The club doesn't own coaches or employ drivers so it'd be difficult to do that

The unofficial coaches haven't made profit for years.
James Raffell shows you can do it much cheaper.

And still makes a couple of quid.
Whole marketing at the club is a joke problems with tickets can't get a top and now this.
Who does the marketing for the club absolutely rubbish no idea what so ever.

The whole thing is a joke. Cutting corners to save money but causing problems for the fans.

It started with Nike online store and then ticket aster.

Not only is the service poor for all of these services, it is also cutting jobs for local people.

You can buy a ST, which over the season brings the cost down, although I guess not every one would want to use he coach for every game?

Jimbo's done a ST for his at considerably less than EST. Sold 50 so that's one coach filled for every game as a minimum.

That’s right guys, mine didn’t show today. I’ve had to pay for everyone to have their cars filled up to get down there and filled up on the way back too for compensation.
Nightmare morning.

The coach company Jimbo used pulled the coaches at 4:55 yesterday afternoon due to a “clerical error”.

Usually I use Hansons but they were fully booked today and for Gillingham (Gillingham is sorted with a different provider who I use often too)

They use Johnson’s. A really good company to be fair, one I wanted to use today but they were fully booked.
Sure someone isn't trying to throw a Spanner in the works James
What a Nightmare
Nobody threatening these outfits in the background or warning them off or Impersonating you
Sounds like you really need to have a strong chat with your supplier and maybe a password so no one can interfere with your booking .

This was the first time I used this company apart from Wembley when I booked the whole fleet out. Personally I think they were offered a job in which they’d get 4x the amount I can offer them.
When I first got told there was a possible issue with a driver I got in touch with mates who can drive coaches, offered thandi to use them but they weren’t interested (obviously they knew they’d have to go up and get insurance sorted etc), I was then told they had an agency driver. In the meantime I was phoning around other providers just to see if anyone had anything spare, phoned a company in Nuneaton who are on a rail replacement contract in Derby, his exact words ‘I’ll tell you now that they won’t be showing up, I’m currently sat next to about 10 of their coaches and they’ll have been offered to bring more coaches here tomorrow and you won’t be able to compete with what coaches receive for rail replacement’. Disgrace what they did!
