Firstly, I personally didnt know until late of friday night /early sat morn that I was going to the game.
Secondly, we were travelling with 2 utd fans, and I doubt that would be accepted on an ICT supporters bus.
(Had I planned the football match with just my ICT friends then I may well have got on a supporters bus, as I have done a few times in the past. As my working rota is only a couple of weeks ahead, and I cant guarentee weekends off, it seems pointless to take up seats on said bus if I cant make it.)
And finally, it's Cheap/Free for myself on the trains as I have a family concessions pass. Hence one of the reasons I made so many games when I was youngster travelling from Coventry every other week(ish)
Rant Over.
Actually, one more thing, where does it say I intended to drink alcohol therefore being my reason for taking the train and not the bus?
