Worried about driving to the Leeds game? Don't be. Here is your complete guide to public transport which should see you there safely and without the potential of losing your licence if you have over-indulged the night before.
SILVERLINK COUNTY: Fast trains will be running from London Euston on a revised timetable.
SILVERLINK METRO: a near-normal Saturday service will operate on the Euston-Watford Junction line and also the Watford Junction-St.Albans Abbey line. There will be no service on the Bletchley-Bedford Route.
For all Silverlink timetable information, copy/paste the url below into your browser.

So that's how you can get from central London/Milton Keynes to Watford.
Now to get to Euston from elsewhere:
LONDON UNDERGROUND: A reduced service will be running with only a few central london stations closing.
LONDON BUSES: A sunday service will be operating on most routes. Check out this url for details of tubes/buses and other London Transport services:

THAMESLINK: trains are running to a revised timetable which can be found via the url below.
IMPORTANT - trains will start and terminate at Kentish Town for stations north of London and at Blackfriars for those to the south. This is due to engineering works on the new St.Pancras chunnel link.
