Pretty sure it's just avanti on that particular line. There have been trains running on strike days before on that line but could always go up to Leeds and across as that's LNER.
Bus or fly if not.

Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) discuss United's fantastic win away against Athletic Club in the semi-final of the Europa League.
They also pick out the positives of United's 4-3 loss away at Brentford, and Nik reviews a day out at Old Trafford watching Manchester United Women qualify for the Champions League.

You might get a final ticket off a mate or relative for £300 but on resale sites you are going to be looking at nearer a grand, makes it worse being a derby. On the other hand looking at the City end criteria, if you are a member and been on a bus journey where you go passed the Emptyhad you are guaranteed a ticket, and you get a free inflatable banana to take into the ground !!
The strikes
Or hire a car.
I think most train companies are on strike on the 12th and 13th and as mentioned some services may run but it’s not a usually full timetable and might be for limited hours.
Anyone having problems applying for final? I’m clicking apply and then it’s coming up error unable to find price selection
Applications aren’t open until tomorrow, that’s probably why
We hired a 7 seater for the semi, with fuel etc it came to about £35 a head.
For the final we have hired a 9 seater and that should work out at roughly the same.
Sorted done it
have one sorted for £400 so that takes sting out of it
Tickets seem a bit steep. £145 for Cat 1. £115 for both Cat 2 and the atmosphere section.
absolute joke those prices , £70 section is what Iv gone for
Anyone driving back London way after Brighton away?
Need to be there for the weekend and trains are such an arse post match. DM if anyone can help, cheers!

I was fairly far back for the Brighton game and was constantly being told to sit down by the guys behind me. I decided not to bother with that rubbish again, so went for the atmosphere section.
I’ve gone for the Cat 2 option, but surprised at the 30,500 tickets, I was expecting a lot less. Quite confident of getting them now
Yh my bad, thought they went on sale from tomorrow but they are already there.
Anyone been hit with the non instant decision on the credit for the season ticket done in it for years to instant approval and my credit rating is nearly perfect.
do I just sit here like a lemon for a decision?

We’re going for Cat 2 as well, ridiculous as those seats were £65 for the semis.
Rang them up none of my details went through they only received my name and address, so had to cancel the application and now have to reapply for my ticket.
You just know this won’t be straightforward and it’s gonna be a giant pain in the arse, yippee.
For those of you going to Brighton away what’s the plan for pre-match drinks? @Utd heap
Does anyone know when we find out which side we're allocated?
Praying for the Green Man as the torch is comparitively awful.

They’ve confirmed we’re east side again so will be torch.
Happy days except for the bar in the town charging £10 to get in before the game for the semi
Stadium bar I think it was called
That's a shame. Off to Kilburn for boozing then.
Anyone done Brighton before best to drive into Brighton and get the train/uber to Falmer?
Yeah I was surprised by this. Didn't expect such high prices. Hope the lads make it money well spent for us.
Been good luck for us so far. Good omen.

Anyone getting the train to West Ham on Sunday reckon you’ll make the last one 21:49 back to Manchester after game? Will be cutting it close. If not, anyone going Leeds and willing to split a taxi.
Not going this time, but it takes a good 55 minutes from exiting the stadium to making it back to Euston on a good day with no delays.
Got the fast train from Stratford international to St Pancras last year I think, will just leg it after game and try that
There isn't one for the new West Ham ground really. Not much help I know.
Utd will be in all the pubs around the station. I'll edit this post with the one I was in last year once my mate reminds me the name of it - was decent in there.
Anyone know if the strike effects all trains nation wide for the cup final or is it just going into/out of London? Hard to find any info on it online
Any pairs going for Wolves?
Ooh my ticket for Spurs away arrived in the post this morning.
I'm still looking if anyone got Bournemouth and can't make it. I really want to go for that game.
Brighton away tickets appear to be on to buy - 4pm
