    Driving down to London on the day.....

    Just checked. Watford Junction car park has 762 spaces. Err..... good luck with that. It states that on a weekday the car park is usually full by 8am. Now imagine thousands of Coventry City fans all heading down that way by car on the Sunday. Going to need careful planning and several plan...

    Driving down to London on the day.....

    Well you make a good point. I don't know what the cost is, but if there are indeed 40,000 travelling down to London, you can be bound sure that many, many fans will be going by car and be of the same notion to go and park there at Watford Junction. People certainly need to think about the...

    A Few Thoughts From Last Night...

    I don't think I have ever sworn at a football match. I understand why people do, it's a passionate game, but I do think you should try and temper it and be aware if there are young kids around. I also hate the C word. Just find it so crude and distasteful.

    Wembley....Chosen method of travel?

    I've got a Family and Friends Railcard. So, now I just need to find some random child to go with me.

    No. The official FA Wembley site though says 4.30.

    Wembley Tickets...

    As it may be a 40,000 allocation I think ST holders will get more than 2 tickets each. The allocation, whatever it is, will surely not exceed demand.

    Player Ratings

    I thought he was very good for the first 30 mins against Millwall too. He did then fade very badly. Wonder if he is a confidence player? As I say, he started very brightly against Millwall, but then badly misplaced a couple of passes and then faded. I don't think he's been crap. He's been...

    Yep, Torch, your family won't miss out. Let them sort it for you if they can and if for any reason your family can't, just let us know on here and we will sort it out for you. I am more than happy to help out where I can for you. Oh and well said, Calista. :)

    If you go on the FA Wembley official site it states 4.30 pm kick off.

    A Few Thoughts From Last Night...

    Yep. To make it all completely watertight and cover all bases I have now booked trains at 10.30, 11.30, 12.30 and 1 pm and then trains back at 20.00, 20.30, 21.00 and 22.30. If it's a midnight kick off I am sleeping on the streets and have already asked my wife to save any 24 packet Walker's...

    You should be okay. May just need to get a later train home and an earlier one going, but I think you should be okay.

    Yeah, but everywhere else is fine.

    I have already booked 4 trains, so yeah, why not!! Shame you didn't mention it earlier. Would have loved to have come along. :)

    You may be right. I hardly ever go to London on a Sunday, it is nearly always midweek.

    Who is it that says the kids aren't bothered?

    Yeah, fair point. For every euphoria of such a win there is the other side of the coin of bitter disappointment of a defeat. I used to be heartbroken when I was a kid and the City lost. I remember a game against Newcastle in the cup. I think we had drawn 1-1 and the reply was on the radio. I...

    Yeah, just not many Virgin trains stop at Watford Junction from Coventry. We get the train to London almost every week and I would say only about 1 in 10 of them stop at Watford Junction. London Midland ones, yes, but those trains are so much slower and on Sunday even slower still.

    Striker situation

    Gone back for treatment. The thought is though that he might need an op. If so that will be his season over we think.
