    Need to sort out tickets and train 
    Train timetables have now been released, there is an hourly direct Thameslink service from London Bridge depart at 31 mins past the hour, St Pancras 46 mins past the hour.
    Return trains Dep at 24 mins past the hour.
    https://www.thameslinkrailway.com/travel-information/plan-your-journey/industrial-action

    LNER trains are running a normal service from Kings Cross, but it will cost a lot more using this route.

    Also Charing Cross & Waterloo East stations will be closed due to engineering works.
    https://www.southeasternrailway.co.uk/

    Quite annoying HOW much more the LNER trains cost, as there are loads of them, and they're much faster.
    I think that may be why they cost more..
    Nearly twice as much is a massive difference, whereas if you're going to Stevenage which is on the route, all trains cost the same, including LNER one.

    Can you not buy 1 ticket to stevenage and then another from Stevenage to Peterborough?

    The Trainsplit app is showing routes via Stevenage with network card coming in at £36.65, with journey times of about 50 mins each way allowing for drinking time pre and post match. Other options are possible but the much cheaper route (around £22.50 rtn using this app) with a change at Stevenage adds about 40 minutes each leg.

    Mrs Algarve and me are attending. Going up Friday and staying overnight with friends, then meeting a couple of the old gang from the Oak at my mate's pub/bottle shop - The Bottle and Board - before the match.

    The trainline app did that automatically for us - £21 each in total for the fast train at 17.31.

    I'll also get some sort of split ticket, as I too have a Network Card, and annoyingly the boundary is just before Peterborough.

    Is it cheaper to get London - Stevenage & Stevenage - Peterborough on LNER?

    3 of us going - we went to the Yard of Ale before the game in January which was full of Posh but were a good laugh and they showed all of the football so will probably go there again

    The latter option sounds better.

    Normally I'd say stop for a drink where you are changing, Stevenage is not the best of places so hope there is a five minute connection!

    You’d have thought the club might do an update on this to encourage more people to come

    3 days ago it was 2234

    Edit: that's our allocation, would be good to sell that out.

    Not too much trouble.  You collect from a little hut just before you get to the statue and close to normal ticket office.
