Villa away lift wanted

[Awayfox]

Hi

Has anyone going to villa tomorrow got a couple of spare seats in their car , my son and nephew have match tickets but are struggling to get there, obviously they would contribute with petrol and parking costs. Thankyou

[Yes N'Didi]

Not a car but I believe Ausden Clarke still have spaces on their coaches? Hope you get sorted either way.

[Awayfox]

Thankyou for your reply, I have tried them they are sold out unfortunately

Have you tried from coalville. I'd normally catch the bus from hinckley but it was sold out, but coalville wasn't.

[Awayfox]

Thankyou

With what company is that

Its with the supporters club.

[Awayfox]

Ok thankyou I'll try them

[Awayfox]

No joy I'm afraid

Thanks for trying to help

Have you tried the Ginettas or even the clubs official transport? 

[Awayfox]

Yes tried them all

Do you have any friends going? Taxi there and back between  5 or so of you wouldnt ve that expensive

If you get asolutely no joy, and the alternative is simply not going, you could try the train as a last resort.    Not ideal, as timings are a bit tight and risky, but it is do-able  (so long as it doesn't go to penalties).

 

If the game finishes at 9.45pm, a fast walk to Aston should get you there in 15 mins.  Just in time to catch the 22.02, which arrives Birmingham New Street 22.10.    Or 5 minutes after that, one leaves Aston 22.07 gets in Birmingham New Street 22.13

 

So long as there are no major delays or cancellations, either of the above 2 should get you to New Street in time.

 

The train to Leicester (and Hinckley, Narborough, South Wigston) leaves New Street at 22.22

 

Obviously the above has some risks.  

 

What's the worst that can happen?   You miss the last train back, and have to catch the 05.19 back to Leicester on Wednesday morning.    Not the end of the world.

Depending on where you live could try the train from Rugby.

 

That's what we're doing and it has the advantage of later trains back last one being 23.10

I've done exactly the same, cheap as chips in all! 

[Awayfox]

I think they are a bit young for that

Only 17 and 15

sorry mate can’t help with a lift unfortunately but if you don’t manage to sort something and are looking to offload the tickets will buy them off you

[MarriedaLeicesterGirl]

Not going to the game, but I recommend you change the title of this topic to "Need ride to Villa game" -- I thought it was just a second game thread when I first saw it.

[Awayfox]

Thought more people would look if I kept it simple

To be fair alot of people have looked

Same here, it’s amazing how they can justify the prices from Leicester
