Mad Hatters Coach Travel

28/02/2025

Good morning everyone, following on from my last post many of you may know I’ve been in snowy Austria. I promised to update you on all of the planned journeys to away matches coming up. However unfortunately whilst in Austria I (Connor) had an incident on the snow which has resulted in serious damage to my knee and I am still waiting to hear on if I’ll need surgery. Right now I have been advised that I can’t drive long distances due to various risks so as you can imagine that rules out driving for away matches. I know this may come as a huge let down and it’s not the news I wanted to be sharing with you.
I’m currently undergoing further tests to see the extent of the damage. When I find out the true extent of the damage I’ll know more about the recovery time and be able to gauge whether we can be back in business before the end of the football season. So unfortunately this is not the update I wanted to send out this week but this is where we currently are with things and I didn’t want to leave our loyal patrons in the dark

Good afternoon everyone from a snowy Austria, I’ve received many messages I’ve been unable to reply to etc, we are in the process of securing vehicles for Bolton and Wrexham more to follow on the next few days once I arrive back in the uk

Many Thanks
Connor

Here at Mad Hatter Coach Travel we know how important it is for fans to be able to experience the thrill of watching your club play not only at home but following them around the country. There's no better thrill than watching your club bring back a win, and although we can’t guarantee you a winning result, we can guarantee you safe and comfortable travel there whatever the outcome. We are committed to making travel for the football season affordable and accessible to as many fans as possible and have so far already released two saver schemes for families as being a family ran company; we understand the importance of being able to share your passion with the next generation of hatters.

Our current schemes include the One-and-a-half scheme and the Family Travel scheme. The One-and-a-half scheme is aimed at single adults travelling with a single child allowing them to do so at a discounted rate on top of our already affordable adult and child prices. Whereas the Family Travel Ticket provides a discounted rate for two adults and two children travelling together.

We realise the cost-of-living crisis has hit us all and non-more than our most vulnerable demographic, pensioners. Football is not just a sport it’s a community and a family and we know that this is something many of the elderly unfortunately may not find elsewhere in their lives. Our mission at Mad Hatters Coach travel is to make football travel affordable and this is why we are proud to introduce you to our newest cost saving scheme the Golden-Ager scheme. This scheme is accessible for fans over the age of 65, the discounted rate will be up to 10% of the cost of travel.

Why not check what we are about.

A Question we have been asked quite a lot over the last week is "Why have you created a website for football travel?" So here is a little background into why we chose to move towards this.

We here at Mad Hatters have created this website to streamline the booking process for you. We wanted to provide an easy, convenient way to schedule our services. The website allows you to see live inventory on seats currently available instead of having to wait for a member of the team to get back to you. This also gives you a platform to purchase tickets on which is safe and secure. This gives you reassurance that your travel is booked as you also receive an order confirmation which doubles as your booking confirmation. There is no more back-and-forth or waiting for confirmation—just quick, seamless bookings at your fingertips. I’m excited to make your experience smoother and more efficient! This also allows us to release promotions and discount codes to give you even more for your money!
