Going all trains are a flat rate £114

thebdolded returns add an extea £18-£20 on the unbolded returns between £1.90 and £5.40

realistically the last 4 will be the only ones uuseful and will be unclassified and sardines, if I spunk £114-£134 it ainn't to stand up squashed next to an pissed up bunch of fuckers

Price is the issue not times for many bit factor in trains getting in after midnight when most buses/trams are done for the day you then have extra taxi dares for some.

I can afford one more jaunt to london this season, so I take the risk of paassing on this and that trip will be the possible final, and if we don't make the final a more relaxing trip to fulham as a consolation.

If you use split tickets and change at Crewe it is much cheaper. You go on the Milton Keynes route with West Midlands trains. Also cheaper to change at Brum and go on the Chiltern Trains which stop at Wembley Stadium. This season I have done all my London away trips this way.

As do I for all my lo do aways, also do the route via birmingham new st, I haven't took a direct train to London for an away for about 7 years.

Alas for sun 27th none of them are afforable to me and a few other opting to pas on this

Fair enough. The Avanti service is the biggest rip off of all time. I have started using Milton Keynes as a cheap overnight base for London (used to do Wycombe). Very cheap and rapid trains from MK to London (as cheap as £10) and I got a travellodge there for £27. I can't afford all the trips so I do pick and choose. Fulham is always one the best days out.

Good advice.

I have done a split ticket using Macc - Wolverhampton - London Euston and back and found it cheaper in the past.
Blagged Macc to Manchester on the return once or twice, no one gives a shit at that time.
 
Let the flix bus take the strain.
Not ideal but far cheaper.
08.00 Shudehill Finchley Road 12.45 the return 23.55 back to manchester overnight Shudehill 6.50
They aso have services running from Moss Lane East.
No rushing about pre and after match.

The difference is amazing. My first search for the Orient match from Preston to London was £127 off peak return. I ended up paying £37 return with split tickets and it only took an hour longer. Avanti are total bandits.

I've just bought 2 tickets for me and the wife in Block 136, and received the confirmation email straight away.
Can anybody remember how long it takes before the digital ticket is sent to our email address.
Cheers.
