R1: Sheffield Wednesday (A), 600 mile round trip, 12:15 KO.
R2: Rochdale (A), 600 mile round trip, 12:15 KO.
R3: Birmingham (A), 17:30 KO making it impossible to get the last train back to Plymouth.
R4 Chelsea (A), 430 mile round trip, 12:30 KO.

Zero consideration for fans.
The FA Cup really is just the luck of the draw though. They could just as easily have been home ties.

Least fans can get there and get back okay even if it's extra time and penalties.

I'm night shift the Saturday so will probably just watch it on the box rather than spent money on us playing the Chelsea youth side.

Think I’ll travel up overnight Friday and then stay in London on the Saturday. I was really hoping it would be the Friday night.

The rip off train fares are even more irritating given that there are replacement bus services between Tiverton and Plymouth for most of the weekend.
I've never had a train ticket checked when getting on to a rail replacement. Possibly a way to reduce the cost.

Is that from plymouth? I've just got £170 for 2 on the Saturday. More than one of our Season tickets cost. That's just to Paddington, not included travel across London or tickets.
