Blimey - How much is this mini bus costing to Hire? Assuming say £120 for fuel: 15 x £30 = £450 fare income assuming that all 15 seats booked and paying £30 means £450 less £120 for fuel = £330 for the bus hire.
Can't be that much surely?
Not that I really need to explain the pricing to you, but I will as PL54 has lent me his calculator.
The bloke who has kindly volunteered to drive us is obviously not paying. We also decided (as a group) that his two kids who are also coming wont be paying as their father is driving us all up there. Plus as a group, those on the bus are paying for the match tickets of said driver and kids. Any clearer for you?
Estimated Times:
UP Crawley 6AM North Greenwich 7AM Sheffield 10-10:30AM
DOWN If we Lose (sulking home) North Greenwich 6PM Crawley 7PM
If we win (a couple of celebratory beers) North Greenwich 8PM Crawley 9PM

BC, not gonna jinx it, but got at least 1 Wembley appearance this year with Gosport Boro.!
I am (potentially) driving down from Scotland. I say potentially because it may end up far far more expensive than the train without others in the car.
Is there anyone needing a lift from Scotland? Alternatively - anywhere on the route down?
Olster - Cardinal Sin is looking for a lift from Edinburgh. PM him to discuss perhaps?
@AFKA Bartram - marvellous! Olster - have sent you my contact details and look forward to sharing the journey down with you. This thread is a great idea and one I'd be keen to support in future on the odd occasion I am driving when there are invariably spare seats.
What time you leaving Glasgow? I'm in Perth for the weekend and if i can get to Glasgow before you leave, i wouldnt mind taking one space to sheffield (wont be coming back though).

I am just concerned that the company hiring out the mini - bus are ripping off the organiser/s.
We'll need a very big seat if you want to sit next to me PL54 :-)

In which case if we pay by weight you get off "lightly"

@AFKABartram - 1 gone, four remaining
@church-lane yes we've been in touch, thanks.
Thinking of getting 9 of us all on one bus.
Public transport is too late.
Any help will be appreciated.
