we cant be that hard up can we? well on friday at 3pm i saw the team coach travelling along the A130 towards the A13 obviously heading towards london for the game on the saturday. but why splash out on an overnight stay in a hotel for the players and officials??? surely they could have travelled down on saturday morning for the game??? instead of wasting money on hotels?

If they get held up in traffic or break down and have to call the game off they are very heavily fined by the F.A.....its normal for the away team to travel the day before, its all part of the pre-match routine.
