Actually just spoke to a bloke I know who drives buses for a living.
Asked about the possibility of doing a charter down to/from Wollongong for this Sydney FC/Jets game.
Liquor will be a thumbs up and have had no issue with this with him in the past!!!
He is gonna get back to us with a price.
Would any of you boys be interested??
Bus would seat approx. 50 and obviously the more we got on board the cheaper per person it would be
Good luck member, but as someone who finds it difficult to fill the squadron bus for NSW Away trips (especially in current predicament), you will be lucky to find another 50 supporters to make it worthwhile.
My advice would be to get a minibus. That way you only have to find 15-20 which is a much easier prospect.
Or a minivan if someone puts their hand up to drive it. Pretty easy to pick one up through hertz, europcar, thrifty etc. I used to do that for MDR trips when we had enough supporters living in sydney.

Bloke has driven us all over the Hunter and around various parts of Australia for golfing trips and we have drank piss from the moment we got on to the moment we got off and that is not an issue at all.
I am just waiting on the price back from my contact.
The only thing of concern to me is the price and how many may be needed to cover it.
Price is in at $1255
By my counts that would mean we would need a minimum 32 at $40 to cover cost. If we could get the number up to 42 we could drop it back to $30 a head to cover cost
Whats your take on $40 to and from Wollongong drinking piss to get to the game??
Me personally am not bothered but was interested on others perspective before pushing on with the idea??
Whats the date of the match again? I know its probably a page or two back but....
Saturday 3rd January KO somewhere around 7:30 at night
I shall spread thy word. Could be a solid Lunatics crew keen.
is there an away bay in woolongong coz I couldn't see one when I was looking at ticketmaster
There will be, it will be like the tickets for WSW away. Go on sale about a fortnight before.
