If driving factor in the £5 Toll for residents parking protection, cash only unless they have modernised their operation.

What's the supporter's coach like for someone travelling solo? Don't need it for Leicester or Liverpool as coincidentally in the Midlands that week already but might look at it for others. I appreciate some might consider this a stupid question.

I live just outside of Liverpool and trust me, the drive from Liverpool to Brighton and back is consistently horrendous. Euston to Wigan and then Wigan to Liverpool on the train is by far the best way to travel, even with the additional cost.

Plenty of decent places to eat and drink in the city centre or head to Anfield for the fan park which is one of the better ones. Dare I say it better than the outside facilities at the Amex as plenty of food choices and places to sit.

Well it's the facilities outside the stadium, (or lack of them), that lets the Amex down in my opinion.

Just one burger and one fish & chips outlet, plus a stand where you can buy Harveys beer, and that's about it. Very few places to sit, and no toilet facilities either, apart from Dick's Bar.

Think there is shuttle bus service before and after.

For either Liverpool or Everton, I catch a bus on the other side of Everton Valley back to City Centre. Yet to fail getting the 5.45 back to Euston though this is the first year I won’t be tied to an advance ticket for that time.

I have been away 20+ times in last 5 years , every time by coach on my own. No issues at all - you meet a few people as well or you can choose to ignore or just go to sleep. Have been with Seagulls travel, Liz Costa ( stopped running) and Bluesaway. All ok , Liz had best coach, ST always got my details wrong and would end up having to change coach but got there, Bluesaway have been the best for me.

Well paying £90 isn't very much cheaper, plus the inconvenience of a change of trains at Wigan.

? £130 is nearly 50% more expensive than £90!

Also, is swapping trains really a massive inconvenience?

4 of us travelling up on the train, can have a few drinks, have a reserved table.

Travelled to Chelsea on Boxing day by coach and never again.

Also travelled by car to Liverpool in 2017 and took a lifetime.

Just to clarify here - Liz Costa organised the coach(es) for the Supporters' Club. Although she has retired from performing that duty, the SC is still running coaches, for instance:-
