The Coach Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 Live in London myself and not even going. If it was a Saturday game I may of considered it. Well done to those who have bought tickets and plan on going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pongo88 Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 It’s not an attractive option to go to Ipswich on a Wednesday evening, but the Sky ref button option is the kiss of death. There are pros and cons with TV money and the red button is an obvious example. Pros = it’s good for people who would never have attended anyway. Cons = it reduces the incentive to go for people who might have attended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exAtyeoMax Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 I completely forgot about it to be honest. I'll be listening to the commentary instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olé Posted November 22, 2018 Report Share Posted November 22, 2018 Yes and when I got train tickets they were only about £20 return, with two services to choose back after the game, good value for a midweek game, plus I work not too far from Liverpool Street so pretty easy to combine with a proper days work. Quite frankly Ipswich is the one trip that's probably better midweek, at weekends they always close the bloody train lines out to East Anglia and you end up on god forsaken rail replacement buses - three of the last six or seven times as I recall.

Aren't you lucky! I'm off to see Wales v South Africa on Saturday. Train from Highbridge to TM, then a bus to Parkway for another train to Cardiff. Reason for the bus ride. Track from Temple Meads to Filton being made four track instead of two. I told Beeching in 1967 that they would regret changing it from four track to two track but he wouldn't listen to me. Give em a cheer from me at Ipswich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PooPants Posted November 22, 2018 Report Share Posted November 22, 2018 I'm just up the road from Liverpool Street so will most likely head up for this one. Do they do pay on the day though? I'm skint until payday next Wednesday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hampshire Red Posted November 22, 2018 Report Share Posted November 22, 2018 Yes, maybe by car but probably on the train.@Ole what times are you planning on and do you fancy Black Cat pub or the one directly opposite the station? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the 4pm, would be rude not to pop into the Station Pub, depending on the weather Isaac's on the marina is always pleasant enough too. Can't really go wrong with Ipswich fans anywhere. Continuing my own rant about rail replacement buses, just had flashbacks of the game at Ipswich two seasons ago which was the evening before New Years Eve, and the only route was to Stansted Airport, followed by a replacement coach from the airport carpark to some other non-descript station. And I defy anyone to feel anything but shame after losing at Ipswich, then having to file off a night coach at the airport surrounded by holiday makers, carrying nothing but a couple of cans.

Never to the dark side Posted November 22, 2018 Report Share Posted November 22, 2018 Ole That was the Friday night game. I departed on the Saturday morning. What I should have done is travelled by train to Cambridge and straight into Kings Cross by train. Hope to see you Wednesday, although I ain't sure where I am staying on Wednesday night yet.
