I've just rechecked on thetrainline.com and the rail planner app on my phone (the app picked the chaos on the Waterloo->Twickenham line for the Hudds match a week before) and it looks like the 11:25->12:06 and 12:28->13:12 are still running. I'll re-check on Sunday morning though & fingers crossed it'll still be OK. |

You're telling me - my annual rail season ticket went up by a lot to subsidise the high speed trains. We all think it is a conspiracy theory to force people to use them to commute to London. Very good service if you want to go to London at weekend but for daily work commute puts time on my journey. Has anybody you are travelling with got a railcard to get a discount?

Interesting pricing though. My station to KingsX = £6.60 and then StPancras to Gillingham = £13.55 which comes to £20.15. But my station to Gillingham = £21.90 so cheaper to buy the 2 separate returns than 1 direct ticket! Stupid how they work out the fares. |

I've often found that separate train tickets can work out a lot cheaper than direct ones! Dunno which genius thought up the system but that seems to be the way it is!

This......from the coach who does not like to make excuses......pre-empting another loss I suspect.
London Broncos coach Rob Powell says playing games away from the Twickenham Stoop erodes their home advantage.
The Super League side played at Leyton Orient's Brisbane Road earlier this month and face Hull FC at Gillingham's Priestfield Stadium on Sunday.
He told BBC London 94.9: "It's an away day. It's good we take the game to new places but we have to travel the morning of the game.
"It takes away a bit of our advantage from a performance perspective."
He added: "It's good we showcase ourselves in Kent, where there are good things going on with the Medway Dragons, but it is another away day."
Heavens knows the biggest disadvantage we have is him.

He doesn't do himself any favours does he, if we had fortress Stoop with outstanding performances there he could have a small point, but as it is? deary me.

I know we all like to slag him off (rightly so btw) but there's nothing wrong with that quote.
We've won 2 games this season, both were at home, being at home does give us an advantage.

So does the fact that on those 2 occasions the opposition were ****, anyone playing that badly we would have been beaten anywhere! |
