Northern trains

Not to mention extra time and penalties if they happen. We’ve abandoned the train home altogether. The 8pm kick off is unnecessary it could’ve easily been 7:45 and that extra 15 minutes is very valuable in the event of people making the last train.
I don’t get the 8pm kick off time at all! Same with the away leg!


Zero chance of making the last train unless you leave the match early IMO.

Every televised midweek match seems to get the 8pm slot over 7:45. Not sure why it matters though and 7:45 couldn’t be televised as well.
 
We’re planning on a taxi / small minibus back but with the driver keeping tabs on the score as to when to set off. Isn’t going to be cheap because it’s only one way and they’re using the fuel both ways but nothing else we can do. When I get final numbers I’ll let you know if we’ve room for any more mate.
It's not the only way. My brother and a mate have booked a National Express bus to the Boro, departing after 23.30 😉.
 
I did the same back from Wroclaw Stadium on Saturday, 2 min walk from the stadium to tram stop and then there's 20 trams ready to ship you back to the centre.
My mate is living / working in Wroclaw. Says it’s great.
Train service here is a scandal. I am about to book for London. 9 weeks in advance and still looking at £300 each 1st class.
Fly and Paddington Express only option as ain’t paying that.
