For those like myself, going on the train, the quickes and cheapest option appears to be to go from Crewe, only one change £57. Gets back at 21.22hrs
Can't face that much time on a coach!!

Me and my brother are hoping to go via train from Cumbria, don't think there is any cheap route to Middlesbrough really, we are thinking of going via Preston then i think there is a straight train journey from there, or another option is getting the train to Edinburgh and then to Middlesbrough, either way i think it worked out about £53 for us on the train

Stoke - Manc Pic Return £10 Manc Pic - Boro Return £43

There is no way I am sitting on a Stoke travel bore bus for that amount of time, train via Piccadilly for us. Costs the extra £25 but it is well worth it and you have more freedom.

Id rather gouge my eyes out with a shitty stick than pay £57 to go on the train.
What a total rip off!!

STM If you book from Stoke you have to get a bus from Stoke to Crewe then Crewe to Manchester, then Manchester to Middlesbrough, then Mid to Man, Man to Stafford then a bus from stafford to Stoke Times roughly, Stoke 08.00 arrive middlesbrough 12.30 Middlesbrough 18.07 arrive Stoke 23.15 Go from Crewe, its just one stop both ways in Manchester, get there same time, but get back at 21.22hrs
