There's another train alternative as well using Marylebone rather than Euston. It's a little bit slower (but not that much) but cheaper (£27.50 return) and only involves one change in Birmingham. One thing to note next weekend, incase it affects anyone's journey up to London, is that the Northern Line is closed from Morden to Kennington.

From Kidderminster's official site:

Prices and hospitality for next weekend... Following Tuesday night's Fourth Qualifying Round replay against Bradford PA at Aggborough, Harriers are now through to the First Round proper of this year's competition.
Up next for Harriers will be another home tie, this time against Skrill South side Sutton United.
United themselves needed a replay on Tuesday night to make it through, they edged past Hemel Hempstead Town 2-0.
Managed by Paul Doswell, Sutton currently sit fourth in the South, just a few points off top spot and with a game in hand.
They will travel to Aggborough for our FA Cup contest next weekend, Saturday, 9 November 2013 at 3pm.
Harriers are pleased to announce that they have agreed heavily-reduced ticket prices for this fixture which will be an all-pay affair.

Good news regarding the ticket prices. However it does give the impression they treat the FA Cup as a second class competition.

Which we presumely had to agree? Seems odd that this game will be cheaper to get into than a standard home game!

From £14 to £10. Fine by me!
Wonder how much the seats are - they usually go for £17

They might be factoring in the 25k they get if they win, that makes it worth attracting a large home support. Also a 1st round tie is a bonus, they might not have budgeted for the game so it's all bunce.

Tony, as much as I'd like to agree with the "1st Round is a bonus" bit, after all, they've only had to get through one round, which, as a Skrill Conference Premier team, they would have been "expected" to get through surely ? The factoring in of 25k does sound "feasible" though I have to admit
