⚽⚽ CHEAP TRAINS - RELEASE DATE.... ⚽⚽

For all our League AWAY games, the dates below are when rail operators "normally" release their cheap tickets... this is around 12 weeks before the actual date of travel.

When heading to away games, try travelling in 2 or more for good savings on top of the cheap tickets you can pickup as well.

The "Two Together" card (amongst other options) can save you 1/3 on fares, so you can even see a profit after making your 2nd trip ... The F&F (Friends and Family) Railcard is also worth a look for those travelling with at least 1 child under 15 at all times. (Valid for 4 adults - 1 must be the named card holder, and upto 4 kids under 15)

Nice one, cheers.

Been booking August and September's matches (home and away) these past few days and found a few great bargins.

Just waiting on the Accrington League Cup (still call it that ) date to be confirmed, then I can book that too and accommodation with it
 
Great info. 1 final saving:

Register with grand central n a week after each journey they mail you a 20% off voucher for your next one.

very handy info really mate... always happy to help if it means folk get the best deal

Of course, I've left of Wembley as we wont need to go there this year ;)

Shudder!

Bearing in mind peeps that Sky only have to give about 6 weeks notice to switch games for telly. Also keep an eye out for possible postponements due to international call ups.
Booking travel for Saturday 3pm only to find out match is 8pm Friday can be a costly business .
 
from another page...

Games for 7th-28th September must be announced by 26th July
Games for 2nd October-9th November by 30th August
Games for 16th November-7th December by 4th October
Games for 11th December-11th January by 1st November.
 
Some train companies are more quicker than others in publishing ticket release dates..We booked tickets (on Friday) via the Cross-Country website for Accrington away Sept 14th..£19:45p return each..with a railcard....Had looked at the LNER site but advance tickets still not available for that date..so it's always worth shopping around..

LNER put theirs live at 10am on the dot, for info.

Another railcard worth looking at if not eligible for others is the Network Railcard - if you do a journey between two stations in the Network map then you get a third off for both you and up to three others travelling with you. Can make it worthwhile off one Greater London/SE game potentially if there's four of you.
