Peterborough Away

[saffrey]

I know it's a while away, but it seems this is gonna be my next Bees game, unless I'm back "hyem" for a weekend between now and March. This should be a great game (memories of 92, Folan in 98 etc.) and it's near London for enough Bees to make the trip, and also a do-able trip for myself. (Okay, so I get back at 2am, but it is STILL possible.)

My provisional arrival time is at 5.38pm (nice and early to avoid the peak hour chaos which will probably cause GNER to grind to a halt

)

Bees, it's over to you...

Will hopefully see you there mate! What about Wigan and Rotherham?

Not too bad for a Tuesday night game. Should be a few Bees there, nice terrace with brilliant accoustics. Went in pub near station last year which was good.
I'm sure this will be sorted nearer the time.

Cheap Day Return £15.60, but can only be used on the WAGN (local) trains from KX, and returning form P'boro at 22.20.

Otherwise "Super Advance Return" £20, must be bought before 6pm the previous day, and must specify train times.

See http://www.thetrainline.com


The only other flexible ticket is the Standard open return for £45! That's more expensive than coming down from bloody Newcastle (albeit on an Apex ticket).

I can see this game having a low Bees crowd.

It's a rather long detour to go via Newcastle
