Looking at £90 return at the moment. Anybody seen a better deal?

 

[Deanos196]

Looking too London to Leeds,Leeds to Burnley best route seems a bit long winded?

If ever has a fixture entitled travel disaster it’s this one.

I’ve done that route. Scenic, but slow (2? hours) - beware snow!

Is the game confirmed for Saturday ko?

 

[N5022N122]

yes I believe so.

 

[unBEEliveable]

£80 odd quid and a 5 hour journey on the trains - think I might be driving for this one!

 

[Infatuated Bees Alter Ego]

Any Cricket likely to be on, next door ?

 

[Isleworth_Bee]

These train fares take the p**s

Booked my parking already… it feels like it’s a European Tour with over 4h driving, without calculated stops, each way for me, further for my son to our RDV.

Parking is one thing Burnley has plenty of. Last time it was 60p all day in the town shopping centre car park!

Is this a trick question ?

No unfortunately its the train that is a 10 hour round trip and 80 quid - driving is about 3 and a quarter hours... its one of those tricky ones to decide what to do...

I’ve booked Masonic Hall parking .. it was £10 but it’s supposedly easier to get back to the motorway. Last time it took ages from where we parked to get out of Burnley.

Ah not a problem for me as I head away from the motorway to get back to NW Leeds!

If the town is anything like my last visit, sit on the platform and think yourself lucky you live somewhere else

Don't go looking for the rabbit

 

[horshambees]

Don't go looking for the rabbit

Is that the white one ?

 

[brentford born & bred]

Unemployment and misery are another two things.

When we lost up there in our 1st season in the Premier League they sung to us "Burnley is a sh*th*le you might as well go home", how f*cking true. Stayed the weekend, never again!

Supposedly a ghost ! And yes, I think so.

Hope you've practiced your funny handshakes.

 

[unBEEliveable]

While I am figuring out whether to drive or train it - pedant alert - isn't this thread in the wrong forum?

I drove 21/22 and it was a horrible drive but easy to find parking in the church pretty much opposite. (On the day too)
We stayed over in Chorley, which has plenty of good pubs etc and only 25 minutes from Burnley.

Yeah I drove for that one too and drove back the same day - long day especially after the performance in that game ?‍

Yep, good away end though! Aside from the performance, good away day IMO.

 

[N5022N122]

[Simon W]

Last time there the Burnley Cricket Club kitchen were so busy serving lunches they forgot to charge me for ours .. sadly that was the only result we got that day ??‍

 

[Voice from the Braemar]

Interesting.

I was thinking Grace Slik and White Rabbit.
The lyrics to that song remind me of some people i see wandering aimlessly around Rochdale,Oldham,Nelson.
Smack my bitch up is definitely Port Glasgow.

 

[Roman Bee]

Will probably go for a very cheap pint in the Sam smiths pub then get back on the train. But I am considering a weekend in Rochdale if I really need to offload the missus one day. Ty for all advice.

Looked at train fares from London to Burnley for me and my 9 year old son. Turns out that it is actually cheaper to fly!! From Heathrow! With KLM! Via Amsterdam! To Leeds/Bradford International! That's how messed up trains fares are...

 

[Jay Bee]

Travelling on the train.... up via Leeds and back via Manchester, about £90 altogether, no railcard.

19:15 from Manchester to London was about £41 via split ticketing.
Wanted to go back via Manchester so it's possible the Leeds route was a bit cheaper.

Preston is yet another option but connections not great going up (5 mins to change for the hourly connection) and quite expensive coming home.
