So right I've left this late but I want to come over to the Swansea game and it's the first time I've organised it by myself. So I book my flights to Manchester, get a train from the station beside the airport to Horwich ? In regards of tickets if I order them today will they be sent out to me before Saturday or can I collect them at the stadium ?

Think you need to train into Manchester then out again to Horwich.

If you have a printer at home, buy your tickets for print at home, and they arrive instantly. Just print them out.

Not tried it, but I reckon you might be able to get away with the barcode/pdf ticket on your phone...I'd check before trying this one though

Just checked for you, some from Manchester Airport are direct. others, change at Bolton.

Cheers, so the main train station isn't beside the airport, so train into Manchester then next to Horwich. Sounds easy enough

Some trains go direct from the airport to Horwich. £3.90 return. Bargain!

Yep. Get the Blackpool North train. They're every 30 minutes or so.
