Book the trains early. I book them months in advance, as soon as i know the kick off time, as i know i will have a ticket, and the trains are so cheap. I have a 16-25 railcard and a return to birmingham i booked last week was £11.70 return. Hull return was £17 :lol:

thats not a bad idea, do you have any idea how much a cab to doncaster is? what time does the 20.48 from doncaster get in to london?

i use www.raileasy.co.uk as long as you book at least 7 days in advance you get about 40% if not more off.
