How are you getting to Anfield?

[Latics and England]

The buzz surrounding the FA Cup game is fantastic and it is great to see the number of people who have organised coaches and minibuses.

 

This is just a quick survey to see what people on here are doing about travelling over to Merseyside.

I agree, this is like going back 20 years!

 

Good to have something to look forward to with Latics!

 

I was going to drive but there is now quite an interest in a bus from Stalybridge so that is the best option!

Thought I'd set off now walking, just to be sure….

[Monty Burns]

I'm hoping that Boundary Blues announce some details before sunday...

BB's not taking a coach as the Ticket Exchange Scheme doesn't run to cup games….

number 26 bus from the bottom of my road

(which stops at Liverpool One bus station for anyone drinking in the city centre beforehand)

awww. club coach then, suppose I'm going to have to go through a load of rigmoroll to do it...

[chaddyblue]

Driving, setting off at 4ish and parking at the working mens club at the bottom of the main road up to Anfield. Cheap booze and cheaper parking.

[Heath]

Watch out for parking on the official car parks and Goodison it was a few years ago £10.00!!!! But your car is safe, well safe as it possibly can be round there!!

 

Plus if you go on the unofficial car parks they cram you in like sardines and you can end up stuck there for well over an hour!

I remember the first game at Anfield post promotion. Parked my car somewhere near the ground and was immediately assailed with the expected "mind your car mister?"

 

I told them it was a company car so didn't really care what happened to it. They must have been confused - it was fine after the match.

[AnthonyOAFC]

Swans Coach.

Absolute bargain!

[pukka]

Depends on whether the lovely people at work give me a day off / half day off or make me work til 4.30. I work next to Oxford Road station so gettinga train is easy

[Tommy_Fent]

Where's the "Streaking back down the M62 if we win" option?

[bossrocks]

In New Zealand at the time. £1500 for a return flight and a big chunk out of my holiday - worth it?

[tangerinedreams]

I have been based in Liverpool this week and the the roadworks from Risley thru to Burtonwood are an absolute nightmare, it took me 1 3/4 hours to get back to Royton, just the volume of traffic, this was dinner time yesterday, I've also gone via the East Lancs (A580) and tbh there's not a great deal in it so be be on the safe side I'd give yourselves at least 2 hours.

Defo worth it.

This snow has slowed me down, so decided to book on the official coaches instead, 5 of us

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

Me dad will be driving, so probably pick the missus up from work at Media City at about 3.30, stop off someowhere en route for a bite to eat and a pint or two then get to the game.

 

Civilised these days. Had it been 5 or 10 years ago it'd have been the 1.30pm train into Lime Street and a 6 hour booze.

[Diego_Sideburns]

By car, arriving about 11:00am and parking in Goodison Park area. Use free travel pass on bus into City centre.

 

Visit the newly-opened Museum of Liverpool on the waterfront near Albert Dock. The free football show 'Kicking and screaming' and the free Beatles show 'In the town where I was born' are shown at regular intervals every day.

 

Lunch in Raven (Irish American Beer Hall), the Britannia Pavilion, Albert Dock.

 

Afternoon in the area in and around Matthew Street (famous for The Cavern Club & Eric’s) - possible pub(s): Flanagan’s Apple, White Star, The Welkin (Wetherspoon’s) and Hogshead,

and/or Dale Street - possible pub(s): Rigby's 23 - 25 (bargain scouse meal), The Excelsior 121 and The Ship and Mitre 133.

 

Bus or taxi to Anfield pub – either Arkells or Flat Iron.

plane

[Rocky_Latic]

The Rifle has two 75 seater coaches currently booked but around 220 names down for the trip so they're booking another coach.

 

It'll be interesting before the coaches set off and on their return seeing as the pub only holds around 150 people.

 

Sardines!
