South west England supporters

A fellow fan and I on our way were speaking about how many whites fans are based in the south west.

We were thinking of starting a group to see if we could get enough of us to start a supporters group that would take a mini bus to games to save individual transport.

Would this be of interest to anyone?

I have a brother who lives in Bampton near Tiverton, gets down when he can.
Would be interested of any details.

DevonFFC

Ideal thank you chaps, wanting to gather numbers so we can put together something.

I'm about 3 miles from Bampton. When I go to matches I normally go up to my daughter's in Hampshire and go with her as she's a fan as well but please keep me posted if this comes off as there may be other times.

Not living South West my self but have I met Fulham fans living in Taunton and Bath several times.
Only Sweden has Swedish gooseberries.

Intersting how you define 'South West. 'I'm down bottom end of Cornwall, near St Ives so have been rarely in last few years. If this does have any legs, dont forget to factor in holiday traffic. Normally a 3 day trip for me but getting up to Tiverton-ish area might put a different slant on in. Getting hold of premiership tickets is a different matter altogether.

We are thinking about running a mini bus from Plymouth or Tiverton and either following the a3030 or m5/m4. we are in Barnstaple and Exeter so that would be the issue to whether we paid for some to drive or hire ourselves.
A number of other clubs if they are supporters groups get given buying power for clubs, a friend down here is in a group for Liverpool and they always seem to get tickets for the suppprters group and then it is a first come first serviced in terms of who wishes to take up the seat on the bus.

Could be interested. 3 generations in Taunton. Hardly ever get to games, a group transport could help
