Dad reckons I am mad for wanting to go further than my front door to watch Leicester play.

We don't deserve to sell any more than 1000 tickets.

 

[MHS]

Was hoping to go, but I'm at work. At least I get to save £30.

me, mr cope and the king of alnwick will be heading over for this one.......yet some stupid bastard bought the train tickets while under the influence of carlisle's win over forest and a fair few pints so around 1 should be our arrival.....might catch RS etc. before departing quickly for the ground

 

[Shents]

not sure what i'll be doing yet will probably get to new street about eleven so should have pleanty of time to find it.

 

[Hazzman]

Apparently, there is engineering works between Leicester and Brum New Street. Hence I can get a 8.50 return but be back home for 8pm.

You should be able to get back to Leicester at 19:32

Yes, you are correct. I asked the chap behind the desk to do the return journey from Smethwick around 1800.

If I went for the earlier train, d'ya reckon it would affect the price?

I have got it written down as £8.50 for the journey there and back. National Rail's website reckons that's wrong.

Why the **** are you going to Smethwick?

The Hawthorns station is right next to the ground. Catch the 17:08 from there to Moor Street. Short walk, well-signposted to new Street for the train back to Leicester.

I was told Smethwick was the station for WBA, that's all.

After clicking the buttons in, I came up with this

''ANY PERMITTED - Travel is allowed by any route option shown by the Journey Planner '' - that was after making the trips involving replacement buses. So I could avoid the buses with that ticket then and go via Derby? Hence the reasoning the chap at the station says it was £8.50 return.

You will be able to go via Derby if you can get services via Derby for the whole journey to show up on the Rail Planner. But, unless the Rail Planner is broken, you won't be able to do that because it is not a permitted route for the journey.

I'll put to the test tomorrow at the station, I'll give the chap the details and see what it comes up with.

Thanks for the help, Boc.
