Catching earlier service on outward journey

[Segedunum]

Hi folks,

On next Wednesday, February 8th, I need to be in Sheffield for a University subject open day. I was informed that it was to start at 13:30, so I booked the appropriate tickets online, which were advances from Newcastle to Leeds and an Off Peak Day Return from Leeds to Sheffield.

However, they've since changed this to 10:30 which means that I've bought another advance to Leeds for a couple of quid but the sticking point appears to be the Off Peak Day Return. It's 16-25 railcard discounted and not valid until after 10am as it is under 12 pounds, costing £7.45.

I would like to now travel on the 0911 service from Leeds to Sheffield, so can anyone advise on the appropriate excess fare in order to use this service?

Thanks in advance.

I'm sure Newcastle ticket office will be happy to excess it up to, in this case, the undiscounted rate

Considering that the ticket I hold is routed "Not via Doncaster" would be it be possible to excess it to an any permitted Anytime Day Return which would be £12, ie a £4.55 difference? The one not valid via Doncaster would be the exact same price considering the pre 10am departure.

An undiscounted Off Peak Day Return isn't valid on the 0911 either, I probably should have also mentioned that.
