****Car/Minibus Shares to Sheffield Thread****(see post 2 for list)

blackheathaddick

Since there appears to be no trains to Sheffield I thought it'd be a good idea to start a thread for people to offer spaces in cars, or for those looking for a lift from different areas. The more we can get up there the better atmosphere we can create.

So I'll start. I'm based in Strood, and am picking up @tangoflash in Gravesend. I have 2/3 more spaces (depending on size) and I'm just looking for petrol money cover. Also we're both smokers so thought that should be mentioned. Anyone looking for a lift in that area. Probably leaving about 7am Sunday morning.

And this is what this forum is all about, looking out for fellow Lifers even though I'm sorted. Well done AFKA yet another feather in your cap.

PS I thought I'd soften my image with the picture of another budding Addick my grandson :-)

Shrew

One seat available from Shrewsbury

Fanny Fanackapan

Great idea !

Maybe we could make this a permanent thread for away games ?

I'm amazed at how many fans we see parking at grounds with just 1 person in the car. Sharing petrol/parking costs makes SO much sense & is why we try to use this form of transport , especially on long trips up north.

Weegie Addick

At times like this, I feel so selfish that we only have a two-seater car...though not sure that many are looking for a lift from Glasgow ;-)
Hope everyone gets sorted.

Thommo

Well done for sorting thread, will be two spares going up from Bristol.

Sir_Clive

Couple of spaces from Northampton area.

Charlton_Stu

Will have two spaces from Charlton, but travelling up Sat and returning Sun.

seth plum

I intend to drive up from Lee on the Sunday. Inbox me if interested.

blackheathaddick

Presuming everyone gets their tickets ok I now have a full car. Will advise if anything changes on that front.

Will either be going through Blackwall Tunnel so can pick up either side or via London Brdge, Old St, Highbury & Islington, if that helps people decide.

000__Jaaaaay__000

Anyone going from the tunbridge wells area ???

Sillybilly

I'll be driving from Dartford. At present all seats taken but will notify if anyone drops out. Great thread.

Thommo

Down to one spare now from Bristol.

bigstemarra

Assuming I can get a ticket, I'm going to be driving over the pennines from Preston. I'd be willing to pick up any other exiled Addicks on the way (up to three/four) and even make a bit of a detour if necessary.

Calling all North-West Addicks!

AddicksAddict

Looks like I'm going the London Bridge route and now have room for one more adult and one child.

C.Walsh'sLoveChild
