Planning the games I will get to this year and wondered what the consensus is - rush out/leave early for the 9.44pm, or wait for the 10.23pm?
I have to get from LLS/Stratford to Belvedere via Woolwich so in theory I can DLR to Woolwich pretty late and connect to a Southeastern but they are every half an hour at that time, whereas the 9.44 might conceivably get me on the last Liz line home. [Post edited 23 Jun 2022 17:02]

Rush out on 90 minutes to get the 21:43 (or 42 or 44), the latter train adds about an hour to the journey back which makes a big difference for me in terms of work the next day.
It might even have a bar on it, although that is highly variable these days with GA. |  |

Makes sense. I just checked and the last Liz line train to Abbey Wood is 11.09 so I should make that from the 9.44 too. Home by 11.40pm as opposed to 1am would make a big difference as you say. | |

It’s highly variable if you get a train at all isn’t it? 
There are only two (league) home mid week games scheduled I see. |  |

Sure they’ll be a postponement or two to change that. | |

Ha, true.
Either Wigan or the evening game before, I managed to ninja the change at Stratford and was back at Camden Road for 23:05. | |

With the extra subs & time wasting unfortunately you're going to have to miss more of the game to get the 21:43. What utter nonsense - I went to many 7:30 kick offs at PR in the past when you knew the final whistle would be blown by 9:15. |  |

I used to wait and get the later trains but the difference is quite big. I now almost always get the 21:44 but that does mean missing the last few minutes.
I say the difference is big - I really struggle to sleep after midweek games, so not sure it really is in terms of getting a good rest. |  | | |

The earlier train hasn't had a bar on it for some time. Annoying. | | | |

I've booked the 9.44 home. Better get my running shoes on. | |

derby is a Friday night, thanks to Sky, and Cambridge will surely be reschedules as a mid week game. |  |

Can't you just take the Elizabeth line to Abbey Wood direct from Liverpool Street and then walk or grab an uber?

Get the 9:44pm. I start making my way down ensuring I’m in eye shot of everything and then run to the station. That extra 30 - 40 minute wait is a bit of a rinser if you’re working the next day as it’s a slow train or at least feels like it, especially if we lose! | | | |

That's what I'm doing, but the last Liz line train is 11.09pm. I can only make that if I get the 9.44 from Ipswich. | |

Not at my current post-Covid-post-Holiday-post-ManicDepressive weight. I might get a cab... | |
