Colchester travel

Post by Ulvbluebird » Fri Feb 03, 2023 1:04 pm

Is anyone driving from the North to this game? I am in London and was hoping to jump on the bus back to Barrow (It has been cancelled). As there are engineering works from Colchester to London I wouldn't be able to get a train back so will have to miss the game.

The bus has been cancelled. They tried selling sex to fill the remaing 9 out of 15 seats available. That post is still in the hands of the press.. So you basically live in London going to the game or not?? You want to travel back to Barrow after the game for free??

Buy a train ticket for your travel from London to Barrow my friend.

You can't?? Why pay for a day out from London to Colchester and pay for a game of football in the hope you can get free travel from London to Barrow??? This is totally bizarre and unhealthily behaviour. Just drive buy a coach ticket to make the journey and would be cheaper?? Absolute hilarious. 🤪🤪🤪

Buses are replacing any train that can't run due to engineering works.

As PG says - a scam!

Seems like a perfectly reasonable request to me.
Don't let the old man in.

If I was going you’d be welcome to jump in the cavalier for the return trip but that old thing won’t get past ulverston so I’m not going.
Good luck Lewis with getting sorted, I’ve a feeling pointless game won’t be helping you.

So how are you going to get from London to Colchester on the train if engineering works are on?

Many have gone just one way of the trip on the bluebirds trust bus before and they pay accordingly if there are seats available

He could already be in London for other reasons

Strange responses.

Some have gone with bluebird trust so is bus running and he’s just WUM. They’ve maybe hired a smaller bus for less people so if genuine may be able to get on that?

No one has travelled with the Bluebirds Trust,the lad posted a reasonable requests and some of the replies are baffling.

Have you actually read the post properly and worked out the logistics of what he's "trying to do"?

Also hasn't been back on here with answers to the questions posed, and only has 9 posts to his name.

WUM

@ pointlessgame., why? why are you even going doen this route? sold on sex? get a grip.. it was tongue in cheek on the way essex sells ITSELF go to ITV or whoever and have a moan at them, where the so called sex selling is done. give your head a wobble and IF you are a supporter, stop being a turncoat and an attention seeking trainwreck.
