Wigan Athletic Away - 21.08.04

[Charlies Shinpad]

Going up via Manchester, £12.50 each, first class, a lot cheaper than the Virgin service.

Where did you get that deal from?

 

[Beach Hut]

More than likely Midland Mainline via St Pancras ?

Where did you get that deal from?

Midland Mainline. I can get £19 first class tickets with them anyway and they have also given me a couple of free weekend passes, so we split the amount amongst us and it means £12 first class travel. The downside is that we have to go into Manchester and then get another train from Victoria, but as the prices Virgin were quoting were very high, it seemed the best option.

Given Virgin Cross Country's reliability does it actually state which day you will arrive?

I didn't actually say what day I was leaving...

How many orchards are travelling with you?

 

[Sonic The Hedgehog]

Not planning on any at the moment, but expect I will be thirsty by Birmingham.

 

[Rougvie]

Probably driving down and back from Aberdeen as I have a funeral on Monday up there but am planning to drive up on Thursday.

Raelly determined NOT to miss this one

By the way the pub by the stationis called "Swan & Railway" - see you all there around one o'clock (as long as Virgin aren't having a bad day)
