I Blame the Coach

[Mad Mick]

Bring the old charabanc's back!!!

 

[GrayBlade]

Bring the old charabanc's back!!!

It did cross my mind...but then again I’ve always been a superstitious old git.

 

[Ricky]

5 and a half hour journey apparently.

That can't have helped.

Will seem like 5 and a half days travelling back

Perhaps if we weren't run by such a bunch of schnorers, we might have chartered a plane and flown from Doncaster to Cardiff.

Yesterday, playing cards on a fancy fucking coach

Bring the old charabanc's back!!!

The open top bus is only for special occasions!

Could've been worse, I mean, they're sat in luxury with phone charging tables, mood lighting, drinks machines, on seats made from many cows, I bet there's even a toilet or 2, oh and air con, and enough tv's to reopen Audiovision back up. It's not as if they'd had to drive down themselves in mk2 fiestas.

But still sat on their arse for long periods. Hardly conducive to peak athletic performance. There's the mental side as well.

They shouldn't ever be sat on a coach for more than 4 hours to get to an away match. Even a lovely shiny coach.

Didn't they travel Friday?

Must have stopped off for a few pints on the way to take that long.

 

[BigBed]

They could've flown? It is 2019 afterall.
Or maybe travel down the day before??

At the end of the day, they're professional sportsmen, this is there job, they should still be able to run about for 90mins.
Could just imagine how my gaffer would react if I drove to Scotland and then told him I couldn't do my job cos I'd been sat in a van for 6.5hrs, and nobody has travelled and paid to watch me work, oh, and I'd be expected to work a lot longer than 90mins.
In this day and age the only excuse can be, they just didn't play well enough to win, didn't take chances and allowed Swansea back into the game.

 

[Manuel Azaña]

Remember The Pigs daytrip to Reading under Laws.

Surely to God we didn't set off Saturday am.

 

[1889]

To be fair, we’ve never previously lost, when we’ve travelled to the game on that bus!

I've never been superstitious, touch wood I never will be either

[Pedro Verde]

Are they travelling to Norwich tomorrow?

[Ranmoorblade]
