Just been planning my trip to Goodison Park in a few weeks and I've noticed there's supposed to be engineering work taking place between Sat 3rd Dec and Fri 9th Dec on Merseyrail services. I'm a bit reluctant to buy a ticket for the match unless I know I can get there on the train in time, because it's my only source of transport for this game.
The train I'm planning on getting is scheduled to get into Kirkdale Station at just after 1pm, do you think I'll be safe to buy a ticket for the match knowing the train will arrive there in time? It's only 1 mile or so from Goodison Park so I guess it would take pretty drastic delays for me to miss kick-off.
Don't suppose any Merseyside based Stokies know anymore about this Engineering work on the lines and what sort of delays to expect, if any?
Thanks in Advance

National Rail say maybe engineering works, Merseyrail say no scheduled works !! Go into Lime Street, shouldn't be affected by Merseyrail except perhaps 10 minutes delays, buses from across the road straight to Goodison, or check Merseyrail trains when you get to Lime Street. Merseyrail seem to think about Goodison and Anfield when planning works and usually keep away from those dates

Is this allocation likely to sell out? Call me tight, but I want to wait until general sale so I can try and get a concession ;D
