08:41 from Temple Meads gets to Gloucester at 09:33 - leave Gloucester at 09:46 gets to New Street at 10:45.
15:30 from New Street gets to Gloucester at 16:22 - leave Gloucester at 16:42 to arrive back at TM at 17:34.

Cheap day return TM - Gloucester = £8.20 + 2 singles Gloucester - Brum @ £10.50 each = total of £29.20... :lol:


You can get the megabus to Birmingham quite regularly from bristol. It cost me £6 each way and takes just over 2 hours if I remember correctly.

I'm really looking forward to this game, hopefully I'll be surrounded by Reading fans in the home end though. I'd like to celebrate without getting kicked out. Speaking to work colleagues that are season ticket holders, their stewards aren't friendly at all.

Thanks for the steer BirminghamRoyal, just had a look and I would have to catch the bus that departs Bristol at 06:40 to get to the game on time.... sorry, I'm not getting up that early on a Saturday even if it does save quite a bit (you're quite right on the price); plus I wouldn't get back until 8pm. Just booked the train, departs Temple Meads at 09:30, getting back at 17:07, tickets bought via Cheltenham (as suggested by Wizard - cheers again) saved around a tenner than booking direct, seats reserved and won't have to get off the train either way :D

Royal Lady GL4 - Row 6 :evil: Doesn't always pay to have the higher points. :roll:

At least I should be able to get on the pitch when we're confirmed as Champions... :wink:


If my ticket is a long way back I'll swap with you because I'll still be on these oxf*rd crutches!! Stairs are a nightmare!

An off peak day return on the Chiltern Line from Beaconsfield or High Wycombe is just £20. Journey takes bout 1.45.

M8!! remember I'm aged - so 25 rows back might kill me.

Wouldn't want to sit with Lanky P either.

Gl4 row 36, happy with that. Now to find some inflatables. Sooooo glad the nice fella at the ticket office offered to add the points on for ST renewal over the phone to get off about 1780 points and get the brum tickets a few days earlier than thought, appears from here it was something of a balls up. Was annoyed at the drop from 1800 down to 1000 points. Should be another great atmosphere, and hopefully get our trophy back!

You should be pleased. You have been designated an important role in Operation Stand at Every Away Game.
