Since there appears to be no trains to Sheffield I thought it'd be a good idea to start a thread for people to offer spaces in cars, or for those looking for a lift from different areas. The more we can get up there the better atmosphere we can create.

So I'll start. I'm based in Strood, and am picking up @tangoflash in Gravesend. I have 2/3 more spaces (depending on size) and I'm just looking for petrol money cover. Also we're both smokers so thought that should be mentioned. Anyone looking for a lift in that area. Probably leaving about 7am Sunday morning.

    And this is what this forum is all about, looking out for fellow Lifers even though I'm sorted. Well done AFKA yet another feather in your cap.

    PS I thought I'd soften my image with the picture of another budding Addick my grandson :-)

    Great idea !

    Maybe we could make this a permanent thread for away games ?

    I'm amazed at how many fans we see parking at grounds with just 1 person in the car. Sharing petrol/parking costs makes SO much sense & is why we try to use this form of transport , especially on long trips up north.

    At times like this, I feel so selfish that we only have a two-seater car...though not sure that many are looking for a lift from Glasgow ;-)
    Hope everyone gets sorted.

    Assuming I can get a ticket, I'm going to be driving over the pennines from Preston. I'd be willing to pick up any other exiled Addicks on the way (up to three/four) and even make a bit of a detour if necessary.

    Calling all North-West Addicks!

    Looks like I'm going the London Bridge route and now have room for one more adult and one child.
