Phil - Team coach 14:09 - Feb 11 with 4952 views | sitocastro | Phil Is it usually the case for the players to travel down vs Wimbledon? I thought they usually always stay over? Even against Norwich Only reason I ask as Norwood has put a picture up on Instagram with "game 2 hours away - leave 12 hours before" with loads of thumbs up. Another way of saving a bit more money? |  | | |  |
Phil - Team coach on 14:15 - Feb 11 with 4891 views | TheTrueBlue1878 | Presume every game is different, but I don't think you need to travel the night before for an evening game in London. |  |

Phil - Team coach on 14:18 - Feb 11 with 4854 views | OhDavidMcgoldrick | Norwich is normally a midday kick off, whereas tonight for an evening game I imagine the travel time is sufficient to give players an evening at home [Post edited 11 Feb 2020 14:18]

Phil - Team coach on 14:18 - Feb 11 with 4850 views | itfcjoe | The Norwich games are normally a 12pm kick off so staying over makes sense Can't imagine we'd ever stay overnight ahead of a night game only a couple of hours down the road |  |

I would suspect 3pm games they do. |  |

Yeah good point regarding the night game Just thought in the modern game (sports science) with travelling and waiting around it might fatigue them or I am probably thinking too much into it. Up the towen [Post edited 11 Feb 2020 15:19]

They should be made to hitch. Have it be like that SAS programme or something. |  |

So, if the matchday eighteen were dropped on to the end of Orford Spit at midnight with a fiver each who do you think would make it to Wimbledon by kick off, and who would get there first? |  |

Keane tried that. |  |

Crown Plaza or Premier Inn? |  |

On the way home if they lose, that should get them up for it... |  | |  |

Phil - Team coach on 18:22 - Feb 11 with 4032 views | PhilTWTD | They've done that a couple of times this season, I think. Might have been the MK Dons previously. The usual form is to travel the day before, perhaps a bit of a money-saver, perhaps also just as they're relatively close evening games. From the opposite angle money-wise, they flew to Exeter.

Norwood would. Will wouldn,t be so keen. Kenlock,s positional sense suggests he would end up in Oulton Broad. |  |
| We have no village green, or a shop.
It's very, very quiet.
I can walk to the pub. |

All those angry TWTDers who want Holy and not Norris would pick Norris up and take him off in the wrong direction. It would be a guranteed way of forcing PL to play the team we want him to. |  |

They could follow Jimmy Bullard’s lead, and get a black cab. He allegedly got one from central London to Newcastle’s training ground. |  | |  |
