Good to hear a lot are coming over, both teams got a few new Aussies and itd be good to show them what a real big game atmosphere is like, nrl stadiums seem quiet as a mouse until someone scores

4 of us are in the car, dear do this....2 new front tyres bought just for my piece of mind travelling on the motorway......

It's to be hoped your players show a bit more commitment than you Mr Armchair

Just been for tickets at 11am 3 of us on coach 10 leaving at 16-30.

Despite the fact that it may not necessarily have been the refusal of free coach travel that prompted the reaction from "the woman in the shop", I have been persuaded by you to let the train take the strain from Manchester to Headingly. Although as it's a Sky game I'm not totally convinced that the return gives much margin for error.

Sorry Shaz,

I wish I was wrong

12 coaches in total.

And maybe a roof on the visitors stand would make the experience more inviting.

Very wise better safe than sorry have a safe journey.

There's always been enough time to do the journey I posted about whenever I've been before, although if you just need to get back to Piccadilly and don't need a connection from there, I think there's one at about 11.30pm-ish anyway. We need the earlier one or we miss the train to Heald Green.

It's the local train not the Leeds Piccadilly that I was concerned about don't need a connection from town as my car will be parked near Oxford Rd. Having said that if the local Headingly train causes a problem we could always get a cab to Leeds

You could walk from Headingley to Leeds and make the last train! I've never missed the 10.15 from Burley Park before anyway.



The only close call was after the 2006 play off game when Briers won it at the end. The kick off had been delayed and obviously the match went down to the wire so I couldn't leave early. I did have to skip the celebrations and run to the station, but I still made it.
