For travel between Doncaster/Barnsley purchase a 1 Day SYConnect+ ticket £8.20.This ticket is also valid on buses.
Advance Train Ticket details have not yet been released for trains from St Pancras via Sheffield,but these will probably be a little dearer.

Due to Northern rail strike action arrival/departure times in/out of Barnsley are liable to alteration,i will update this thread when Strike emergency timetables are published.
It's not enough that they badly inconvenience people, they can't even allow us to plan alternatives. I feel sorry for those affected every weekend.

There is no reason to think it will be any different for the following Saturday.I will post the emergency timetable for the matchday when they are published & also alternative transport options.
I don’t think I’ll be bothered to be honest. London-Sheffield trains are a minimum of £58 now.
