    Almost all of VRS1 wasn't available to buy this morning. But VRS2 was.

    I expect they will open up VRS1 for more sales. Keep checking and buy as soon as available. Just £20 (plus £2 booking fee) per adult ticket.

    Snagged a couple this morning. Then found out there are train strikes on that day that may impact on getting there. Not sure. Haven’t done enough research. Does anyone know whether it’ll be problem on the day?

    After the Southampton experience - my advice - never use the railways again for anything. Let them go on strike, P off their customers and let them lose money as a consequence. Will always be the coach or car.
    We recently went from Sophia Gardens to London Victoria - fair enough - it took a bit longer but that was fine - and it was a lot cheaper.
    They have been on stroke for years it seems - with most people able to work from home to avoid a commute or use a coach, the strike action is no longer effective.
    Like with all industries - you need to adapt to change or youre dead.

    Strike action has always baffled me, the ones on strike don’t get paid, yet their union leaders still take home their £100,000+, wages !!!!

    As I said, baffling !!!!

    1970's mentality, never goes away in those types of industries. They have been beaten by technology of working from home. Better for everyones pocket, better for the environment to. Lunch time for me most days is going out to local cafe or bakery and spending some money locally.

    Because the union leaders are still working hard fighting for their members and in the rail dispute us as well. Anyone using trains can see that it needs the shake up in conditions that the Union are fighting for while those in power are running it into the ground whilst still charging top dollar.

    On strike on 3rd Feb are Avanti West Coast, East Midlands Railway, West Midlands Trains.
    There is also an ASLEF overtime ban that will affect other services.

    Cheers for that! Really appreciated. I think that clinches Mrs Citizen's argument that we should stay in London for the weekend and arrange our travel from there. Crafty and opportunistic but well played by her!

    Chiltern, Cross Country and Great Western Railway are on strike on Monday the 5th, so don't plan on a train to Cardiff on that day.

    When I saw the title of this thread, my first thoughts were... "Good grief, 35,000 tickets sold"?

    Re: Cardiff c Watford sold out?can't find any availability

    More tickets released this morning.

    Thank you for the offer. Is it extra for the whippet?

    Tickets arrived today. Only ordered them yesterday morning. Fair play. The club doing a good job there. Can't wait. Home games have worn me down.

    Anyway, back to the subject. I bought a couple of Watford tickets over the phone earlier today, and they told me there were 'plenty left'. Not sure what plenty means - could be fifty, could be five hundred.

    Got tickets yesterday. Wasn't going to go because of the train strike as I hadn't realised Watford was on the tube line. Really looking forward to it.
