Apologies for the delay on this, circumstances beyond our control!

The coach to Celtic a week on Saturday is now on sale, priced at a ridiculously low £25. Seats are limited and will sell out fast, so get booking to avoid disappointment.

Travel is available to Halifax this Thursday priced at £10 return. Coach leaves at 5.30 from The Willows.

Call in and get your tickets or reserve and pay on the phone. 0161 736 6564

Well that’s it. All 600 seats on the Rugby Special from Eccles to Blackpool have been sold out and there will be no more. Ever. None. It is the longest possible train Northern Rail can fit on the station at a 600 capacity and we’re delighted we managed to fill it so as ever thanks for your tremendous support. It’s the equivalent of around 15 coaches, plus the coach that’s also going along with everybody driving, it’s going to be a special day.

If you are on it it’s going to be a day to remember. Reds’ merchandise will be on sale on board.

Next stop, Hogwarts. All aboard etc…

Steve will be here shortly to tell you about new flags and car flags that have just come in in the nick of time…

Firstly, apologies if you were caught up in the long queues at the ticket office tonight trying to buy cup final tickets - the Ticket Office staff did a fantastic job under pressure, but unfortunately the numbers buying did mean the wait for some was a little longer than we would have liked.

Of course, it is a nice problem to have.

We have now sold out of our original allocations and are well into our final additional allocation. Blocks L, K, J, H, G & F are completely sold out, the only blocks now with tickets remaining are C & D behind the goals, and there are limited numbers remaining in each (from memory I think block D is also almost sold out now).

The train and coach travel also sold very well tonight and both are well on the way to sell outs.

With the success of the tickets and travel, as well as a thrilling win, I’d say tonight was a great night for the club all round. Hope you are all looking forward to our next game in Blackpool next weekend!

We have this morning managed to arrange with Northern Rail to extend the train to Blackpool by a further two carriages, taking the capacity to 600 and meaning a further 150 places are going on sale this afternoon, again priced at the ridiculously low £5.

We expect these to sell quickly, so if you want one or more we would suggest buying this afternoon or at tonight’s game!

Quick update.

The train has now completely sold out.

Just gone on sale is coach travel. This is again being run on a not for profit basis, and seats cost £10 per person.

The coach(es) will leave The Willows at 11.30am, and will set off back from Blackpool at 5.30pm. Tickets are sold on first come, first served basis, spaces are limited and expected to sell out quickly at that price!

Thanks.

As of 2pm today there were only just over 50 seats left on the train to Blackpool - we expect they will be filled by tomorrow morning at the latest, so if you want to go, book now!

Not in the office today so can’t give an update on ticket sales, but will let you know remaining availability tomorrow.

Thanks.
