    Can get £6 Single there and £6 single back from Paddington.

    Just been on the Oxford site, the ground is four miles from the train station.

    I can't take Oxford seriously when their ground only has 3 sides

    And it's still better than the Manor Ground, rest assured.

    I booked a 6:01 train back. From anyone who's been before, do you think that will be enough time?

    It took me about 15mins and cost £16-£20 for a cab about 20mins before kick off in the cup.

    Will be tight but provided you get to the bus stop quickly and beat the traffic coming out of the leisure centre thing should just make it, either that or cab it to the ground, pre book, get a mobile and get them to pick you up on the approach road, it is very out of town. 10 times better than the Manor Ground though, the ultimate Subbuteo stadium!

    But do not worry, we'll be 3-0 down after 75 minutes so you'll be able to leave early enough so it will not be a struggle.

    Bit optimistic Elfsborg! Thanks for reminding me of getting stuffed 5-0 there circa 1984...

    The last time I saw Charlton play at a 3 sided ground, was when we won at Bournemouth during our promotion season

    Bournemouth eh, I wonder what happened to them...

    I went to the FA Cup replay in 2014. We were utter garbage, other than that French bloke we used to have up front . I recommend the Chinese buffet in the complex opposite

    I might drive to this one. 2,000 free car parking spaces according to their website and an overflow car park as well.

    Great Western Trains or Train Line site.

    Go on it quickly as there is a big rush for tickets due to us taking 2000 everywhere next season.

    Great Western add £3 fee if you book online on Friday mornings though.

    I just went through East midland as I get small % back from them and they don't charge a booking fee, we have a two together card so it was only £7.80 and booked the 19:30 back so we can watch most if not all of the Arsenal Chelsea game. Cheers for advise lads.

    This is the support you get if trips are organised and the club wants to interact with the fans.

    There's also a pretty decent 24-hour bus service between Oxford and London Victoria - £18 for a return ticket

    Is 24 hours the time the coach takes to get to and from Oxford?

    Blackbird Leys is pretty much the drop off.

    This should be favourite for the fans travelling by train.

    The return fare states £3.50
