Just had a look and the only train I could get would be at 21:39 with a change at Wolverhampton. Any later and I'd have to stay over and miss work on Friday. Also it would cost about £140...

Thursday is a fantastic result for me as I couldn't have made that Friday (Golf in Llangollen)

Managed to watch yesterday's game in a pub in Carnarvon (sp) found a few Wires in there Happy Days

I'll be coming over on Thursday. The atmosphere yesterday was tremendous. If it's half as good it will be a superb night.

Gutted on a 1 - 10 shift

Same here golfing the weekend in Abersoch, did the same last year and it was some drive to get to Saints in time, but worth it.

Out of interest which one? My missus is from Caernarfon so I'm often there when a match is on. I had a surreal experience before the 2012 CC Final when I was in the castle museum and a bloke in a Wire shirt walked round the corner with his little lad. We ended up having a chat about our chances while the Welsh looked on in confusion.

I've just had my half day holiday switched from the Friday to the Thursday so I'm happy enough now. I'll give a bit of credit to the club for keeping kids tickets at £5 for this game too because I thought they might put them up to normal price with it being the biggest home game of the season by a long long way. Decent result all round from my point of view really.

It was a Marston's Pub right next to the Castle called the Palace Vaults 3 TV screens with the match on and every time we scored I heard a cheer so explored the pub to chat to a couple of Season Ticket holders from just off Orford Lane and an older guy from Warrington who was espousing the virtues of the pies from Tomlins on Synge Street

The locals didn't mind at all that we were cheering the boys on.

As Wire-in-the-Blood says it's both price ( no off-peak fares on a Thursday to get there in time for the match ) and the fact that there are no late trains to get back on. Even worse for me as nearest station is Milton Keynes and not all London trains stop there. Last time I looked I could get a train at around midnight via Birmingham which gets into MK at 8.15 am next morning!

Well done John, I missed the Hull FC play off game after a testing round at Bull Bay Anglesey and stayed in Wales rather than drive back so in the words of Dropkick Murphy "not a true fan".

I watched the game in Menai and bumped into Eorl Crabtree in a pub in Bangor later that evening he really is a nice guy.

Enjoy your game, I'm at Holyead GC on Saturday so Thursday rather selfishly is best result for yours truly

Now the Wire!!!

Hacked off.
Bl00dy Sky.
Why on earth does it have to be mid week?

As you can gather - it is very unlikely I'll be able to go...... not happy at all.

I booked this weeks ago on an off chance so its great for me.

Fly over Wednesday meet up for a few beers. Lower looking good.

Thursday a few more beers and match.

Friday going to Irwell Works Brewery real ale festival.

Saturday home.

Good stuff.

It wont so you need a uk proxy or a stream. Although the wifi on the cruise possibly wont be fast enough to have streaming.

It all sounds great, I hope you have a few beers when you get home you deserve it ha ha

As an ex-pat, I feel it my patriotic duty to help keep the British beer lake in check.

I'm now going

Assuming you're a Sky subscriber (rather than Virgin), ou can watch on Sky Go. However, licensing issues mean you can only watch in the UK. If overseas, you'll need to use a UK proxy server. I'd recommend Hideman (google it). You download their software, and then select a country you want to 'pretend' you're in (I.e. UK), get yourself onto Sly Go and job's a good un. You get 5 hours free each week; a one-week subscription is 3USD.

I'm on Canada at the min, and watched Leeds game this way. Worked fine, with fare minor streaming issues caused by hotel wifi. Provided your wifi is quick enough, you'll be laughing (unless we lose of course!)

Well, tickets booked for me and me Dad in the South Stand. We're normally over in the North but after years of being depressed at the lack of noise and atmosphere amongst the north standers, and the brilliant feeling at the Magic Weekend, we've decided to give the South stand a go.

Now let's hope the team make it worthwhile!

You bit the bullet then

Well, you can't call yourself a Wire and not go!

With having not gone to the last one, am I allowed to go to this one? Thought I'd better check before spending MY money....

I'll be going to this one, lower angel beforehand then pitch up in the south stand. Usual spot. In work Friday with a fuzzy head.

I've seriously messed up. Taken on some work on Friday AFTER finding out the date of the game. I can still go, but instead of staying over, I'm going to have to drive straight back home. wouldn't mis this one for the world though.

Similar to me, was working Thursday but sacrificed my weekend to have it off but I'm still working Friday, straight up then straight back.

Watch the game with no beer, then in work at 11:30pm for my usual night shift. Hopefully a happy shift!
