EURO 2020

UEFA EURO 2020

Travel back to B’ham

Hi, does anybody know of any seats on a minibus or coach back after the game?

The chiltern line terminates at Banbury and the last train from Euston is sold out.

    No idea tbh but if you need someone to share petrol then let me know. I'm going from Coventry and would love to jump in someone's car.

    Try split tickets Simon?

    Euston to MK(Milton Keynes)
    Mk to Birmingham
    that last train to Birmingham stop at MK so you don't need to get off. Sorted. Worth a try?

    Edited... Just checked again and Avanti West Coast site showing tickets available for last one to Birmingham Simon. Ignore split tickets advice. Hope this helps.

    There’s an ESTC member called Mark who runs Ontheballtravel.com. Often does minibus/coaches from West Mids. Not sure if he is for Sunday but worth checking it out. He’s on Twitter as ‘Follow England away’

    From Avanti West Coast twitter via private message (I asked them for you just in case) and their reply was this (see below) 

    Services online shows as sold out to stop customers for services where there may not be seats available. If customers have open tickets or season tickets they can board the train as normal, we just ask that they head towards the unreserved coaches. This will either be coaches C and/or U.  

    Yes

    blogs: Ian Fenwick: England emerging for bright future

    I’m someone who is lucky enough work within the FA and the one thing I can say from my experience is that the future of English football is amazingly bright. Of course it’s not enough to always say that the things are going to be good in...

    blogs: Tim Vickery: Belo Horizonte a fair setting for England’s new beginnings

    Last time the World Cup came to Brazil, England went to the city of Belo Horizonte to be humiliated; it is the scene of that notorious 1-0 defeat to the United States. Perhaps humiliation is too strong a word this time. After all, England’s 2014 World Cup campaign has been marked by single goal defeats to former world champions, whereas back in 1950 the pride of the old First Division went down to what essentially...

    blogs: Graeme Le Saux: England can bounce back if they take a few risks

    After the disappointment of the last two games, it’s vital that England take risks against Costa Rica. We don’t need two holding midfielders, Roy Hodgson has to start Adam Lallana over Danny Welbeck and we should switch to three men at the back. There was a clear opportunity against Uruguay and Italy to go to a back three – it would have allowed us to put some of our inventive players into more creative...

    blogs: John Hemmingham: Let’s blow our own trumpet for once – come on England!

    I’m used to blowing my own trumpet but not when it comes to predictions – I think we’ll get a result against Uruguay, but I thought we’d beat Italy 4-0! You’ve got to be optimistic as an England fan, sometimes it’s blind optimism but if you do what we do you have to believe. I’ve been following England with the band for 18 years now and it has always been the same. Roy Hodgson...

    blogs: Tim Vickery: Uruguay may raise their game away from Fortaleza furnace

    In the build-up to the World Cup a Uruguayan company launched an imaginative advertising campaign. Draped in a sky blue sheet, the colour of Uruguay’s shorts, the ghost of 1950 wandered around Rio frightening the locals – no one ever here needs reminding that the last time the World Cup was held in Brazil, Uruguay walked off with the trophy. So there was an element of Brazilian joy at Uruguay’s humiliating...
