Title: Sheff Utd away
Post by: donkey on Sunday, January 11, 2015, 12:03:45
So, if we can win at Brammall Lane, for the first time since 1970 (I think), then we've got to have a good chance this year. Go us.

Can any of the London crew let me knew what train they are getting up, ago I can join them at Leicester.

If the Bradford game is cancelled I might make the effort for this one.

I'll send an email out to the London reds tomorrow and see what the consensus is.

Word of warning chaps. There seems to be engineering work going on that weekend. Looks as though they're going from West Hampstead Thameslink (wherever the fuck that is), rather than St Panc. Alternatively you can go Kings X and change at Donny.

Either way, not as ideal as it should be.

NW6 which is a real pain in the arse for me!

Fucking engineering work!

Looks like west hampstead much cheaper than the kings cross route fwiw.

Didn't think it looked ideal for anyone. Usually try to go through London (coming from Reading) but will go Cross Country via Brum now.

Got my tickets for this one. First time up there.

I think we're staying with a mate and having a night of it afterwards so a win would be most welcome!

Went to this one on the last two occasions and both were dreadful performances. Had thought about going for 'third time lucky' this time but checked the train fare earlier today and it's £47 (even with a railcard).   >:(

Great pub is the Sheffield tap. Read a while ago about one opening in Waterloo, but haven't seen anything. Been to the euston tap, but never York.

Also going to this, 6 of us booked train tickets from Swindon back in early December for about 30quid return, which isn't too bad!

driving to Cheltenham for a 2hr direct train to Sheffield is a possibility.

If you split your tickets at Birmingham shouldnt be too pricey.
