Sheff away rearranged match /travel

cafcjohnno

Is there anything the club or train company can do in terms of all of us that paid out for train fares ,
The coach lot will get
"Free" travel to the rearranged match , but what about us folk who made the journey by train ?

Any one know if anything can be sorted out , as I'm sure we won't take as many to the rematch

Just back from ski-ing in Slovenia so probably one of the few that benefits from the postponement. Happy to take tickets and coach off someone who can't make the rearranged fixture to save wasting them. Contact me if interested. I am in Orpington.

Sorting anything out for those that paid train fares, surely that leads to more problems....

I drove, what about my petrol?

How do you know the coach lot will get free travel? We were told that a decision will be made on Monday with regards free travel or refunds.

Nice one Seth, saved me looking this one up!

Why would you get free train tickets though? Train company took you to where you wanted to go.

I agree, however the ticket inspector on the return trip, told us to ask for comment form and write to them. He said explain what happened, he said you may get vouchers towards another trip. You can't moan at that if you get anything back.

That's probably because nobody in authority would be available to make the decision. There's absolutely no way in the real world the club can retain £22 apiece for ferrying supporters to Watford Gap and back - and there is ample precedent of refunds from aborted away coach trips in recent years.
