I have a train reservation for the Orient game and will be meeting a fellow Town fan mate in the bar at Kings Cross about 11am for a couple of swift ones before heading off to Orient.Anyone else getting into Kings Cross about that time is welcome to join us and maybe vocally contribute to a little sing song.TTID.

How much you all got your trains for?
I'm not paying through the nose to get down to LDN. Cheapest so far is return from Sheff - St Pancras for £33. Anybody beat that?

Not going to the game but the Orient Supporters Club is in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide this year.
Could be worth a visit.

That's why I couldn't find any cheaper than that then, the YP railcard.

Do you have the patience to get the tickets in 4 separate transactions and fill a short form out online 4 times?

Oh c*ck, never mind, I've just realised it'd actually cost more than £25. My bad.
The absolute cheapest option around is Megabus. £18 return, although the journey times to and from London are 4h45 and 5h40 respectively. (Bus to East Midlands Parkway, Train to St Pancras, then Bus from Victoria to Hudds)
Or you can go on the coach via National Express from Leeds for £17 return (4h45 and 5h55 there from and to Hudds including train from Hudds to Leeds for £3 return)
