My boyfriend and his brother in law are desperate to watch Liverpool away to Blackburn on boxing day but there is no public transport and i have tried everything. By any tiny chance is there anyone travelling there who would fit 2 more people for a return journey? of course they would pay petrol money. I know its a long shot but my boyfriend is so disappointed. The tickets will be sold out soon so he needs to find arrangements as soon as.

Please is there anyone out there????
i would be forever grateful and im sure he would be too

is there not a local blackburn supporters club in Kent, that would be a good bet to try

DingDongDraculaOnHigh · 14/12/2006 12:43

here you go they cover the south

it seems like a long shot!

There are probably Liverpool supporters forums they could try?

Is renting a car out of the question? I guess not likely to be able to rent for one day only then, so might be expensive.

also try the chat boards like this one

juicychops,

Where are you?

which side do they support? (sounds daft but could be important in getting a lift home iykwim)
these footy fans can be odd creatures!

I can ask my dh to ask his mates if anyone is your way. It wont be until tonight (After work) but will ask if you like?

onzephyrstdayofchristmas · 14/12/2006 13:29

Could they afford to rent a car? We've booked one for 4 days over xmas and it's only costing £109 - thats for a big car too....

Thanks busybusymum id really appreciate that.
They cant rent a car as neither of them can drive and i expect a cab would be a million quid!

busybusymum · 14/12/2006 13:34

I will get him to ask tonight and let you know what they say!

Hi BBM did you have any luck with searching for someone??

busybusymum · 16/12/2006 13:27

Sorry juicychops, no-one he knows is coming near your way. Sorry.

It s shame as I assume you already have the tickets. Perhaps contact local coach firms or what about the trains are they not running. So Sorry we couldnt help.

geordiemacmincepie · 19/12/2006 15:56

My boyfriend is a die hard red - try www.rawk.co.uk, this is the main liverpool supporters thread. Also will ask him if there is any other way of travelling

geordiemacmincepie · 19/12/2006 15:59

yep, RAWK (redandwhitekop) have a travel and ticket section which includes lift share, ticket swaps etc. This is without a doubt the best place to look as it is the biggest liverpool fan site. Hope this helps.. and that the red men win!!!
