Getting from London to Stoke and back

[davdavon]

I'm going to be in London with my girlfriend between July 3rd-7th (travelling to see Pulp in the Wireless Festival) and with the recent concerts announced I was thinking of catching the Stoke gig. However, it's going to be our first time in the UK so I'd be grateful for some information: specifically, what is the best (cheapest/fastest) way to get from London to Stoke via public transportation? Are we going to have to spend the night in Stoke or is there a way to get back to London after the show?
Any other information that you think could be relevant would be appreciated as well.
Thanks.

You can either traval by rail or coach.

By rail from Euston to Stoke-on-Trent:

Thanks Kewpie. Unfortunately it looks like the ride is going to be too expensive for me.
