I drove as well as I didn't think the rail service was up to the amount of people travelling today.
No doubt we will hear more about the 19:50 from Peterborough being cancelled due to "passengers causing a disturbance on this train". |  | | |

Just read something about that on Twitter.
Apparently a train from Norwich full of budgies and Newcastle fans arrived at the adjacent platform to where some of our finest were waiting to board / boarding their train.
Police had to use batons / gas etc to break it up. Twitter saying it was Ipswich and Norwich, but then the Newcastle fans joined in to add to the fun. | |

Getting home is a nightmare!! A few town fans tried to get off the train to get to 1 or 2 Norwich fans. Managed to break the train so we all got off the train. Now on the 9.45 which is packed! Right balls up! | | | |

After one of our F.A. Cup games at Shrewsbury (the 0-0 in 1980 I think) our special train pulled in at Peterborough at the same time as the scum train was coming back from them getting thumped at Man C.
A lot of police appeared on the platform in between us all of a sudden. |  | | |

We got to Peterborough station at 5.25 and the 5.34 "football extra train" and the 5.40 were both cancelled, so the 5.50 was absolutely rammed full. Then we get an announcement over train PA that busses were outside the station going to Ipswich. So yes a cockup all round by the wonderful fragmented UK railways and a wise move to travel by car. |  | | |

Not enough capacity on the 09:58 train so they put on a couple of buses which took well over two hours to get there, including 3 stops for a p1ss one of which was at P'bro services just a few minutes from the ground.
A wee bit of bother at PBO station for the 19:50 which was cancelled as a result. Something of a party atmosphere on the follow up train. Though, by George, I am sick of that Toto Nsiala chant now. |  |

Trains were GOOD on Saturday. VERY VERY GOOD.
Being LON ( Staines) based travelled out of Kings Cross on the 1103 and return from posh on the 1810. Both services were operated by the new Azuma LNER trains which have apparently been in operation since May but obviously no need for me to use them during the "close" season.
Comfortable clean and plenty of legroom . Japanese technology (Hitachi ) and a real joy !!
cf Greater (lesser) Angrier bellendio 30 year old rolling stock from Liverpool Street which has to be endured every other week for a home game. (believe this is ex Virgin no ? ) Dreadful.
Was fortunate to avoid all the nonsense @ posh with the Magpies and the Canaries also so + + !!
Have deliberately not mentioned the foot (hoof) ball as with meeting up with old mates at the Drapers Arms and the rather nice Queens Head overshadowed what we have sadly have had to endure in recent times. still a few green shoots visible next to the glass half full that need watering/nurturing.
Ho hum . |  | | |

Got the 07.45 from Oulton Broad. East Midlands strike meant there was no direct connection between Norwich and Peterborough, so changed at Ely onto a packed two-coacher and stood all the way to Posh.
Early enough for a few pints around the city.
17.19 out of Peterborough to Ely. Standing room only again, but connected to the Norwich train OK and was in the pub by quarter to eight. Few too many budgies celebrating there for my liking, but to be expected.
22.40 back to Lowestoft. "Night bus" atmosphere on this one, which is normal for the last one back to the coast.... |  | | |
