I'm driving from Halifax so no luck, sorry bud.

Wouldn't fancy National Express though sounds a nightmare. I once got it to Edinburgh from Leeds..... Never again :rolleyes:

Hope you get a lift though :agree:

£29 each way = £58 not bad from manchester.

How much would it cost you to get to Manchester from Liverpool? How far?

I'll get my Travel Agency fee later. :greengrin

I was at the Everton v Newcastle game on Sunday with a bunch of my Evertonian mates. A couple of them are big Hibs fans and were talking about coming up for the final (assuming I can source them tickets).

Nobody checks your ticket between Wigan and Preston - you'd be amazed how much you'd save having a Liverpool-Wigan and Preston-Edinburgh tickets.

I already did that for him as he was at work, only available if the ticket says refundable and within 72hrs, that's what he gets for booking on a whim, jumped in with 2 feet without looking at other options. :greengrin


Only thing is it'll mean I have to put up with him all friday afternoon. :greengrin
