I've flew down and back up the same night all bar one game(Sheff Weds from memory) when I stayed at Heathrow and got a flight back up in the morning with my lad.
Looked at flights the other day and they've roughly trebled in price(£250-£300 return) but that was with the intention of going back the same day and I hadn't really factored in a Hotel....I'll play it by ear but the longer it drags on the more it'll cost me and I might pass.
I'm also crippled with sciatica at the moment which tells us all we ain't spring chickens anymore
