Quote jonny the leyther="jonny the leyther"Why don't the RFL contact Virgin Trains and say to them that they will advertise Virgin for free at the game if they can promote the 3 month advanced ticket that will come out 3 months before the game? Then do one more week of £10 tickets along with promoting that RL fans can get from up north to London for around £35 return.
Virgin would be happy as pretty much all trains are empty early on saturdays anyway.'"
The cheap 3 month advance returns don't seem to always appear for weekend travel. We struggled to get anything reasonable to go to Manchester for the Grand Final. Its cheaper and easier for us to buy group save tickets, which we can buy on the morning of travel - 4 travel for the price of 2. You can travel on any offpeak train then too, rather than being restricted. South Eastern and Southern do this, don't know about Northern operators.
