I heard that the travel club this season wont pick up from Taunton. This will casue me trouble as i wouldnt be able to get to any of the stops.
Coming from Taunton will be difficult, and the train is not cheap.

Anyone got any ideas or know anything within the trave club.

Thanks Brett

Are you kidding? Just a quick look on the train line showed train prices at £8 to Bristol Parkway (seems to be the closest to the ground).

I'd be delighted if my trip there is that cheap!

£8, i could only find £30 as the cheapest yesterday. best look again then :S

There was one that got you there for about 12:30 for £7.50 - book it before it gets too expensive!

EDIT: And I'll expect a pre-match beer for finding you cheap tickets too!

Off peak day return Taunton to Parkway is £11 for Saturday and thats without any railcard (which may not make any difference)

Just realised I only did a single but £11 seems to stand up.

... and lost my pre-match beer in the process!

The you need to add Bristol taxi prices to and from the ground. This could end up costing abit.

I'll be aiming to get there for around 12:30-1ish, by the looks of routeplanner it would be an easy detour to pick you up from the station.

Looks like the No 73 bus leaves Parkway 3 times an hour for Filton. Use that as its probably cheaper

I will give Steve Breed a ring tomorrow and see if the travel club would be nice. If not camb a nice pint would be coming your way thats for sure
Id be brave or bloody stupid to get a bus in filton with lots of rovers fans.

73 will drop you from parkway to right outside the ground,

Admin Edit: Content Removed, stick to the Banter Board please.

Another idiot to filter through from the BRFC fanbase.

Whos Nick Holson?

What did he say? Don't remember anything particularly bad about his post (unless he edited it).

Nothing offensive, but I don't want to end up moving this thread across to the Banter Board like many others recently.

All sorted now, thanks for all you help though guys.

Steve was very helpful and the fan bus will be picking me up from taunton services.
Find me about at the game or pub guys and im more than happily purchase a pre match drink for all your troubles.
