Does anyone have any details of prices for coach travel next Sunday?

I haven't rung them yet but Soccer Express are running coaches to the game.

Ring for details 0333 444 0226

Cheers PP

Soccer Express are £43 per seat. Leaving McDonalds at 6am. Aiming to get to London Stadium for midday.

I see soccer express have put the price up now to £49 !! It was £43 yesterday !

Does anyone have any sort of latest update from Soccer Express regarding coaches? I’m waiting for them to call back, last they said to me they are trying to get more coaches due to the amount of demand?

They called me back. Booked 3 places. £50 each! Leaving McDonalds near BP at 5.50am. They are now sourcing coaches from Leicester and Nottingham.

I booked on Saturday with soccer express pretty much straight after the match. They have took my money but I've had no confirmation email or anything 😧

Has anyone had a confirmation email from soccer express, I'm panicking now

They told me I would receive an email Wednesday onwards with confirmation of coach number and departure time.

Brilliant thanks

I guess prices will go up as they have to source coaches and drivers from further afield. Probably have to have two drivers per coach because of journey time? Of course, if it was a 2 hour journey to a midlands stadium...

Called the number and it went straight to voicemail, any ideas how long roughly they take to call back?

I guess they get the cheapest deals first and now they are sourcing coaches that are more expensive for a variety of reasons, the main one being it's not a local one.

They are working through them. Took 2 hours to ring me back. They will keep sourcing coaches if the demand is there. Likewise prices will rise.

On the Ticket Information story on the club website yesterday part of it mentioned the quoted text below. Has the club said anything themselves about coach travel since?

Quoted Text

Official Coach Travel

We have teamed up again with Soccer Express who have been very reliable for our supporters for past games. We will be releasing more information about travelling with Soccer Express on our website very soon.

Been looking at Minibuses and it would cost about £250 all in for a 9 seater. Good bit cheaper than what the coach companies are charging per head. (In fact I’ve just had a great idea….)

I’ve got two return train tickets from Donny to kings cross…..£74……
Good deal and flexible return…….
Might be an option for others ??
Obviously if they don’t strike!!!
Then we’re on the bike following Dave M !!

I paid similar for two singles from Newark 😂

Charter a plane from humberside into London city. Only 15 minutes from the ground 😉🤪

Just been told, unable to get extra coaches therefore are fully booked

Shame, this could put a few people off going, especially with trains being such a nightmare

Looking for one seat for me, travelling from Grimsby or Cleethorpes. Anyone have or know of one available, please?

Pm me or leave details in here if so… cheers 👍🏻

I reckon a big car sharing effort is the way forward and 4 in a car would be cheaper than £50 a throw on the coach by quite a lot.

I wonder if a taxi or minibus with driver would be cheaper

There was 5 of us that travelled from Gloucester to Hereford to watch town and I think a minibus saved us £15 each (and an hour) or something similar

A flotilla from GY Docks up the Thames and the River Lea (?) Moor up outside the stadium.

Scrap that, getting the train now. Costing an arm and a leg but at least it’s virtually guaranteed travel there and back.

Anyone had their confirmation of coach number from soccer express yet ?

I've seen on twitter there's aa coach from Skegness with a few seats on it if anyone's really struggling also biccy is in the process of creating a car share post I believe 👍

Just spoken to soccer express.
Getting coaches is not a problem, its the cost
£57 a seat.  They are getting them from far and wide, like coventry, and putting drivers up in St james' and Blundell park hotels.
Said they took 20 coaches to Chelsea and Palace, but only have 11 now

Quoted from Sammo

They told me I would receive an email Wednesday onwards with confirmation of coach number and departure time.

You had any emails from soccer express with any confirmation yet ?

Nothing yet :-(

Still nothing from soccer express and now not answering their phone lines 😡

The UK has gone backwards. Who would have thought that a large number of fans would want to go to see their team in a final?  Whatever happened to footie special trains?

I haven't received anything from soccer express, I know they might not be sending details of pickups and tickets until later today but have they sent confirmation of purchase and reference numbers out already? I only have a reference number from over the phone...

No I have had absolutely nothing from them, other than them taking the money out of my account I've heard nothing from them at all

If I don't hear anything by the end of today I'll be seeking alternative transport down there and getting a refund they are not filling me with confidence at the minute

The wonders of the free market…

After the fiasco with that coach company fleecing Liverpool supporters, I guess people are slightly sceptical.

I've finally managed to speak to someone at soccer express and they have said I should have received an email....nope.....they then said they would text me confirmation.....nope.....still waiting
