or the added extra time version....
Anyone know why at the start the players are getting on the bus at Portman Road and then driving away from the ground, only to return?
I thought they met at the training ground and came to PR.
Maybe the bus driver said...are you sure you're away today lads?

I think they usually do, but may have been a different routine this time round due to the international break. |  |

Think they drive themselves to Portman Road - leave their cars there. Get the bus to Playford Road for final meal and prep, etc and then get the bus back down. After the game they then go home straight from the ground. |  |

I had a funny thought of a couple of blokes bringing all the cars from the training ground to PR whilst the game was on  | |

I love the Town in 5 (and the added time versions) even though you know exactly what the content will be:
Establishing shots:
Panning empty stadium, fans walking towards the ground, preferably a parent and kid holding hands. Few shots from the fanzone
Player arrival:
High fives for the stadium staff, banter with the camera man (usually from wolf or Clarke), dressing room footage
Pre-Match:
Player warm-up, brief footage of shooting drills, maybe time to sign an autograph or two
Game:
Various shouts of “Come on lads”, ruffling off mascot’s hair and, always, always, always Morsy looking IN THE ZONE. Goals and chances from various angles. (Should switch north stand camera angle so you can see blue action boys celebrating)
Post-match:
Celebrations, fist pump, crowd footage, end on a song with player or manager saluting the fans.
Formulaic brilliance and I can’t get enough of it. Although still haven’t watched one when we lose. Happily haven’t missed many. |  |

I remember one previously that was commented on when the bus driver said "see you next week". I think a lot of us wondered how they then got back to their cars, but it makes sense now! | |

I loved them saying hello to the bus driver like he was one of their teammates.
Refreshing to see, when you consider Birmingham City brought in fines for players who didn't say hello to members of staff.
(yes we may have similar, but don't burst my bubble that they are all nice guys) |  | | |

Fined a months wages and 3 game ban if you don't greet the bus driver with a smile and a handshake I hear  | |

against Leeds they went for a stroll along the river bank pre departure. I was driving along nearby and saw them all walking along. Had to take a second look. |  |
