Centrebus matchday services will be in operation on routes from Market Bosworth, Market Harborough and Oakham for the opening home game of the season this Sunday.

Kick-off is at 3.00pm and all three services are scheduled to arrive at Welford Road at 2.30pm. Services depart for the return journey half an hour after the final whistle.

Note that the service from Melton Mowbray is no longer in operation. Oakham is now the nearest alternative for supporters in that area.

Please use the Bus Station to join the service in Oakham because stops on Northgate and at Barclays Bank are unavailable due to roadworks.

If you are travelling from the Rugby or Lutterworth area, there is a supporters’ coach from the Seven Stars Pub in Albert Square, Rugby which also picks up at High Street, Lutterworth if requested in advance. Please phone 01788 535478 to organise a place.
