Bus replacement from London to Norwich all weekend
You can get the Thameslink from Brighton to st Pancras then from Kings X to Peterborough and change for Norwich.

Go to Cambridge and change for a local service...

Drive job methinks.
No trains to Cambridge from Brighton afaik. or from Liverpool St to Norwich.

Hence the suggestion to go to Peterborough from Kings X then from Peterborough to Norwich - (which adds about 30 mins onto the journey)

According to the Trainline, there are also engineering works between Royston and Cambridge, with rail replacement buses.

That’s why I am saying go to Peterborough from King’s X on the LNER Leeds train - it is a different line than the Cambridge train. (In fact looking at Trainline, the train to Peterborough from King’s X is direct and takes the same amount as time as the slow train to Cambridge)

The Thameslink from Brighton will take you to St Pancras/King’s Cross.

It’s my area and I have used all these routes - there’s frequent engineering works on the Cambridge London stretch 🙄

Decent tie. I hope to go.

The magic of the cup eh? Those poor Stockport fans. Can you imagine the tension? Waiting the full draw from their dream tie and then the joy when they got it.

After the Norwich game we play Ipswich away - no point in coming home ?
What, straight after the match ? That's a bit unfair.

Stockport …. they should’ve sent Palarse down all those years ago on a Sunday and fckd up.
I had a double on us to go up that season with that lot to go down. Cost me a small fortune, wankers !

Banana skin. :(

Apart from one of Arsenal and Man. Utd. going out, City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Villa and Newcastle all handed free passes to the fourth round. :( :(

When was the last time the Cup holders went out in Round 3 ?
Arsenal 2017-18. I don't enjoy questions like that because I feel forced to look it up.

All hail, Wiki
