| Quote: SaintsFan "When you're travelling over you'll need to be aware that, depending on how many of you are travelling, the approach to Widnes can get snarled up a bit. There are road works and silly traffic lights (silly because they let about three cars through on each change). There are three routes into Widnes from the motorways and from St Helens and they converge on a single carriageway. When Warrington came, it took 45 minutes for my bus to get from St Helens to Widnes, which is approximately 7 miles. Most of that time was spent sitting on that bloody road going nowhere. Now, you won't be bringing as many as Warrington - no-one does these days! - but if people leave it late then there is a possibility they will get held up as they enter Widnes.
Just a friendly warning to bear in mind!
A couple of other hints for those of you who haven't been before
Top man, very helpful!

I dont finish work till 5:30, get home for six ready for half past, this would mean booking half a day off, therefore i dont think i will be getting the coach

Got a similar problem with getting to the Legends game before the Leeds home game. Think I'll be working by Blackberry from about 4!

| Haven't seen a KO time confirmed yet, was going to compare it to u20s but I guess they aren't playing a full 80 mins? 20 mins each way was it for the one they did for the centenary?

| I must admit I thought 5.15 was a little early but I suppose it is coach speed times. Glad I don't have to rely on the coach though because getting to Odsal for that time on a Friday would be nigh on impossible for me.

I've spent years booking days off and arranging to swap my shift just to get to games - total pain in the rear end tbh - but worth it to follow the Superbulls

Just one (very) late thought TS. From your previous posts I guess you haven't previously used the coach for a 5.15 set off? Just thought I'd mention that Odsal is horrendous with traffic at this time (I know you're not daft but you might not have considered it) and a journey there which might normally be 20 mins is more like 45 in the rush, so best set off in plenty time. the coaches will wait a few minutes for latecomers but it's not open ended.

I used to do the same when I worked shifts. The amount of times I had to take the crappy shifts just so that I could get a swap and go to the game, I've lost count. Worth it though.
