yours Alex, you dodgy cunt.

It’s the disingenuous nature of ‘True Faith’ putting on coaches at exorbitant costs; coaches owned by the editor’s company.  Not everyone will be aware of that little fact
