    Well done Offy.

    When you see the outlay wrote down like that, it is absolutely bonkers.

    Have taken the plunge and just bought 3 match tickets and three train tickets for an eye-watering 370 sheets.

    Add in booze/cab/"entertainment" money and we are looking at something a round grand I reckon, between the three of us.

    Must need my bumps felt.

    COME ON YOU REDS!!!

    Is that for 3 adults or are you paying for a child too?

    At least you'll have a nice relaxing return journey almost the length of the country, you'd only get two tickets at the Emirates for that outlay if you were a Chelsea fan on 21st April! I shall be driving Friday night and stopping off half way up to see my grandson and again Saturday night before coming home on Sunday.

    If you have an under 16 travelling with you , you could get the same tickets on a friends and family rail card .It would be much cheaper.

    That's why my daughter has decided she wants to spend Saturday afternoon in Carlisle . . .

    The travel fairies will transport me in a pink soft fluffy cloud from Lee to Carlisle, and then back again, all the while offering me Champagne and Lindor chocolate. leave at 1pm home by 6, and cos I booked in time it's only costing me £31 so there!
    Damn, I thought I managed the cheapest ticket!
    Why, how much was yours?

    You mean you don't know?!!!

    Blimey, surely you could have bought your own train for that in '53.

    Not able to make game saturday due to work commitments but just had a look and for a return from grimsby - carlisle it is coming out at just under £85, thats more than what i am going to be paying for a return from grimsby to kings cross which is £82.

    Fair play to everyone travelling upto the game on Friday/Saturday hopefully the massive loose and we win and it will be a perfect day out for all
