I note that for Liverpool home games there is a special bus from Lime Street to Anfield stadium. Anyone know if this will run on Sunday? I can't find anything about it on the RL Websites?

I don't know if its still the same, but last time I went I walked (only a few mins) to Queen Square Bus Station and they have buses going to Anfield about every 10 mins - took just over 20 mins on the bus as it stopped quite a few times. Might be worth checking out?

“You are playing a game of football this afternoon but more than that you are playing for England, and more even than that, you are playing for right versus wrong. You will win because you have to win. Don’t forget that message from home. England expects every one of you to do his duty.”:1230.gif |

For the Four Nations game at Anfield we walked round to Liverpool Central and got a train to Sandhills and caught the Soccer Bus. All ran very smoothly although I must admit I'm not sure it's any quicker than just jumping in a bus/taxi from the city centre.

So it's 20 minutes by bus from the train station to a major international match ?
That's further than the LSV , I await the howls of derision and criticism on here
|
|
|
|
|  Are we possibly the only sport where it is "de rigueur" to find fault with absolutely every detail of an event?
1. Match being played at Anfield
2. Buy tickets for match
3. Google is pretty much perfect for finding out everything else, but if any info is missing, there will be a number found on google to call the transport agency in Liverpool to find out
4. Nah....it's just Easier to post inane questions of a RL forum
From 12,000 miles away......5 minute walk to the Greek Street Bus stop (C) and then a 16 minute bus journey on the #17 bus.

| Why do people complain they can't go by train. I went to Liverpool on the train today and both journeys were delayed and standing room only, total rubbish  |

6 of Liverpool FC's home games this year have been on a "school night"...as in there was a working day the next day, yet they have had only one sub 50k gate and that's for a competition that most sides field their B-Teams in.
The RFL have had months to sell the game and failed miserably, but it's posts like your whining about the travel scenario that is indicative of why the sport is on its 'arris. England have a side capable of competing and beating the best in the world and yet only 26,000 could be bothered rocking up to watch them......look south a couple of Hundred miles to TW2 Towers and see how it's done. The onion lot play Japan in a couple of weeks and it'd be no surprise if the gate for that one game against a 2 tier nation outsells the entire Kiwi series.
I remember many posters across multiple forums whinging that there was no home international after the 2013 RLWC........yet when we get 3 against top class opposition the excuses are rolled out.......

Well I'd have gone , but as we don't have a train station in Leigh , I couldn't make it
Now if there was a road or a motorway from Leigh to Liverpool , I'd have definitely gone
Shame that

HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.
