<spacey>I'm not 100% sure. I'd think they'd leave right up until after kick off, but as I don't know they might not.</spacey>

You expect a train to run on time on a Sunday... Good Luck. Your question should also ask how to get to the game for the second half.

Especially if there's more than one of you, it'll cost around the same or less than the bus.

A few seasons ago we left the pub very late for a midweek game and tried to get a bus at 7.40. It was only because a few others did the same that we managed to persuae Blakey to get one more to head to the stadium even though it was past the last time.

So basically if it's still the same then 1.10 is probably about your cutoff

All trains that I catch on Sundays (did it for the Arsenal match) were fine. Although there would only be slight delays because it was from Thatcham (20 minutes or so journey to Reading). Although for a 1 30 kick off, 1 10 is leaving it a bit late isn't it?

I do have one experience of getting a train from the NW to an evening game, that should have got in at 6:30. It was 15 mins late leaving Brum New Street and got stuck behind a local stopper service on the line to Oxford. Result was that I arrived at 7:40, no buses and got a cab.
