lmao nice one

10 times better than the chippy joke and more realistic!

If you don't want to taxi it, might be better going to Thatto Heath train station? It's quicker to walk I think? Might be wrong though.

Yep.

Thatto Heath is a 10-15 min walk, simple

It even put a smile on my face.

Could even get the bus from Thatto Heath station and get off at the Bird, only down the road from there. But yeah, probably only about a 15 minute walk from Thatto Heath station, straight forward too.

AFAIK the Saintsbus service between Lea Green station, St Helens Bus Station and Knowsley Road will be the same as last season but the [url=http://www.merseytravel.gov.uk/newsarticle.asp?articleid=868&catid=1link[/url is old,from 2006 so phone Merseytravel on 0151 227 5181 and check it out. I would of thought that there would have been something out about it if they had cancelled it and a lad i know who uses it said it was quite popular so cant see any reason for them cancelling it.

If you find out maybe you could post it on here?

Fly in Supreme Sydneys hover jet.

The Manchester trains don't go through Thatto Heath IIRC, it's a different line.

Best bet is to get off at the Junction and either catch a bus (there are a load of bus stops wihtin the station grounds) into town and then one up to the ground or get the 35 (alternate ones go up to the ground), or just get a taxi from the station that'll cost you in the region of £5 to £6.

Indeed, it's on the Liverpool to Wigan line. To get from Rochdale to Wigan, you still have to change at Manchester and if you were going to do that, you may as well go to St Helens Central

Called in this morning to check on the Saintsbus service and they say its been scrapped or at least nobody has heard about it so they assume it isnt running this season.

If anyone needs service bus info then they suggest:
Friday
121 service - every half hour or so
eg leaves St Helens 700 arr KR 710 or 732 arr 745
return 1030, 1055

Saturday
35 service (stand 4)every 20 mins or so
eg leaves 436 arr 445

return 820, 900

Saintsbus service scrapped? How bloody shortsighted is that? Crazy.

Easier option...


















Support the Hornets

It was a bit weird tbh, they didnt say it was definately scrapped, they said they hadnt heard anything about it for this year, and that they would know about it if it was running, so it cant be! You know when someone looks at you as if youre the stupid one for asking the question?

Theres also something in the legal notice part of this weeks Reporter about a prohibition notice for the streets surrounding Knowsley Road.
Couldnt work out what it meant could only assume there might be a problem parking on the streets that it listed,

Try driving sensibly in future.

Too right

Why would I want to, been supporting saints since i first got into rugby 20 years ago.

PS as for the ban Ive learned my lesson, u guys aren't my counsel

No, but you're the reason I pay through my rectum for insurance.

From RedVee.

Yep, Hattons has taken this up instead of Arriva. Maybe that's why they didn't know anything at the bus station.

Note the times on the Hattons link are for 7.30pm kick off so I don't know if they will be later for tonight.

you dont even know why i was banned and its not for speeding, nor drink driving

You should have checked your tyres.

Doesn't matter. Another youngish male driver banned, further excuse for the prices going up

You mean the big white double deckers with Saints all over them, parked on Knowsley Road, were a figment of my imagination?
