I'm returning to the UK for the first time in over 4 years this week, and I was wanting to head to Sheffield to watch the football.

Having kept up with things, Northern are on one of their strike days. I would have typically bought a return to Sheffield for £11.60 and then Supertram onwards to the football.

What's the best way of doing this journey next Saturday? I know best is subjective, but speed, then cost?

I was thinking a return on the 199 bus between Chapel en le Frith and Stockport, then a pair of advance train tickets between Stockport and Sheffield?

Focussing on journey Chinley station to Sheffield, this can be done by train but you might not like the timings! Dep Chinley 0804, change Stockport,thence dep 0854 to Sheffield, arr 0934.

Return journey, dep Sheffield 2111, change Stockport, thence dep 2238 arr Chinley 2252.

Long day out in Sheffield. I will say that the journey planner which I used also offers bus journeys for the outward, but none for the return.
