Looking at booking train tickets up for this but prices coming in at £80 for a return.

Anyone got anything cheaper or have i peaked to soon and need to hold off a few more days for prices to come down?

    Cheers Clive. Will keep checking. I think this will rival Mbro as our lowest away numbers of the season.
  • I just hope there are restrictions put in place for tickets. Worried about missing out on this one, being so close to Christmas.

    Heard Valley Gold are treating all their members to 4 tickets each.
  • Do you think they'll give us the whole end and both tiers?

    I'd guess 190 travelling fans. 250 if we're top 6 at the time.
  • I went Bolton away the weekend before Xmas last year and don't think we had more than 150 there. I would Imagine the same this year.

    Blackburn is even less appealing than Bolton IMO. 150 max, 50 extra if we're still around the play offs.

    You can do it for £32 taking the 7,35 from Euston with changes at Stockport and Salford arriving at 11.30. Return Jouney on the 17.31 or 18.31 with only one change at Preston. If you want to take a later outbound train the price rises to £58.60.

    Cheers, might get on that now.
  • Been Blackburn last 2 times we've played there, absolute hole of an area certainly wont be rushing back, plus its a bit of a nightmare with trains and with it being xmas I think ill stay well clear.

    Cannot see many being there, I blame the Saturday before xmas for this!

    Is this 12 weeks away ?
  • For the few that will be going I reckon that there will be not too many outward tickets being released at £16.

    On the last Saturday before xmas there could be a limited amount being released due to demand of families travelling home for the festive period.

    There is also an 8.43 from Euston should you book a London to Preston return, this works out at £29 return before any railcard discounts. Is about £6 return for the leg to Blackburn.

    If anybody has a spare train ticket going I am very interested.

    I have my wife's brasilian cousin over here on holiday who wants to come along, then go back home and start a supporters club over there.
