Eastleigh away tickets on sale

[Tommy2holes]

Depends if you have a Railcard or not. If you don't, then it is rather pricey.

They don't do a single person railcard, unless you are disabled, retired, young or travelling with a partner

You can get a network rail card about £30 a year and get third of fares well worth it

You can get a network rail card. My dad has one. Exactly the same perks.

I think a few drank in the airport last season as there aren't many pubs available.

Thanks, easy to get a taxi to the ground from there?

Last time we got off at Eastleigh. I went in a pub called the Spitfire in the High Street. We cabbed from there but you could easily hop back on the train.

 

[rigsby]

Yeah but it's another £20 to get to Waterloo

A group saver from Southend and all London zones is about £13

I'm still laughing at "Eastleigh are Massive! Everywhere we go."

See you there folks!

Eastleigh town centre is not dissimilar to Baz Vegas

Or £10 if you use Tesco club card points

About half our away games this year are in the area it covers: Aldershot, Dorking, Daggers, Maidenhead, Maidstone, Eastleigh, Barnet, Boreham Wood, Bromley, Woking, Wealdstone and for the rest it’ll give you a discount for the leg up to London.

I buy an cheap disabled rail ticket, even I don’t have an disabled railcard, I been doing it for 15 years, it’s cheaper!

I don't use mine much but still saves me fair bit cash.I can get next one for a tenner as my sister will have her season ticket on train again

I love travelling by train but the cost these days are astronomical

I was able to get return flights to Mallorca for me and the other half for £110 and yet to go to Ipswich for pre season by train would have cost £124.

It's completely madness

Got to pay for Mick Lynch’s salary somehow!

And there was me thinking the Rail workers in the RMT paid for it. You learn something new every day.

Which is paid for by subscriptions from members, who are paid salaries by the RMT which in turn is paid for by ridiculous rail fares. Which isn't enough to pay for the rail service, so is propped up by huge government subsidies paid for by your taxes.

Anyway, back on topic, I have 2 tickets for Eastleigh and will be driving which will cost me roughly £25 for the 150 mile round trip, or I could pay £75 for 2 train tickets?

Really. Whenever I look I can't see that.

I reckon it to be about £25 to 30 diesel from prittlewell.

Cheaper than the train for sure but obviously spoils the beer time.
