Just having a little look at travel options for Oxford should we draw on Sunday, the replay is set for Tuesday 19th.

Very easy for drivers, it's right next to the A40 (Northern Bypass) and you can come off onto Marsh Lane, which is where the ground is.

Two options for public transport, the train is £23.50 off peak return, be careful though as there are a lot of trains between 4.30pm and 6pm that will not accept off peak tickets - according to the National Rail site there are a few trains that will, so check before you travel. From the train station it's a 14A bus to the ground, via my suggested pub, the Red Lion, which is 5-10 mins walk from the ground and a couple of bus stops before. Trains back run late enough to not worry about it if there's extra time and penalties.

The second option is the Oxford Tube (coach service) - which costs £17 return, and can be picked up from Victoria, Marble Arch, Shepherd's Bush, Notting Hill Gate, or Hillingdon. These run all night also.

Last bus back to the City Centre from near the ground is 23.08 from nearby Cherwell Drive, so not much post match drinking time especially if extra time and penalties, but still should be ok!
