Providing the official Red Devil supporters transport to away games - We are back now taking bookings for coaches for this season which is going to be exciting - come and support your team on the road.
I was in two minds about travelling by coach. As I said to Pat on Saturday I thought it might be a closed shop/bit of a clique. Well I got that totally wrong. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming - and from one of our pubs we visit - Hello Alain. I hope that you have recovered after Saturdays result, disappointing but I suspect that some of your group didn’t know the result due to the amount of shots that were consumed just prior to jumping on the coach. As always it was an absolute pleasure to play host to you all, a more polite and social group would be hard to find anywhere. Please pass our thanks and regards to all members of the group as we enjoyed the day, one of the best we have had in eighteen years! Regards Andy & Donna Cross Keys and another from Supporter Neil Webster - Hi Alain Tony Bish and I really enjoyed yesterday and as you say, you have us hooked now!Status of away travel

PLEASE REMEMBER TO BOOK YOUR SEATS FOR OUR BOXING DAY AND NEW YEAR MATCHES – SEE OUR TRAVEL OFFER IF YOU DO BOTH MATCHES
We have 49 booked on for Orient, 4 seats remaining and 24 booked on for Exeter – thanks to those who have reserved their seats for either or both of these two matches.
Our game at Leyton Orient on Boxing Day, Thursday 26th December – with no public transport being operated we need to think about coach requirements and make sure United are aware we may need a number of vehicles as early as possible – with the re-arranged 1.00pm kick off we will depart from the Broadfield Stadium at 10.00am and will travel direct to Leyton. Cost of this trip is £30.00 per persons
Then 3 days later on Sunday 29th December we travel to Exeter City – cost for this trip is £40.00, leaving from the stadium at 7.30am. If you want to book on for both games we will offer a travel discount of £10.00 – so £60.00 for both games.
Travel update for Exeter City
We have now been able to arrange a pub stop on the way to Exeter at Ilminster – “The Stonemason” – we have stopped there previously – they are unable to provide a buffet for us but have food available if you want to order when we arrive – we should be there for about an hour and a half. We hope to arrive at about 11.30am depending on traffic, departing at 1.00pm for the final part of the journey to Exeter – prior to the main stop we may have a short comfort/coffee break at the Solstice Services at Amesbury about 9.30am again depending on traffic. Full details of the trips to Leyton and Exeter are above including the travel offer if you do both matches. On the return journey we will travel back to Fleet Services on the M3 to have our break.
We will start taking names for these matches from now but we don’t need payment for the time being – probably from 1st December. Hopefully this will give a heads up to how many supporters are going to travel, especially to Leyton Orient.
Please contact either Alain or Patrick to book your seat – Alain 07771-792346 or Email Alain_harper@icloud.com, Patrick via Twitter(X) or Facebook –
Payment for coach travel can be done via either bank transfer- (but please send a screenshot oy payment when made) or cash in Redz before any home game – all fares but must be paid in full before travel. We will confirm all booking so that you know that you are on the coach.
Just as a reminder and to let new travellers be aware – we do depart from the stadium at the stated time – we do not wait for late arrivals unless we either receive a text or phone call saying that you are on your way – we will only wait for 5 minutes – would suggest that you be at the stadium at least 15 minutes before we leave. You can park your car at the stadium if you want.
