Or those who will admit it....
How far in advance do the coaches usually arrive at PR?
Taking the coach option to Barnsley, and want to get there before the coaches so I can try and bag a decent seat - only the first three coaches have reserved seats, and we're on coach 4. |  |

They only get there 15/20mins before.
What seats are you looking for? Back? Ones that overlook the toilet? |  |

Is it still Galloways that run the coaches?
That was my away day apprenticeship back in the late 80s. Think they used Eastern National for the first two years of me going, before one of them blew up on the way to Molineux. |  |

My first forays were on the yellow and green Eastern Nationals, then Galloway took over from around April 1990, except for a brief period a few seasons ago when someone else had it and it didn’t work out, so Galloways have it back again. | |

Isn't Galloways now owned by Stephensons? |  | | |

About 15 mins before normally. I'm on coach 7 collection at Stow so have asked the club to reserve me two seats together for us as it's a free for all and want to sit next to the boy for the journey. Be careful what seat you take - you will find regulars who like their normal seat and get grumpy if someone else is there | | | |

As others have said, coaches arrive about 15 to 20 minutes before. People (even those with reserved seats) start to get there about 45 to 60 minutes before departure time, no idea why! I got my timings wrong for Derby, got there about an hour early and there were already several people there before me! | | | |

It's becuase its the highlight of their social calender and they have specific seats. I've learnt this this year being a 'coachie' | | | |

That’s the best bit, annoying all the super fans that think they’re better than everyone else as they go by coach every week.
The coach ultras who have made it to steward are the worst. | |

I normally have to travel by coach as I am unable to drive. As my 12 year old comes with me it usually works out cheaper and easier to go on the coach. It's a means to an end but the constant bashing is a bit much now. Some people have no other options sometimes | | | |

The main difference from the old travel club days is you now have specific seat numbers on your email and you have to sit on that seat. It gets interesting when those seats don’t exist as has happened every time I’ve gone this season to someone!
Not like back in the day with fans putting their flag up in the back window and having a chant on the way |  | | |

Only the first three coaches, after that it’s a free-for-all.
Got my flag ready for the back window. | |
