Did the squad fly back to Brighton?

[ROKERITE]

I read a few days ago that the B&HA squad were flying up to Newcastle before travelling on to Carlisle. Does anyone know if they flew back, and thereby gave the squad the best possible chance to recover, before the trip to Plymouth on Tuesday?

Flying back to heathrow then coaching it to Plymouth

 

[Mr Everyone]

Flying back to heathrow then coaching it to Plymouth

Instead of flying direct to Plymouth?

Instead of flying direct to Plymouth?

That seems the most logical or even Exeter or Newquay.

 

[Rambo]

I passed the team coach on the a34 last night about 10.30pm heading south.

They turned onto the M4 heading towards London.

 

[BensGrandad]

So possibly went home and will fly to Plymouth Tuesday morning or even possibly go by coach.

Surely they would fly back, have a day off today and then go to Plymouth on Monday after training? I don't know, just guessing.

I think we'd all hope so; that would be the logical, sensible thing to do, in order to give them the best chance of three points.

As it is an evening game may well fly to Exeter or Plymouth Tuesday morning and then come back by coach after the game.

Strange route. If flying to Heathrow, you'd head straight for the M25 surely? Any accidents yesterday on the M4/25/40? I went by train.

I passed them on the M25 at some point after 10.30 last night. Not sure exactly what time and where .. but arrived back in Brighton by 11.45pm

SCR said they flew up and drove back goodness knows why.

a number of fans report sparrow travelling back on the train

Seems strange would have thought that other way around would have been better as they had all day to drive up their on Friday or better still fly both ways.

Do they have small 20 or 25 seater planes from Shoreham to charter. Chartering a plane is a lot cheaper than one would think.

who really cares as long as they are fresh for the argyle game beat them by 3+ goals and say "we are top of the league, say we are top of the league!!!!"

it's only Carlisle and Plymouth for christ's sake, not the other end of the world. Coach back from Carlisle, sleep on coach, home by midnight, all day Sunday to rest, light training Monday morning, coach to Plymouth Monday afternoon/evening, rest on coach, light training Tuesday morning, beat Plymouth Tuesday evening, coach home......what's the problem?

Saw Sparrow on the train going to Doncaster to a wedding.
