Why when coaches cost £8 leave at one for a five a clock KO, anyone would want to on a train except Frank B

Because I want to.

.........Have a reet good session on th'ale trail

I'll finish off your sentence for ya matey!!

Free travel? Stop at Dewsbury station and Huddersfield station real ale pubs on the way.

I think lots of folk prefer travelling by rail or tram quite honestly.

Doubt we will ever have a railway station in Leigh but if tram lines now go to Oldham Rochdale Eccles etc why can't Leigh have a tram line ?

Few of us going on the train and stopping at a couple of places en route. Although I've got to get back from Copenhagen Airport first.

We were going to stop at Dewsbury and Huddersfield, but rumours are the ale trail is hammered and full of d***heads.

they've stopped selling lager this year to try and put the hen parties and stag do's - people going for a leak in your garden etc

Would have thought Dewsbury and Huddersfield will be fine though as you're town centres - it's more the Marsden, Slathwaite type stops.

what time are you due in Huds? I might join you if that's ok?

That's why we're doing the Victoria-Halifax line and stopping at Todmorden, Sowerby Bridge etc.

I just enjoy travelling by rail to games and don't particularly like coaches. There could be a bus leaving from my front drive and I would probably still get the train.

Sounds like a good plan that Matt, we might see you on route for a jar or 8.

Good man, though I'm not sure how much drinking I'll be doing after being in a nightclub in Malmö at 5am this morning!

Surprised at you Matt. Would have been cheaper to book a hotel room.

Stayed at the Park Inn, believe it or not. No framed pictures of the Leigh team though which was disappointing.

Trains ?Id sooner go on our Dogs back .
