You've probably already seen some of the pictures going on the bus ;) There was a photo shoot this afternoon for one particular feature and I think they're nearly there. I haven't heard of any delays.

The bus should be arriving at the ground at 12pm on the hereford game and should be sticking around until k/o so that as many people get a chance to have a look as possible.We will however keep everyone updated in the local press and of course on here.

Cheers :D

I am unfortunately the bearer of bad news, I can now confirm that the MFC bus will be delayed this is due to certain imagery problems on the bus, Stagecoach are working tirelessly to resolve the problem but we have been told to expect this to be delayed by up to a month.

As soon as we have anymore information we will update you again, I will see everyone on the 8th August.

Once again thanks for all your support.

Thanks for the update, but have to say that the supplier wants his arse kicking by you,the client. If a supplier promises delivery by a certain date and fails without giving good reason.....then I'd be on 'em like a ton of bricks. I'd certainly expect some kind of recompence if only to satisfy the concerns of the main sponsor in this case.

Todays business environment is about two things; Price and Customer Service. For me they have failed in the latter....big style!

I bet if it had been a larger commercial client the supplier would have acted differently.

However better late than never.

....not as daft as it sounds.

The publicity value alone could be exploited to its maximum....and think of the kudos for the main sponsor.

What have stagecoach done to deserve that? Massive assumption there that stagecoach have failed. All the lads are waiting on is some information.
