Just looking at our remaining away games there and seeing which ones I fancy. Never been to Norwich and wondering the best way of travel to get there from up here, ie trains etc. Obviously there is a bus option, but worked down there in the past and it was a twat of a drive. Anyone travelled by train before? Same day or overnighter?

@Norwich Red n White What's your normal means of getting up for a match mate?

Seem to remember him saying he drives up? Unless we have more than one based in Norwich/Norfolk. Come to think of it I'm sure we have.

Might do with the stopover. Plenty of accommodation so assuming it's not switched to Monday you could make a Saturday/Sunday of it. Plenty of time to decide. Early Saturday train to avoid the A17/A47 traffic.

You aware there's a Holiday Inn at the ground now?

Never been mate. Looks like a stoppy over job.
 
In all seriousness, fly to Amsterdam, then fly to Norwich. It'll take a couple of hours. It'll probably be cheaper than the train. This is not at all serious.

Trains with a rail card just over £28 apiece. Obviously I've just gone ahead 11 weeks. So just over £101 for an overnighter.

I've just had a quick look and its over 100 quid return same day. Haven't had a proper scout about, but looked on train line. No surprise the 3 away grounds I haven't been to, Norwich, Southampton and Swansea. The 3 biggest Fuck ons and expense to get to.

Quickest way to Norwich is Ferry over to Norway, then catch a boat to Lowestoft, then A146 to Norwich.

Now you've done it :rolleyes:

Over the last 40 years, following the Lads, I've done some truly insane things with no encouragement ....

.... with the slightest encouragement I'm capable of anything, watch this space ;)

Don't forget to book each leg as single trips to get the best price. Go on virgin site. You may find a railcard saves 30% - handy if you plan a few trips.
 
Went in 1990 on the supporters bus. A nightmare journey on bus. Train is by far the best way imo

Worked there in the past and it was a nightmare in the van. Going on the bus, think I'd rather not bother tbh. Checked the route and it can be done in a day via Peterborough, but will be expensive.

Just remembered that - a right mare coming back. Not sure which way to do it this time as have probably done coach a dozen times over the years. Car twice with overnight stay. I don't mind coach trips as go regularly to all the lomg-hauls Southampton, Swansea, etc. Will decide nearer time ....

Advanced tickets won't be out yet, check 12 weeks before the match and it'll be cheaper.
