I've only been on the ico once. And will never again. Not my cup of tea. But this was about 8 years ago and at that time I think you had a option to be picked up from wednesdayite car park or in town somewhere (flat street rings a bell) but they will tell you wen you purchase the ticket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam1867 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 I also have only done it once and never again. Milton Keynes last season, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 I used to go on it quite often. However, having to sit near Fishcake all the way to Yeovil and back put me off and I haven't used it since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paolo Coopio Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I'm using it for Blackburn. Used it quite a few times with varying degrees of enjoyment. It's not as fun as getting the train but it takes a lot of hassle away. Southampton away about ten years ago was a right laugh. Arrived 4 hours before match so plenty of drinking time. Though, got sat next to someone to Wembley who literally was too big for one seat. Was the smelliest journey I've ever had to endure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDY Posted September 24, 2016 Author Share Posted September 24, 2016 Think I'll try wednesdayite coaches next time. Birmingham coach had all the atmosphere of a 52 seat hearse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG D Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Yep, the coach to Wembley was like a Saga trip to Keswick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 You should have gone to Yeovil and back with Fishcake, praying for that silence which never came... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expected a coach trip to an away ground to have a bit of atmosphere. I would imagine coach coach trips to cliff richards or Barry manilow concerts have better atmosphere. The last time I went on a coach to an away game was Cardiff play off final. That was non stop fun and frolics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
