Ooof good luck with that forget a coach as you will be paying for 3 days hire plus driver sitting around and that's if you will find a company that will take a load of boys to Blackpool on a jolly up. Trains you are looking at at the very least £100 each return and about 3 changes I know its an @rse ache but taking your own cars is the best cheapest and quickest option. We have stayed in a place called The Lark Inn AKA Party Inn a few times and its just stag do's hen do's football lads kind of place and there is a big car park about 3 minutes walk away behind the train station

You can do it with a single change at Manchester, but close to six hours and likely to be £100 plus.

At least the slow Swansea to Manchester train goes through some lovely borderlands scenery.

Groups of 3-9 up to 34% off. 3 groups of 9? But expect the prices to go up when the 1st group have booked.

Organise a bus. Get 50 of you on it.
Friday until Sunday would cost you about 1800ish
Charge £50 each. A nice earner.

Premiership days there used to be a taxi driver in Neath with a nice VW T5 LWB people carrier all he charged anywhere was a ticket for him and his teenage boy and a bit of grub and you pay the diesel job done! it could take 6 passenger comfortably, he would take you where ever you wanted before the game and you could drink in the vehicle and then he would boot it home after the game non stop.

We have booked our train tickets. Changing at Crewe and then the London - Blackpool express. As it is BH weekend and the train was nearly full I would suggest the Builthy option is the best :-)

Blackpool and the whole area will be rammed to the gills.If you like that,then it'll be a nice weekend.
Any of a more sensitive nature,like me,will be looking to get in and swifly out again intact.

Those driving up,£290 to park in Sainsburys a 20 min walk away.via websites

I know the quester spots as well. Still like a bit of life though. Sometimes I am too old to join but enjoy the people watching. Cheap accom for loads of footy matches too.
I am biased though. I just love the place and the sheer silliness of it all :-)

So no chance for my Socialist Workers Party fishing club then? Even if they don't pick their noses etc?

My thoughts exactly you can't book tickets more than 3 months in advance and its not a BH weekend?
