    Also...........

    how does the free coach travel work? Do they...........

    * Give you as many free tickets as you ask for and trust you to turn up. Or.........

    * Expect you to pay and then you get refunded on the coach when you show up.

    Surely it's option number two. I mean a Wendy fan could play a prank for example, go down and get ten free coach tickets and then not turn up on the day, thus a waste of possibly an extra coach that wasn't needed etc.

    I suspect they take your name when you BUY a ticket. Otherwise you could be poping down to see you aunt for a few hours.

    Is it definitely still the Friday night?.....

    I suspect it'll be one coach ticket for each game ticket you buy.

    Still a friday night (N) (N) (N) But surely then you can buy a ticket, take a free coach ticket and then not bother using it, by going in the car for example. I'm sure they have thought about it, whatever they decide to do.

    Tickets go on general sale 9am tomorrow

    And to answer Dreamy's question - surely free coach tickets will only be available to book if you have booked a match ticket

    I suspec they might take your name for match ticket and if you don't turn up for coach tey may well 'black-list' you. Although unlikely. Of course you will now ask what if you give a false name etc. You just got to trust these people.

    At some point they will halt free tickets, and wont put on a coach for a dozen people.

    why would a wednesday fan buy a ticket for southend against barnsley?

    just so the club has an empty seat on a coach? I very much doubt it

    That will probably happen. Although I reckon the club should take cash off people for the free ticket and pay them back on the coach. Otherwise fans might go down for a free ticket, just incase they can't get there another way. For example someone might get a coach ticket and then be offered a lift later and no longer need the coach ticket.

    Does anyone know what time the coaches are setting off?

    I could do with knowing so I can decide whether to book a half day or a full day off work.

    I think they are going at 2pm. Which means you might just get there in time for the second half!!


    P.S. Don't take the time as gospel though. It's just what I heard.

    Well I suppose you could, why would you do that though?

    I assume you pick up the coach ticket when you buy the match ticket.
