Advice & Assistance for Moseley supporters visiting in September

I work in the marketing team at Jersey Tourism and Tom Innes from the Jersey Rugby Football Club has passed your details on to me. I'm dropping you a line regarding the Championship game due to be played in Jersey on 15 September.

We're looking forward to welcoming you to the island and should any of your club supporters wish to travel over for the weekend or longer to watch the game, we can help provide information and accommodation.

Please could you pass our details on to anyone who may wish to contact us for assistance. Would it also be possible to include this information on your club facebook page, in your club newsletter or on your club website fan page if you have one? We are working with tour operators to advertise special offer packages to the island during the Championship games and as soon as these are available, I will send you further details.

Anybody booking to go to the match won't be alone as you will be able to meet up with the 20+ of us who have already booked to go by plane. Lets make it a party and show the players and Jersey fans what responsible, real support is.
Come on you Mooooose.

6 more Mose fans flying from Oxford on the Friday and returning Monday to watch the boys do the Biz.

Has anyone worked out the 'fast ferry' route? I (we) can't get Friday or Monday off work so were looking to go across Sat morning and return some time on Sunday.
From what I can work out (help!) this doesn't seem possible - ie the fast ferry only gets there after kick off on Sat..........quite possibly haven't read the timetable correctly but..........seems like it isn't possible.

If ferries not possible low cost carrier Blue Islands fly from Bristol & Bournempoth airports to Jersey, Manx2 fly from kidlington to Jersey if that helps.

Skyscanner.com showing 08.45 flight from Gatwick on 15th Sep return 07.00 on 16th @ £80

[observer]

Thanks all - much appreciated.

In case anyone else is looking for the same info:
Manx2 - about the same price (actually a bit more £210ish return)
Blue Islands - a bit cheaper (£170- £200 rtn) but no return flights on Sunday

Will follow up the Gatwick one in case that is £80 return (as opposed to £80 each way) but failing that I will have to double check the ferry since flying still comes to the price of a week in Majorca if there are 4 of you!

Hi Guys

Went across to watch the pirates game at the weekend. Very friendly welcome stayed with friends so cannot recommend hotels or guest house. Prior to the game went to a pub in the nearby village called the Star which also had a betting shop next door which was betting on the game, being a local shop they had Jersey as favourites so we filled our boots and the Pirates did not let us down. Hope you have as good a weekend as we had but beware you be a bit fragile for a few days after!

Four of us (two ex Old Yardlieans) flying out early Thursday. Hope to watch the Air Display daytime and live music on the night. We will probably visit their club on Friday 5-7 (Its their pre -match welcome apparently) to take a look. I know someone who lives there; he is coming to the game; he reckons he is one of ten Blues fans who live out there.
No wonder their gates are down!!
