Title: Welling
Post by: Mrs Warbouys on March 01, 2015, 11:38:28 AM: One point from ten games, when was the last time we won on live television?

Post by: Paul Cain's Chip Pan on March 01, 2015, 12:23:37 PM: I can't think of one more recently than our win at Telford in 1995. We are more than capable of getting a result there if we're on our game.

I watched an interview he gave last night after the defeat at Nuneaton, and he basically slags off the fans. Hopefully the board there don't get rid before we go there on Sunday.

Not on Sunday according to National Rail website - 0820 Piccadilly gets you to Welling Station 1246 (about three-quarters of a mile from the ground); 0827 Piccadilly (changing at Crewe) gets you there 1316; 0920 gets you there 1346.

RockyRobin, this is one for you - I expect a detailed timetable soon.

Post by: ManagementGuru on March 02, 2015, 05:20:55 PM: I am certain that 1102 into Euston allows more than enough time to get the 1139 from Victoria to Welling (arrives 1216).

The Victoria Line is the fastest and most reliable of all underground lines and Euston to Victoria is no more than 15-20 minutes

The 0820 from Piccadilly is therefore fine

Post by: hsmith1 on March 02, 2015, 07:11:22 PM: Trains on sundays can be very hit and miss, due to engineering works, you would need to get in touch with the national rail helpline or piccadilly to see if there are any works that will effect the journey

Euston to Victoria is 7-8 minutes max.
