£60 return at the moment from Piccadilly. What are peoples other travelling options to maybe make that a bit cheaper?
The coaches from the club will probably be the cheapest option but I don't fancy spending that long on a coach.

Would that be the same mainline service that stops at Stoke on the way down!? Bugger that.

Last time they put on a couple of none stop specials from Bolton that were v popular, I'm hoping they do that again!?

Do you think there will be a little memorial for this, considering one of our previous FA Cup meetings with Stoke...

Just said on SSN we will get 32,000 allocation. Seems a tad low for a semi final to me.
