STAGECOACH SERVICE
In conjunction with Stagecoach, we have arranged for a bus service to take supporters away from Glanford Park after home games. This experimental scheme will run for the first four home Saturday League games of the season. The cost will be £2 for adults and £1 for children. The route goes from Glanford Park, at 17:05 and takes in Westcliffe, Riddings, Bottesford, Ashby , Old Brumby and into Town.
We are urging fans to use this service as it will help avoid congestion around Glanford Park, as well as helping the environment.
