The trust are now taking bookings for seats for the away game to UCD on Saturday May 6th 2006. Kick-off is 5:15pm. Cost of the trip is 20 euro with bus departing at 1pm.

The numbers travelling will be limited to 25 * so early booking is essential.

* The trust are changing bus companies and are now looking to run with a bus capacity of 25. Please book early.

Please do not book a seat unless you are definitely travelling. Recently people have booked buses early and cancelled at the last minute. This tends to cause alot of problems so please be sure you can travel before booking.

Contact Gary on 086-1700687 or contact info@thebitored.org

[appreciate this being made a sticky please mods]

we're not using the same bus company anymore so should leave on time. but its a supporters bus for supporters so if people want to leave at one then we can do that.

its better to be early than late and even if we are 90 mins early we can stop off for a bit

only 7 ppl

yeah that is all and as result we cannot run a bus to dublin. decided to leave it as late as possible. ie after lunch today. We need a couple of days in order to confirm the bus and we cannot do this due to low numbers.

So unfortunately there wont be a bus travelling to Dublin this Saturday

heard a few people give out about the time as last train back leaves at 7pm , guess you cant win , in the old days we used to get big away support in Dublin and vice versa for Sunday afternoon games as could get train go to match and return by train and be entertained by the team on the way back to Dublin.

i just think that not many people want to go to a game which will have such a low attendance...i know we traveled for the Dublin game but thats cos we hate them.

you could be onto something ...we only had a bus of 14 to dublin city

its still rovers...whether we are playing shelbourne or ****ehawks fc there should be a sizeable support

The bus been cancelled wouldn't have anything to do with the problems between the Trust and the club by any chance would it?:confused:.
