    Yeah Euston to Manchester Piccadilly 42 return on trainline, it's then a half hour train from there to Bury

    I did Bury away last time - we won 2-1 with goals from Hayes and Jackson if I remember correctly. The ground is OK, but really is just amongst a load of residential houses. Proper lower league style ground.

    gutted, didn't realize the season started so early and away that weekend :-(
  • SwisdomSwisdom
    I'm delighted - I only miss Bolton at home whilst on my hols!

    I'm told £42 return for the train to Bury...all over that if I can get away from my stag weekend in Bournemouth the night before

    This game will certainly be high on the Sky TV 'Big Game' list so be carefull when booking the trains :-)

    Can do it for £35 by doing as below.

    7.54am - Euston - Bham - £6 single
    11.01am - Bham - Manc - £9.50 single

    18.05 - Manc - Bham - £13.50 single
    19.54 - Bham - Euston - £6 single

    Not sure i could be arsed to do it this way for saving £7 quid though.

    Are we the Leeds United of L1 though?

    Or will that be Bolton...

    Was £42 on the train line but if you are booking three or more tickets via the virgin trains website I took an extra 20% off.

    £16.80 each way

    Not been so looking forward to this, how long does the tram take from bury back to Manchester? Just so I book a train back with enough time??

    You know you're Charlton if you can answer..

    It's the other side of Liverpool isn't it? Thought that's what the song was all about

    'So Bury, cross the Mersey'

    Virgin trains say it's free for under 5's but I've paid for my son so he gets his own seat. It was only £16 for him so definitely the best way to go

    You can get a tram from Piccadilly to Bury.

    Ideally you need to get to Manchester no later than 13.30 and get a train from Manchester anytime after 18.30
