Leeds to Formby - valid via either Southport or Kirkby?

[43094]

Hello

Does anyone know if a Leeds - Formby return (returning on the same day) would be valid via both Southport (travelling via either Manchester Victoria or Manchester Piccadilly) and via Kirkby (travelling via Manchester Victoria or Manchester Piccadilly, and Wigan)?

Also, would a Manchester Stations - Formby Day Return be valid via both routes?

Can anyone see any options for reducing the price of the Leeds - Formby ticket, by splitting etc? There would be one PRIV and one normal fare, and the ability to go via either or both of Southport and Kirkby would be useful.

Thanks in advance.
