A SOUTHAMPTON-based coach firm will see Saints into their second season in the top flight as a chosen partner for supporter travel to away matches.

Coliseum Coaches based in West End will help take thousands of dedicated fans to grounds across the country for the 2013/14 season. With 19 scheduled away matches in the Premier League, plus additional fixtures based on League Cup and FA Cup performances, the firm is set to have a busy time helping fans travel on away days.

The chief commercial officer at Southampton Football Club, Dominic Fawcett, said: “It is important for our supporters to enjoy comfort and style when heading to away games.

Coliseum’s high-quality vehicles and excellent customer service will provide them with great value, comfortable and hassle-free travel when following the club to future away matches.”

General manager of Coliseum Coaches, Mark Pitter, added: “We’re proud to be the driving force behind Saints away games travel.”
