It's a cup final. We've done it before and can do it again.
Always believe.
Incidentally if you're driving down, try coming off the M6 at junction 15 - Stoke south. Take the A500 and then the A50 past Uttoxeter and join the M1 at J23 south of Derby. You won't get held up at Birmingham, and it's only 2 miles longer than the conventional M6/M1 route.

But there is those pesky roundabouts.
M6 toll may well be worth the money in this instance.
I believe it is possible to follow the car in front through if you are right up their backside. A former colleague accidentally discovered this when I was living/working in Stafford when the barrier didn't come down as he was driving through, credit card at the ready!

I think we'll be taking the toll road. Plus the services down there are better, usually a bit less busy. Probably our breakfast stop.

M40 far nicer and better service areas than the M1.
Plus with the M1, you will have the Hull supporters for company.
