Are the EFL just being deliberately awkward here?

How are people travelling from anywhere in the U.K or anywhere else supposed to organise their trip with no knowledge of kick off times?It's nothing short of a total nonsense!!!
It’s almost like they couldn’t give a **** about fans that attend games…
 
So...
If it was 3.00 ko and went to penalties what do we reckon is a realistic time for a train back
 
Half the trains only have first class available now, I might go down Friday afternoon, but even then it £230.
Z hotel Shoreditch you will get for about £90 per night Friday/Saturday, I have just looked. Cheese and Wine is free in there on weekday afternoons and then I will buy you a pint in the Brittania around the corner. Still cheaper than Saturday first class!! You know it makes sense :emoticon-0102-bigsm

Extra time and pens would take us to just before 6pm. An hour back to the station in the queue thing - 7pm.

8pm probably the earliest safe time.

I dont think anyone is expecting a kick off earlier than 3pm mate. There will be people not willing to book without knowing but I would just play it safe and get the earliest train and the latest train if I really had to do it in one day.

Thankfully I had the forsight to book my hotel earlier this year when many were still doubting us :emoticon-0102-bigsm
Our daughter booked our apartment on January 24th, no doubt in my mind at any time that we're the real deal.

30th December for me (I have just had a mild panic as couldnt find the email and had no idea I was optimistaic that long ago). Must have been drunk in that weird period between Christmas and New Year!

I did mine pre season, optimistic for sure, but I used points and the rate I got was extremely good and can cancel upto the day before so win win...

Checked just now and it's quadruple the amount I used.

Z Hotel is Shoreditch is cheaper than I paid, because nobhead over here put down adult and child instead of just a room for myself. Its the same room sharing a double bed, they just charge more when you say more people are in there. Must have been leathered.

If I go and get stuck in London,I'll take you up on that and if the offer of B n B,(that's bath and blanket,I'll sleep anywhere),is still on....I might even buy you a pint back :emoticon-0102-bigsm

The central ones are always more and sell faster but Shoreditch (right outside Old Street station) is always lowest cost and its a dream to get to. Two stops from Kings cross or £14 in a black cab. I use it most trips now unless I am going to be Richmond way for the whole trip then I will stay there. You can become a member for nothing too and you get 10% off.

Always the booze's fault! What's Z like, I've never tried one. I use Hilton ( or any of the brands under their umbrella ) for all my work travels, so build up a hell of a lot of points and just use them for things like this and holidays
