Boro away _ travel.

[Arkwright]

With it looking that the season will go down to the last game my mind turns to travel to Boro.

Last time I went was but train, fast to Darlington and then the service to Middlesbrough, good pub next to Darlington station and a Sainsbury's near by for well learnt refreshments.

I was thinking what would the possibilities be of the club or travel groups organising flights from Gatwick, I'm sure we would have a lot of support for this depending on costs. Had a quick look earlier but it doesn't seem possible on standard flights.

Think it's possible last time I looked but is crazy something like fly out of Southampton to Newcastle on the 7am flight arrive about 08.15 train to Boro then catch s ba flight back heathrow leaving about 20.00 as said crazy but do able would b great if club could lay a flight on one of my dreams to fly to a Brighton game would b amazing at Gatwick lol

Cheapest way by train is normally the Grand Central service to Eaglescliffe, then a ticket to Middlesbrough.

It's a great city,if you ever get to leave The York Tap.

In days gone by I drove to matches and she went shopping with her sister and reckoned she saved a fair bit buying the weeks shopping up north Nobody told her of the cost of getting to Darlington or Carlisle or stopping for dinner on the way home.
