farkin idiots
how hard is it to have seperate trains for each set of fans

 

[skilbeck]

are they going to at least separate carriages?

 

[northernspirit]

you can guarantee the answer will be no and there could be trouble on the return trip

 

[striker]

you don't expect the workers at Cityrail to get of their arse and do something?

i hope there's not trouble on the train..... or at least make it safely to epping station....the you guys can murder each other!

 

[Bex]

It really wouldn't take that much intelligence to figure out that it would be in everyone's interest to run separate trains for the separate fans.

Say, a train from Newcastle all stops to Morriset and then direct to Central.

Also, a different train kicking off at Morriset with all stops to Hornsby and then direct to Central arriving at least half an hour later.

They could run that a couple of times before the game and the reverse a couple times after the game.

The FFA should get off their asses about this one.

Though i think the marinators club should also be speaking to the squadron on the issue, to try and sort this out.

 

[Bex]

Hehe, imagine that......... an entire train with yellow flags, streamers, scarfs - filled with yellow and yellow hanging out everywhere - chanting and literally going off all the way back to the central coast after winning the GF.  verhead: verhead: verhead:

 

[Jesus]

Perhaps we should all write to the FFA with our concerns?

Perhaps we should all write to the FFA with our concerns?

Feel free to, but don't expect much to happen.

Probably better off writing to the police!

 

[Auburn Mariner]

PLEASE NOTE:

In my position as Marinators Prez, I am on the phone to 131500 RIGHT NOW, I'll post as soon as I get an answer.

 

[Auburn Mariner]

OK, Part I:

The very helpful and delightful Jodie (guess where she's from; The Central Coast!!!) has put an urgent request to management on our behalf.

That is, could we please look at Newcastle, all to Morisset then Central trains AND ALSO Wyee, then Coastie station trains in BOTH DIRECTIONS.

At worst, I have asked for 8 car carriages separated by locked doors and LOTS of Security.

Part II to follow.

I am the point of contact here; 0421 922 910 if you need to speak to me.

 

[Yellowbeard]

Good stuff AM!

 

[skilbeck]

Yeah thanks Auburn, but how confident are you in talking to them that cityrail will organise it correctly?

 

[Auburn Mariner]

Skilbeck, I have told them that if they refuse our request, they will locked in a padded cell with Yellowbeard and I, with NO earmuffs and with me having been on a hunger strike for 48 hours.

Now, what do you think our chances will be?

[Bex]

Yeh, thanks Auburn. I hope for everyone's sake that the big wigs will actually listen to reason. We can pretend it was their idea if it helps...........

Is Jodie going to the game? ;D

 

[Auburn Mariner]

She has NEVER been to a Mariners game and was stunned that the Mariners even had a supporters group.
