So hoping I do not have to go , how lOng does it take on train?

BR3Addick

love that £21 with my railcard cheers elfsborg just bought my tranmere train tickets for 36

suprisingly quicker than i though 3 hours. Better than when we did it on the coach and it took 9 if i remember rightly

ElfsborgAddick

Your alright.

I thought £32 quid was great but £21 even better!!

ElfsborgAddick

Kimbo/ Takes apprx 3 1/2 hours

GretnaGreenAddick

Looking forward to this game, takes me 9 minutes on the train.

ElfsborgAddick

And a tad cheaper.

I'm getting married in Gretna before the game so we better win so not upset the day!

Thanks for the heads up. Train booked

ACDriver, your welcome. Expensive these away games so when you can save a few quid it is nice to spread the word

Friend Or Defoe

Cheers, I've booked a later return in case there's a pitch party!

Cheers, May have to get onto this today.

kimbo

Thanks (i think) now got tickets! had no intention to go until we saw this post

Southendaddick

Think I may do Carlisle again, not been there for 26 years.

We only get promoted in the North West

ElfsborgAddick

FOD, good idea! Can be a bit naughty Carlisle so have to be a bit discreet in town though.

ElfsborgAddick

RandC/Get in quick as the tickets can go quickly and the price shoots up alarmingly

ElfsborgAddick

Kimbo/For advanced train travel you can generally start looking ten weeks before the game, is much much cheaper generally than a couple of weeks before the game

I'm braving the train for the first time to this one with Sir Don & Simon. Missed out on the £16 outward ticket but managed to get the £16 homeward. Total of £39 so not bad, I guess.

What time are you guys leaving Euston ?

ElfsborgAddick

FF/Could have been a lot worse

CafcCrazy

how do you find this deal i can't find it anywhere?

Addickforlife

I'm just looking into trains to oldham....but there doesnt appear to be a station anywhere near the ground? Does anyone know what the best bet for getting there is?

ElfsborgAddick

CAFCC/Go on to the virgin trains site

ElfsborgAddick

A4L/You have to go to Manchester Piccadilly. They do not have a train station due to , I believe, an extension to their tram link. You have to get a bus, about 4 an hour, that takes 30 minutes. Sounds aggro but I assure you no problem as long as you give yourself an hour to get their from Piccadilly station.

Cheers Elfs, and which train line do I want to be using to get cheapest price to Oldham, preston? Sorry for all the questions!

CafcCrazy

im from gravesend quotes me £110 return still not that bad i guess, flights are cheaper at £70 mind you.

ElfsborgAddick

A4L/Both are on virgin trains, but Preston will not be out for another week or so.

ElfsborgAddick

CAFCC/Would be quicker as well I imagine

If you are getting really high prices then check the train prices for Euston to Carlisle or Manchester for whatever game you are considering. I was getting silly quotes to Huddersfield the other day but cheap to Leeds and then a cheap single over from Leeds.

But where would you fly to?
