Any southerners going to Durham?

....if you are, then check out the planes before the trains.

For the second time in my life, I'm flying to and from an away game, cos it's cheaper than the train.  Easyjet out from Stansted and BA back to Heathrow.....all for about what I pay in petrol for a home game!  Getting from Newcastle airport to Durham looks a doddle by metro and train.

might be a bit tight getting back in time for a 19-45 flight home.  The Ground and the railway station are a quite a way away from each other.  but £56 is a quality fare!

I'm on the 19.45, I thought the earlier one was pushing it a bit!  I'm hoping a shade over 2 hours should be OK for the return flight....check in online and no luggage?

i'm very tempted to join you! will have to investigate.

I'm heading up from Basingstoke on the train - tickets cost me £48. If I was going to fly there then I'd need to pay to get to and from the airport so I think I've probably got a good deal.

Don't go to Worksop, no game there!

Train to Nottingham, then get bus number 2 from Nottingham Victoria bus station. Takes about 45 minutes to get there.

Except there's engineering works on the Nottingham line again so it's a snail like replacement bus service to Grantham that takes an hour and a half on Saturday.

Oh, be careful about this.

I went back to Boston over the weekend just gone (for my birthday). I was supposed to catch the 1700 bus on the Sunday evening back to Grantham (an hour an a half was scheduled) - this was on the timetable I printed out. Luckily, I got there early because the 1652 came in on time. I got on that, asked the conductor about why there was a train and he claimed that 'there was never going to be a bus'.

Moral of the story: check with East Midlands trains beforehand!

If the weather forecast is accurate there will be no game on Saturday anyway. Snow forecast for Nottingham again.
