gfa Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 For Reading it says station / football stadium. Unless it does two stops these are not the same place. The Madejski stadium is out by the M4 and would be the 2nd stop heading towards glastonbury if both are used (national express use the M4/madejski stop a lot so maybe they use both?)

kingcrawler Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 Sorry to hijack the thread but I'm getting the coach for the first time this year and don't know too much about it. Am I right in thinking the return time on the Monday doesn't matter too much for See coaches, they generally just fill up the coaches anyway? My return time is 14:30 on the Monday, assuming the times have rolled over from 2020, but I was hoping to get a much earlier return than that.

Stopping at both seems pretty possible based on their normal reading routes - although I didn't realise any coaches had an extra pickup stop.

Just gone back through old messages to find out, best I can do is at 13.32 I said "just checked, looks like we are still thirty minutes away'." So just after 2pm or so I'd guess! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFC1996 Posted March 31, 2022 Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 I’ve had 6 am from Liverpool on Wednesday twice and my mates had 10 am, not sure if this is a pattern but every time I got coach tickets in the first sale I’ve had 6 am, and my mates who had 10 am got their tickets in the resale. I got mine in the resale this year so hoping that isn’t the pattern as ideally would like to leave at 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The earliest time I've had of the three coaches I've had from Liverpool was when I got one in the last seconds of the 2011 resale. The latest was the 2017 general sale so I think it's just coincidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my friends got it in 2015 and it was the rail station. One of my other friends is on it this year and lives near the rail station so is praying it isn't at the Madjeski Stadium!
