You could get a return ticket on virgin, london euston to manc picadilly same day return for about £85 to £90 mate,but you'd probably have to sit with arsenal fans coming up and going back.Hi all, does anyone know if City fans in London generally put together coaches for home games? I'd be interesting in getting a ride to and from Manchester if so. Will be visiting London at that time and have a few folks who I think could help me get a ticket for the game but getting to Manchester seems a little bit tricky with those train prices.
Cheers, mate. I had looked into the train option initially but was confused about the wording with off-peak and and the like. Can't fully grasp why the "Anytime" option is so much more expensive if this guarantees you a seat also.You could get a return ticket on virgin, london euston to manc picadilly same day return for about £85 to £90 mate,but you'd probably have to sit with arsenal fans coming up and going back.

just chose the " off peak " option,but obviously book the best times for you,11.20 from euston arrive manc 13.50 and 20.21 manc to euston arrive 22.56 is £89.When you book with virgin you can collect your tickets at the station at a self collect machine,but you have to use the same credit card/debit card you used to book your tickets with,you can use that option if you don't have your train tickets posted out to you,also the quicker you book the cheaper the price will be,it goes dearer the closer you get to the travel dates you want,good luck !Cheers, mate.

I'll make sure to change my shirt for the ride back. Hopefully I won't have to hear them celebrating!
Abellwillring- along with blue44's advice there are ways of getting cheaper fares than virgin. You can get the 9:54 Euston to Stoke West Midlands trains service arriving 12:37 for £12.50 then 12:46 Stoke - Piccadilly is £8.30 or £3.50 if you can be arsed to wait til 13:25. You can get a single from Piccadilly - Euston with virgin on the 19:17 for £32 *just realised it's a 4:30 kick off for some reason so better off looking at a later train which are currently going for £29. Currently Euston - Piccadilly return for that day is £89.60.just chose the " off peak " option,but obviously book the best times for you,11.20 from euston arrive manc 13.50 and 20.21 manc to euston arrive 22.56 is £89.When you book with virgin you can collect your tickets at the station at a self collect machine,but you have to use the same credit card/debit card you used to book your tickets with,you can use that option if you don't have your train tickets posted out to you,also the quicker you book the cheaper the price will be,it goes dearer the closer you get to the travel dates you want,good luck !
