ST10 appears to still be leaving at 13:00 from Burgess Hill - assuming not many stops further on should be through Dartford in 90-120 mins I'd think. Leaving after 14:00 from Worthing sounds optimistic................

I'm on ST11 I think (email on different computer). Pick up Uckfield after 1:00.
Having done this journey before I'm a bit worried.
On a coach it's 4 hours
Presume we go via T/Wells add 30 mins.
Dartford add an hour.
Always a 30 minute stop plus driving in, counting seats adds 15 minutes.
M11 average speed 50 mph add 15 mins
Pick ups (may be 3 more) 30 mins
Arrival time 8:00
Oh Dear.
And there's free drinks and food for us all as well so the queue when we get there will be long.
PLAN B
Norwich Police may be up to something. Escort out may mean an escort in as well.

Don't forget the walk from the coach drop off to the ground, about 10 minutes I think from two years ago - after the game will take AGES to get out of Norwich, I'm fully expecting to be indoors at about 4am

Planning to leave at 2.15pm precisely. But that's dictated by work. We are in a car that will get there quicker than a coach. Would be surprised if the coach leaving Lancing at 2.15 gets there much earlier than 7-7.30.

Info:
My company are providing coaches to the game tomorrow and I have been sent the following information from NCFC
Coach parking: coaches are not permitted to arrive until 2 hours before KO. Any coaches arriving after 18:45 Will be turned away again.
Therefore, there is a one hour arrival time window for all coaches. This may explain departure time reasons to those interested.
I reckon Birchanger services will be extremely busy and suggest stopping elsewhere for those that have the choice.

What's the logic in that ?

I'm only passing on what I have been sent. I have no say in the policies for away supporters coach parking arrangements.

Done the journey to Norwich/Norfolk via A12 or M11 loads of times.
Even if M25 is a nightmare (which it might be) then i've *never* had a journey > 6 hours (which would mean arriving at 7pm).
5 hours would be v.unusual (and thats arriving c6pm)

But 1845 is only ONE hour before ko. Do you mean the coaches can't arrive before 1745?

PG (ST15 tomorrow)
There is a 1 hour window of arrival opportunity, which is between 17:45 - 18:45 only

I read it quite clearly as they are not allowed to arrive before 1745 (2 hours before kick off) or after 1845 hence the mention of a 1 hour window for the arrival

Drove up this morning. Left Worthing at 10.

30 minute stop and was here by 2.15. The a11 was crap too.
