Cheap Trains Withdrawn already Sun 14th April.

[mrtwiceaseason]

£150 First class return from crewe for 2.

Not bad i suppose

Would have thought £60 with london midland was the better choice ?

My mistake, am driving down this weekend.

Getting train down for Spurs game.

Do crewe euston with london midland they have taken half hour off journey time and they have a 50%sale on at the moment woulnt expect to pay mre than £20 return for spurs game .hope this helps.

Disappointed that the trains are dry, will this be enforced by the police? were they dry for the last semi against United?

They don't sell booze on weekends but they never complain or make a fuss when we take cans on with us.

Virgin have tweeted that any alcohol will be banned on the trains from Manchester on Sunday - just wondered if the ban is on Sat too (given the Wigan SF)

Vimto bottle - red wine. easy.

wrap them in tin foil... were going on a different line to avoid this problem.

btw there are no restrictions for wigan fans on the Saturday motwyw... (but also no trains back for them so that will reduce the numbers... even more)

Just checked at Picc Station - the alcohol ban applies to Sunday 14th only. Alcohol is allowed on the trains on the Saturday.

Sadly they do. Luggage gets searched if they're suspicious. I've had Train Managers agree with me that they'd prefer fans sat down having a drink because it occupies them.

You could probably get away with the vodka and coke thing. I used to do it at gigs when I couldn't get served at the bar.

Its a shame as most of the lads would be fine and have a good time, its the kids that spoil it as they get pissed on the froth and start causing trouble. They got us thrown out of the King Alfred in Southampton as they were all mortal at 1pm straight off the coach.. I will be in the green man at 10am ready for a good days frivolity before the game..

I got pissed after the Southampton game to try and forget about the performance. Personally tend to stay away from the Fun Pubs everyone else goes too for weekend matches for the reason you mention. I like a drink but I want one in peace with an ability to hear myself speak.
