As opposed to between 20 mins (Rosebine) or 50 mins (Rosebine overflow) from our car parks on a Saturday afternoon/evening...!

Where is the Rosebine overflow car park?

I can see why  club want to wait to go after Ladies match but I cant see it working logistics wise - will literally arrive in time to take seats for k.o.

Im sure if that's an issue the Ladies KO time could be brought forward ?

20.15 kick off is a nightmare plus the last time the Club as opposed to Quinssa organised coaches (Cardiff) was not the happiest of outcomes and I got home at 0400 having travelled on a local bus not a proper long distance coach.  I think I will probably give it a miss but does anyone know if Zeelo coaches are proper long trip buses?

Just booked accommodation at Premier Inn close to the ground, currently 54 rooms still available.

I remember that trip well, for all the wrong reasons! We were on a double decker normal local bus, so very uncomfortable for a long journey, somehow the driver managed to drive through the centre of Bristol on the way home, then we had to stop for a long time while the door was gaffer taped to stop it falling off!! Eventually got back around 4am.
BUT AT LEAST WE GOT THE RESULT, IN A NAILBITING FINISH.

Well I guess at least the car park might be a dogging hotspot which would alleviate the horror for a couple of minutes but otherwise I’d rather slice off my scrotum with a rusty spoon.

Booked in the same place BB 10 of us going, as you say close to ground

Tickets on sale on Worcster site Feb4th apparently

And much rather go and support the team than slice anything off

Was on the same coach as you! Apparently a trip via Bristol was better than using the old bridge crossing!

Ah well - another 6 travellers lost from here too. Quins lose supporters, Worcester lose income!

That’s a shame.

If the club / Quinssa provided coaches back from the game - with supporters travelling up via train / other means under their own steam - would this make a difference? It would mean you could get home (Twickenham / London / maybe other venues) after the game.

It would be a shame to travel up with minimal fans for a 1/4 final.
