    Round 1 Jets Away Support Coaches
    http://www.newcastlefootball.net/hom...pport-coaches/

    The new A-League season is almost upon us, and excitement is building ahead of the Newcastle Jets opening game against Sydney FC at Allianz Stadium on Friday 11th October. A number of supporters have enquired about the availability of coaches for this season, so The Squadron Football Supporters Club has booked a coach service to Sydney for the 11th October for any supporters who want to make the trip down the F3 and help pack out the away bays.

    Bookings are now open for the Round 1 fixture against Sydney FC at Allianz Stadium on Friday 11th October 2013. Kick-off is at 7:30pm. You can purchase your tickets by calling Sid Foggs on 4928 1088 Mon – Fri 9am – 5pm and Sat 9am – 12pm. You can also purchase in person at Sid Foggs Travel, Gallery Level at Stockland Jesmond.

    Coaches will depart from Hunter Stadium car park for Sydney at 4pm and then will depart 20 minutes after fulltime for the return trip to Newcastle. This service is for all Jets supporters and especially for families and younger supporters who want to attend an away game but don’t wish to travel by public transport and want a direct service to the stadium.

    Prices for this trip will be $25 per seat or a special family price of $90 (two adults and two children or one adult and three children). Those paying by credit card will attract a 2% non-refundable fee. We have made the costs cheaper and simpler than last season so we hope this makes it more affordable for supporters.

    These prices are for return coach travel only and do not include a match ticket. All patrons are strongly advised to purchase their match tickets prior to booking on the coach. Please be advised that smoking and alcohol will not be permitted on board Sid Foggs coaches.

    A minimum number of bookings are required to ensure each service goes ahead. Those wishing to use this coach service are urged to purchase their tickets as soon as possible. A decision will be made by 12pm Wednesday October 9th as to whether the minimum number of seats have been sold. If the service is cancelled, customers will be notified and purchases will be refunded (except credit card fees).

    Patronage for this service will determine whether there is sufficient demand for future NSW away trips for games against Wanderers and the Mariners. A portion of sales after a completed service will be donated to The Squadron FSC to go towards tifo production costs (large scale displays, flags and poles, banners, drums and megaphones, etc)

    The coach service is booked by The Squadron on behalf of all Newcastle Jets supporters with Sid Foggs Coaches. Hunter Sports Group/Newcastle Jets FC have no involvement aside from promoting the service to its Members. Any enquiries for these coach services need to be directed to Sid Foggs Coaches on the above number.

    Ok update on the coaches - we have sold out a 56 seater which is a pretty good response.
    As more seats sell today they will bump us up to a 60 seater, and if required (and available) onto a 75 seater.

    Thanks to everyone who has chosen to use this option, now that we know there is a need we will investigate getting the rest of the NSW away fixtures organised.

    Apparently the Cove will be marching from the reserve near the Clock Hotel at Surry Hills 630pm.
    This will be about the time we can then leave the Strawberry Hills Hotel to get to the stadium about 30 minutes before kickoff.

    I'm not one that would use this service but I think it's a great idea. 1 question furns does the bus have more then one pick up drop of area? I grew up in Swansea and in the past when traveling to music festivals in Sydney Buses would start from Hunter Stadium and make pick ups in Charlestown, Belmont and Swansea there were a few that would travel through Wallsend and make pick ups there to. Just a thought for the future

    When we used PSC they only had one pickup spot @ Hunter Stadium

    Sid Foggs are offering extra pickups if requested but I have left it up to them to publicise because it depends what the supporters ask for.

    Using this in the past, Port Stephens Coaches went straight to the F3 via Wallsend as the quickest way to Sydney.

    Can't comment on the bus but the train ride home gave plenty of time to contemplate many things. Suicide/ Self Harm etc

    Still struggle to understand why it takes 3 ****ing hours to get from Central to Newy in this day and age.
