Get a cheap prebook return to Euston then just use you contactless card/pay device on the London network.

Suggested route is to take the Northern Line to London Bridge then the fast train to Norwood Junction. It's a slightly longer walk than Selhurst or Thornton Heath but you avoid the crawler line from Victoria.

Walk to St Pancras. Usually a half hourly to Norwood Junction from there. Engineering work permitting. Cheaper than tube as well.

Euston Flyer or Mabel’s Tavern, don’t know what their policy is on match days though.

Just checked the trains to Euston - not even selling tickets to get down there on trainline.com...says sold out on everything after 8.15am departure! Last time i went to palace - the Grealish alleged dive day, the train was half empty all the way down.

There's availability on Chiltern lines from Moor Street to Marylebone, which we've plumped for. You can get the tube then, from Baker Street to London Bridge.

No trains from Victoria at all tomorrow, so as mentioned London Bridge and train to Norwood Junction, might have a beer around London Bridge!!

Well, it allowed Dorset Villa to contact me to let me know he had a spare. Thanks for that Richard, and to the Bournemouth Lion who was forced to give up his ticket too.
