Trip to Bangladesh v England, Trent Bridge, Nottingham, Thu 8 Jul

[Roni_uk]

Hello all,

I am planning on organising a trip to Trent Bridge, Nottingham for the 1st ODI between Bangladesh and England if people here are interested. This is a day/night match, starting at 14:30 on Thursday 8th Jul. I will be hiring a 7-seater which will leave from a certain point in London (possibly somewhere from East End) at around 10am. If in an unlikely scenario we get around 13/14 people, I will hire two 7 seaters, just need a volunteer driver for the second car.

Ticket for the match can be purchased from Trent Bridge website or ticketmaster, costing from £35-£40. The trip will cost around £18-£20. Train would have cost you around £30 plus the station is not near Trent Bridge.

If you are interested, please let me know here or PM me. I would need the payment for the trip upfront so that I can go ahead and book the car. You can buy your own match ticket or if you'd like to pay me, I could buy it for you.

Thanks
Roni

I dont live in Eng, so cant help. But I was just wondering, and forgive me if I am being rude, if you have 13/14 people shouldn't there be at least ONE driver in those guys? Why do you need some 1 extra? Or am I missing something here?


Whats a 7 seater?

[EDIT]

Googled. LOL! It's a VAN!! Is that what you guys call it over there? Oh lord English people! And if I can recall in Bdesh they call it Microbus.

Yes its a mini van with 7 seats in it. There are also 5 seaters and 12 seaters ..

No you are not being rude. For one of the 7 seaters, I will the driver. If there is another one, I'd need a volunteer driver since I can't drive both ..lol. Hope it makes sense but you don't live in England anyway so why do you care!

PS - Bangladeshi microbus has unlimited seats, we don't have those here :P

But if 13/14 going, then 7 will go with you, and there will be another 7. Can one of those guys drive?

That's what he's saying. He is asking if one of those other 7 can drive the bus.

Ok I read the whole thing again. And this is what I thought he meant. He might take 13/14 of his relatives. And he is looking for a driver from BC to drive 2nd car. LOL

Coz if u guys leave right after the game we will reach london around 2/3 am in the morning and coz of that my mum wont allow me to go . She would rather prefer me to stay out whole night.


So if u guys comeback in london after 5am then im going

This thread is fast becoming an epic fail. Not a single person is interested to take a day off, spend £60, make a trip and watch our beloved country beating England for the first time in ODI!! Come on pplz.

[Tiger Manc]

Which stand do you intend on sitting? I hope to go the ODIs in Nottingham and Birmingham and maybe the game against Middlesex as well.

Allah July er 8 tarikhe besi kore bristi dao....

Do you know if you're allowed horns in the stadium for ODIs? What about banners and flags? Where dya buy t-shirts from? Cause at Old Trafford you couldn't bring any of that into the stadium and no one was selling t-shirts either.
