Go Goodwins go the extra mile for Manchester City Ladies football
As part of an ongoing relationship with Continental Tyres, Go Goodwins agreed to assist in offering up to 250 supporters of Manchester City Ladies free travel to the recent FA WSL Continental Cup Final, getting fans to the game safely.
The Continental Cup is the FA WSL league cup competition, and was introduced along with the league in 2011. Following a number of highly contested rounds in which 18 teams competed, the final took place at Wycombe Wanderers’ Adams Park stadium on Thursday 16 October, with Manchester City securing a 1-0 victory over rivals and previous cup holders Arsenal.
Geoff Goodwin, Director at Go Goodwins commented: “As the official provider of the England cricket team's state-of-the-art transport at international games, we were really pleased to be given the opportunity to get involved with the Continental Cup. One of our most recent investments was in a Van Hool T916 Altano, team coach with televisions, tables, futura system, air conditioning etc. It seemed fitting to give our new coach its first outing at such a prestigious sporting event.”
Geoff continued “Many of our vehicles are equipped with Continental tyres and their customer focussed approach is something we appreciate, as providing first rate customer service on every journey is our number one priority.”
Established over 37 years ago, Go Goodwins is a family business in the truest sense, with three generations still actively involved in the running of the business. The company provides a diverse range of services in both the bus and coach market. Its coach business covers excursions and corporate hire as well as specially created touring holidays, while a new heritage coaching arm has pledged to carry on the tradition of the Regency Road Pullman touring company. Go Goodwins bus business features a combination of school and local transport routes in the Greater Manchester area.
