Larscapaldi Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Ok so I'm going up to wigan but I actually haven't got a clue how. Getting to London would be no problem but I have to get from there to the JJB... Would I be best off getting the train, national express, ... Any advice would be more than welcome! cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedge Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Train or drive yourself. Should be a direct train from Euston to Wigan North Western, where the ground is about a 20 minute walk but broken up by the away pub Or get in contact with your local or the London supporters club who might be offering travel.

Larscapaldi Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 I'm coming from Belgium so the local supporters club is not an option I'm afraid. I'll have a look at the London one cheers mate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedge Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Belgian Supporters Club London Supporters Club (there is also a West London club and an East London club which you find out about on this site) Train times, prices, buy tickets (cheaper in advance) Hope this helps!

Larscapaldi Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 cheers for that! Contacted the london supporters club now but if that doesn't work out by train it's £55 return so I suppose that's okay, and no changes too! Thanks for the help!

Larscapaldi Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 not that I know of. It was possible in the past with ryanair but they don't do that anymore. I'll have a look if there's some others offering flights but I assume it will be costly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WallheathLions Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 If anyone is interested we are running a luxury coach (Tables, toilet) up to Wigan on Saturday from The Mount Pleasant Pub (Breakfast Available at extra cost) in Kingswinford, Nr Stourbridge we will leave the pub at 10.30am and will stop off for lunch on the outskirts of Wigan then to the stadium. After the game we will stop off for about 45 mins for a drink at a venue part way back to The Midlands. If you are interested cost is £25.00 per head (payment secures seat) Call me John on 07775 792989. Can make pick ups in Halesowen, Lye & Stourbridge.

What pub in wigan do the Villa fans go to before the game The away pub is called the Red Robin and is located opposite the Cinema complex by the ground. I think in reality there's probably only about 1 pub in Wigan which won't be predominantly villa on the day, it's one of those places we really take over (if we sell out).

There's a couple of pubs near the train station that were full of Villa when i went up 2 years ago, one was a spoons though i can't remember the name of either, just look for a pub with a few villa tops in and pop your head in.
