I’ll still be in bed
4 hours for a 40 mile trip !!!!!
Thats ridiculous. I cycled to Swansea from Cardiff last Sunday morning in under 4 hours. Couldn't use the motorway either 🙄
Missed this. Why would it take 4 hours? Is it just a lot of waiting around for ticket exchange etc?
Only did this trip one never again
I live between Neath and Swansea and had to drive to the CCS to catch a bus to a stadium about 6 miles from my house and then go back to CCS to pick my car up - all to be held up in the industrial park for ages, treated like lowlifes and then go home again
Not worth it
Punishment for THAT song
If Newcastle v Sunderland , United v Leeds can be policed then either we are the maddest fans in the world or the police here are crap
Worst away trip going. Convinced the only people who go this have either never done it before or have some kind of perverse love for being treated like a criminal
Bit of a Liberty the whole experience
I agree with Nobody’s Rep
We were kept in an industrial estate - I think LLansamlet for over an hour and the rozzers wouldn’t let anyone off their coaches for a piss
Total nightmare and a complete breach of your human rights 🥺😩
I look back fondly on the trips to the Vetch in the 80s and even when we were banned in the 90s I still got in there (Stant - chest out after his volley - priceless)
I've been a few times since the Liberty move but not for a few years now - really can't be doing with that nonsense
Interestingly my boys who are late teens early 20s and like an away trip have absolutely no interest in going either which says it all for me
I can understand it being coach only , it means all police resources can keep fans apart and it's no good having 500 city fans arriving in Swansea by train using up other resources and having 2 flashpoints
But ff sake having EVERYONE meet so early at the stadium , including people from port Talbot for example , at such an early time is stupid .
If it is to be a coach only trip there should be several pick up points and people in Bridgend should have 2 coaches , 1 for pontypridd etc , in addition to the main fleet from Cardiff
It's pathetic
Fans from Port talbot Rhondda Aberdare etc don't have to get on at the stadium now if they book up with their local supporters groups.
As you get older and maybe a little wiser you realise this nonsense is never worth it.
