un real tbh what is the legalities with this, can you sue or is it one of those small print areas, if you cant sue rob the beers and wine from the buffet cars
I really do feel for you guys. Its so s*** that you have made the effort and spent the money only to be shagged by the trains. Has anyone tried to see if they will delay the game by 15 mins?

I don't think 15 minutes will really make a difference if there's only one bus in Kettering waiting to take people!
At the very least, if everybody gets together as a unit, and makes a very public fuss, you could embarrass Network Rail (cos its their fault if its signals) into paying up for the fares. Combining it with the admission might be more difficult. Wednesday wont want to give back the money.
For you guys on the train here is what is happening
