tomphil Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Not read the whole thread. Ur. Koto. Had a deal on to shift tickets which was buy QPR & Rovers tickets and u pay for one and they've totally sold out of those so I imagine the top tier will be covered in this deal Home sections of breezeblock nothing like full v Qpr. Top tier away end empty so maybe theres a chance of that for us if needed.

Hughesy Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 There are also a few pubs that will not allow away support in. Beehive pub (At top on the roundabout) is perfect for away fans...so no worries there....they also have free parking....as do most side streets around there

Ralfinho Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 how are people getting to this game? I was thinking the train but that means switching at Preston to get to Horwich Parkway. Any coaches or buses operating from Darwen?
Roost Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 how are people getting to this game? I was thinking the train but that means switching at Preston to get to Horwich Parkway. Any coaches or buses operating from Darwen? Minibus. Its a schlep on the train tbh. Its costsing us £10 each for the minibus return - seems reasonable.
OhmiBRFC Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Train from Darwen straight to Bolton, then change at Bolton to Horwich. Nice and easy.

I was thinking the train but that means switching at Preston to get to Horwich Parkway. Any coaches or buses operating from Darwen? Spinners Pub are doing a 50 seater coach and possibly a minibus. I usually go with them, but on this occassion I going on a different bus
roversfan83 Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 how are people getting to this game? I was thinking the train but that means switching at Preston to get to Horwich Parkway. Any coaches or buses operating from Darwen? To get to horwich park way from darwen just change at Bolton don't need to go anywhere near Preston. We've always got train to Bolton drink round the wetherspoons and other high class joints then gone back to bolton station then its direct to horwich station.
bazza Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Four more tickets bought today A good pub near Bolton railway station for those who like real ale is The Sweet Green Tavern.
LeftWinger Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 ...but on this occassion I going on a different bus Experimental faze?

I've never heard whetherspoons described as a high class joint before, quality.
the original david brent Posted March 15, 2012 Author Posted March 15, 2012 Experimental faze? haha! Im going on a bus from.... Feniscowles! A crazy radical world-shattering experiment!! It's a real possibility we may sell out the entire end which I believe is about 5,000. Particularly if the great one can achieve a back to bak win for the first time ever on Tuesday. I stand to be corrected but I think the last, and only time, we have sold out the entire end was for the fa cup 5th Round tie in 2001. We have previously sold out allocations of 3 quarters of the stand.

I usually go with them, but on this occassion I going on a different bus Cheers, I think a mate has booked me and my other mate onto the Spinners coach. he said they are opening early for breakfast then stopping off at a pub on the way over To get to horwich park way from darwen just change at Bolton don't need to go anywhere near Preston. We've always got train to Bolton drink round the wetherspoons and other high class joints then gone back to bolton station then its direct to horwich station. I work in Bolton and I can tell you for a fact that their weatherspoons is no way on this earth a high class joint, its worse than our postal order!!!
Mattyblue Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 He's joking, surely? If not, I could guide him to some other classy joints before he gets the train; Baroque for the 9am start, Zy Bar, Bar Ibiza, the Sun
roversfan83 Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 Dam right I was joking. Frankly whatever town or city in weatherspoons universally dreadful establishments. Don't think sarcasm translate well in the written word.

We have previously sold out allocations of 3 quarters of the stand. If we sell out then it's going to be a brilliant day The bottom tier holds 2800 surely the top tier is pretty much similar? That would be slightly more than 5000 which for an away day is good going Dam right I was joking. Frankly whatever town or city in weatherspoons universally dreadful establishments. Don't think sarcasm translate well in the written word. You think spoons are dreadful pubs??? Surely this is the joke right?

Top tier only holds around 2k i think, look at the shape of it. Either way it should be a 4 thousand plus following like at Wigan, wonder if the press or M.o.D will mention it as they always fall over themselves to say there's only 400 away fans when we have small turnout's for live games
Pitty Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 Got tickets for this game, my friend cant make it now, just wondering are you able to get a refund on the ticket if you take back or not?

braddock Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 It's the clientèle that's more of a problem, in the rougher Spoons. Sure, they aren't minimalist swanky bars or log fired hoity toity public houses but I'd take them over either of the aforementioned.
Clitherover Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 Personally I'd rather go to Wetherspoons for 2 quid odd a pint than some bar that fancies itself, selling tepid bottles of lager at five pound a pop.
