GovanFrontSince96 315 Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Just tried to book onto the official buses to Manchester through Thomas cook and after filling in my details It said sorry not enough stock! Now I'm hearing that the buses are full! What the hell does that mean? Are they only running 10 buses and the rest of us have to take the rip off train? Can anyone in the know tell me what is happening please Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kplfishtank 4,669 Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I won't be, i'll be there for the day Explain how this equates to being treated "like a criminal" bussed down to a football game, taken to a stadium, taken to the game and then home.....It worked the last time and there were no problems so why not repeat this ?our bus never went to any football ground as you said in manchester the last time we played man utd there was no trouble so why cant we put some trust in the guys in the travelclubi would love to now how many of those arrested/charged were travelclub members or even season ticket holdersi will be there and if i need to sit in the united end i will as i know i can conduct myself properly whilst representing our club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandyboyblue 226 Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 What? By telling a few thousand fans, who are well behaved generally well known to the travel club because of the point system, you can't do this or you can't do that?It's treating the fans like criminals.I’m sure the law abiding members of the travel club will respect why the decision to do this has been made, if they don’t like it they shouldn’t travel. The last thing we need as a club is trouble of any nature. This is an exercise to prevent trouble and I sincerely hope it works and not one fan gets arrested. Let’s not play into the medias hands.

caseyjones 3,009 Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Would we have had the same thing happen had it been Chelsea or Arsenal we were drawn against? I seriously doubt it.

1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 It's shite. I said all I have to on it on Friday night. I've calmed down now, though.I've spent money on a train return. I wanted to do my own thing, now it looks like I need to pay £40 for a one-way bus ticket with Rangers to guarentee my ticket. I've got digs with a mate after the match, so I'll use the second part of the train return for coming home next afternoon.Not happy, but needs must. I'll still get pished. Rangers won't stop me doing that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornelius11 74 Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Talk about over-reacting from some of the people on here.Of course this was going to happen, and it was only the minority of our support that shamed the name of the club, but there still needs to be measures taken so it doesn't happen again.I dont think the club are treating the fans like criminals, some of you guys need to get a grip.
