When we play Mangotsfield or whoever in pre-season I'll be offerering a package where I drive people to and from the Mem. They each get a ginsters pasty and a country choice cider. I'm thinking £39.95 a head? If we get a match ticket put me down for two.

Anyone thinking of booking Johns package might want to check the Trip Advisor reviews first...

It seems the club must be subsidising the official deals as they are far cheaper and also include a match day ticket, £235 for a flight and 4 nights named accommodation in the sun takes some beating, when compared against the £365 for the unofficial tour in so far unnamed accommodation. Sorry Topper, you really must do better. The shared apartment you are quoting is not including transfers, food, or just about anything else. Oh, but you will get a match ticket. For £365 they offer a complete package (alright you have to buy a match ticket). By the way Topper, its in a three star hotel, my sister has stayed there, it's across the road from the beach, not 2.5kms as in one of the quotes from Thorntons. I bet you feel a bit of a plonker posting this now the price has been dropped by £30? Not sure about your sister's taste in hotels either: Tripadvisor #136 of 162 Hotels in Albufeira

He's been online since those facts have been checked, and posted, but strange he's not posted in here. He was really trying to sell what a good deal it was so his pals could make a few bob.

Even if he is making a few bob himself (and I'm not saying he is) so what, anyone can do it if they want to. Barmy Army, Owzat, and all the other travel companies don't do it for bloody charity do they. FFS.

You don't have to register for VAT unless you turn over £82k in a 12 month period. I wouldn't imagine that he gets anywhere near that figure, so what's the problem?

I'm thinking £39.95 a head? If we get a match ticket put me down for two. Hadn't factored that in Gaz, shall we say an even £50 for our 'deluxe deal' (includes ticket and you get to sit up front in my car and choose the radio station).

Dear me, I didn't know I had to respond on this thread to come online.
Suffice to say, that early bookers as usual have got the best prices, much below the suggested price, and as if you didn't know, the companieß alwYs promote one or two rooms cheap. John and Stuart are trying to put group bookings together. After the cheap one the rest cost far more.
I've no doubt prices have risen since, but good luck if you can get a cheaper.deal

I booked my flights on Kayak, found they were cheaper than Sky Scanner, also went for Hotel De Aldeia as I'm booking this on my tod but know someone staying there (probably your party mariobalotelli, as I'm sure those are the flights he's going on too).
But each to their own at the end of the day, if you look properly you can get a really good deal, if you want ease, expect to pay a little bit more.

What a pathetic bunch of individuals live on here.
So some Gasheads arranged a trip to Sabadell last year, which was applauded by DC and the team and DC WANTED to return there this July. BRFC wanted to arrange it this year so asked their travel partners to arrange the teams travel with the option for Gasheads to go separately.
The original Gasheads decided they would again provide alternative travel arrangements and have come up with an "all inclusive" travel plan for which some on here are getting "exercised" for no good reason.
As long as John and Stuart are covering their costs I have no problem if they make a profit. Are you aware how much time they put into last years trip, they even produced the program for the game.
Get a life. I would have gone but the travel insurance for a forthcoming visit to America in June is the cost of this trip to Portugal and I also have to pay the season ticket cost by the end of this month.
The one disappointment is the "usual suspects" who are criticising will NOT be going, they only enjoy being a "pain in the ass" on social media and I would pay extra money to avoid those individuals if I were going.

Yep, shame on some Rovers fans on here lying to rip off other fans. I don't think many would have a problem with them making a little profit from this, for their invested time, but when they're apparently not making a penny from it, it's only right that Rovers fans know that they are making a penny from it and they can book the same exact holiday for £100 or so less. After all, they have themselves said they want to make it so as many Rovers fans as possible can be there. oh dear......... lol @ you You're welcome btw, for the cheap flights I linked you x

That Hotel Aldeia, you would be hard pushed to find another hotel in the world that is more colour matched to Bristol Sport, couldn't be sitting around the pool with a stinking hangover with all that Bristol Sport red paint around the place.

I thought it matched Bayern's kit, so I'm not fussed by the colour.
Bristol Sport mean nothing to me!
