I am. Think this is a must for town fans in London.
I got my train ticket from Kings Cross for £20 return and it's only about an hour and a half journey as well. Only problem is I hear it's a bit of trek from the nearest station (Meadowhall) to the Don Valley.
Going up with a load of Cardiff fans who have Doncaster that day.
Last time I went there I saw Kelly Holmes break the British 800m or 1500m record.

Yes I'll be there as bs said above it's quite easy from London, get into Sheffield around 12.45 i think. The Don valley is on the end of the tram line, about 15 mins apparently.

Would this include after dinner nude wrestling by the fire and then bed SY ?

Where did you get it for £20? Can't find that price anywhere. |

Got it a couple of weeks ago on Trainline. Just seen they've gone up to about £45 on there now.
A lot to pay out so soon after Christmas. Sorry for giving out false hope.

I saw in the millennium at the Don Valley. Messy night |

Got cheap Virgin first class tickets to Manchester when they went on sale so it's a weekend up there with 45 min train journey to and from Sheffield.

Just tried to buy a ticket from Kings Cross, no go, no trains from there to Sheffield!!! Got to go to St Pancras!! Through trains every half hour or so from there, £45 return. |

Yeah St Pancras to Sheffield, but I'm going via Doncaster to Meadowhall so its Kings Cross for me. There isn't much difference in journey time anyway.
Will this possibly be our lowest away following of the season? Haven't heard many people saying they're going? Not great timing to have such a tie after Xmas when so many went are going to Torquay, Northampton, Wigan and Barnet tonight.

Probably will be our lowest, as we've had some big games and big followings recently, no one has endless pockets. Sure there will be 300 odd at least though.

The Withdean-esq view from the away end put me off this one, won't be going to Rotherham until they get a ground of their own.
