After Friday night’s superb victory over Glasgow, our young stars need as much travelling support as they can get as they face a rematch in Scotland. You can be there for just £45 – but be warned, it’s only for the hard-core fans!
Following the young Blues’ excellent performance against Glasgow, the boys are in a great position to push for a Heineken Cup Quarter Final qualification, if not a spot in the latter stages of the Amlin Challenge Cup, but they’ll need all the support they can get in the Scotstoun Stadium.
You can join the #BluesFamily in the West of Scotland from as little as £45 for ticket AND travel;
The Megabus Gold is an overnight bus which offers beds, free Wi-Fi and food and runs direct from Cardiff city centre to Glasgow. Leaving at 11.30pm, the bus arrives at 7am Friday morning – match day – and costs just £15. The return leg is exactly the same, departing nightly Friday and Saturday at 11.30pm, getting back to Cardiff by 7am.
A friend and I have just booked to leave Thursday and come home after the match on Friday – mainly because we couldn’t quite stretch for a B&B! This total journey came to £30 each. Full booking details can be found on the link below:
Of course, if money is less of an issue, or you just don’t fancy the prospect of a long bus journey, flights are of course available from around £80. Try www.flybe.com or other budget airlines for prices.
Standing match tickets are priced at just £15, if booked in advance, or £20 on the door. Full price details can be found via the Warriors’ site below:

Let’s not under sell this, having beaten Toulon and Glasgow in their past two HEC fixtures, Friday night is a HUGE opportunity for the Cardiff Blues to continue their quest in one of Europe’s two competitions and you could be part of the travelling Blues support in what promises to be a brilliant Heineken Cup clash.
If you’re thinking of joining/already booked, perhaps you could leave your travel and overnight advice on the message board below.
Allez Les Blues!
