I expect people will want to secure their ticket first before paying for travel.

Plus, I'm sure people will want to go to Leyton Orient too!

Don't executives need toilets?


And when you fall back into the mud it hurts a lot.
No! None of it was true, none of those things we thought we could see existed at all.
All that was really there was still more misery

Do they have spell check on the Executive coaches instead of toilets?

Eventually I’d like to see the club take responsibility for organising coaches where there is demand (as there likely will be this season if not next). Train travel is prohibitively expensive and the PO Final demonstrated what happens when potentially well-meaning but ultimately unaccountable individuals try and do it off their own back. Money goes missing, people get stitched up and left in the lurch, then have little to no recourse for getting their money back. Am I right in thinking The Trust had to bail out a coach load of fans and still haven’t been able to recoup that money as of yet?

Terry and co will sort themselves and their members out, no trouble with that, but it’s not worth the hassle for them to put on 5, 10, 15 coaches.

The club could quite easily set up an online booking for coaches, they have the funds and facilities to set up credit accounts with travel firms and can cut out these middle men like Soccer Express who will be making a profit that goes into the pocket of some nobody with zero interest in what’s best for the fans. They’ve have 4 attempts at spelling Orient and not managed it once ffs. Not sure I’d trust them with a satnav.

Not everyone wants to use a coach, obviously, but I imagine we’d take more away to places like Barrow on a Tuesday night if people knew they’d be able to get there and back for a reasonable price.

Why don't the club help Terry more with coach travel then it'll be easier to cut firms like Soccer Express out when profit to them comes before fans!!!!!!
