Anyone going up from London?
Looks like I will be able to get the time off now but with train tickets extortionate it would be good to share the petrol costs...
I had a look.. Prices were crazy. I think 16.15 to Leicester, change and wait 10mins for the 16.30 St Pancras-SHeffield and splitting the journey between Leicester and Sheffield worked out a fair bit cheaper thAn peak time London-Sheffield, if that's any help. |

Thanks but the major issue would be getting back, with the last train at 21.50 it would be very tight and if I missed it I would be fucked! |

1st game milwall at wembly, day tripping glory hunter good work Haha. I was following religiously a good few years before but it just never happened before then. Dad could never come with and being in Bath I didn't really know anyone to go with so coming to a game never really happened. 'notoriously quiet'

haha. That's not word for word what I said, but you can't deny the County Ground has been rather quiet of late. |

I think Langers is looking to get up there from London, so if he can't make the trip he'll be Londonwards. |

There will be a meet up. Currently it's in Sloane Square, I'll post exact location when confirmed. |

Just ordered my ticket. Presume I'll be able to pick it up before the game rather than at Swindon?
Was planning to get the train but it went up from £24 to £34 overnight so I'll be driving instead. Parking suggestions warmly welcomed.

There's a car park right outside the away end that we used last time, cost a tenner I think. Double check with the STFC box office, but pretty sure they said you can pick tickets up from their ground. |

I'm 100% sure they'll be sending the tickets to Brammal Lane if they're not picked up from Swindon. |
