[Glenisterbee]

Grand Central are almost always cheaper traveling up there

In the q and a just now seems like there is going to be some kind of offer on this. The way I took it was the tickets will be kind of free as you'll get credited back on your account

So a free gamble at buying 50 taps?

Went last year from Gloucester with a Sunderland season ticket holder. It's an absolute mission. 6:30am start and 11pm finish for a 3pm game. It's too far

I wouldn't start from there if I were you.

Mention by JV last night of a possible ticket credit for those that actually attend the game. Enough for a cup of coffee, I guess, to keep you awake.

Likely to be the full cost of the ticket to buy another one in the future

Great idea

stayed there for last season’s early away - it’s quite decent. And the walk is best along the sea wall but not bad

 

[JANORAK]

If appropriate, this should always be the opening response to being asked for directions…

 

[New Old Bee]

I wouldn't start from there if I were you.

Very much the response I've had from the owners of the Blackpool hotel I've used over the years when I tell them I am going to the match at Carlisle, Middlesbrough, any in Gtr. Manc./ Lancashire, Liverpool, Leeds, Huddersfield, Wolverhampton, etc....

Fair enough. Well it sounds like we shouldn't have too long to wait anyway.

Just a heads up - we had booked the hilton garden - by the ground - originally a very steep £160 per night with free cancellation. Now you can get it for £114 (pay up front). Have of course cancelled and rebooked. Looks a nice place.

Doing both northern games so a bit of luxury at the end will be nice!

 

[Banana]

Anyone going with the team?

 

[Oldboy TW8 0AW]

COYB's!
As always those who are travelling, safe travels.
I know someone who has taken already an early flight from LHR this morning!
