Dec 5th and Dec 6th Grand Central won't be allowing alcohol on the trains, Mackems are at Fulham that weekend, so obviously that's the reason. I've never clicked on their website for a while - have they ever done this at all for any Pools away games to the capital? I can't imagine so, like.

we havent had a london game since they introduced the " football special " i.e the 7 o clock train out of kings cross.

ive used this service a few times already, it was pretty full midweek, and absolutely rammed on a weekend.

a train that leaves london at 10 past 7 at night, and gets into the town at half 10 is a brilliant idea, and im glad passenger numbers are increasing rapidly. all they need to do now is introduce a discount for booking in advance.

dont think i would want to be on a train full of drunk sunderland fans tho.

Having spent a journey back from Sunderland with a bunch of Sunderland fans I can understand this decision. They were a pack of animals.

They'd been at Chelsea, think we'd been to Orient.

I hope it was a pigeon and it crapped on your head or anwhere else for that matter. There are bigger birds like. Maybe a wodge of goose crap would be better. How about Emu doodoo. How big is an Ostrich turd.

You're right PJ, we were in the same pub!

as for 'its the same for Newcastle fans'. It wasn't the volume of fans on the train it was the fact that 90% of them were behaving like animals.
