Traveling from Israel with my daughter, arriving at London on Friday night (first time in the UK since the Exeter final)
Unused ticket purchased for the birmingham game, 2 laptops and 4 browsers did the trick on general sale this morning.
Hope the lads preparation for Luton will be as good as mine
Already excited

I’ll be coming up from Devon, early train into Paddington, over to China town for lunch and then on the tube nice and early to get to the ground. I might try and get the train back that evening, but also might be in no fit state to do so with a bit of luck.

Whereabouts in Devon?

I'm travelling from Dawlish. Leaving Sometime on Friday, couple of drinks, stay the night and head back sometime after the game.

I'm torn between parking near Wembley or parking somewhere on the metropolitan line and getting the tube in to avoid traffic.

Anyone else doing similar and have any advice?

Might be better off parking further out then tube in as I'd imagine Wembley parking after the game will be chaos to get out.

Driving with my son from Central Scotland to my niece's house in Wellingborough on Friday. We will be joined by my friend from Birmingham on Saturday morning and driving down to Wembley around midday & have paid to park on someone's driveway. Back to Wellingborough after the match and will be up early on Sunday as my niece is catching a coach to go on holiday at 3:30 so we will head back to Scotland at the same time.

I’m staying in a hotel room sold to me by an Arsenal fan who had booked it thinking they’d be there for a title celebration.

Likely training from Canley and spending the afternoon in the allocated pub. Have we been told which pub we’ve got yet? Do we have green man?

I keep seeing mentions of Wealdstone FC. Are they offering up cheap parking or something?

Fanzone Coventry -

The Wealdstone FC Fan Zone, ideally located for supporters looking for parking, a drink and burger ahead of a game at Wembley, family friendly

When I booked no, which I did think was strange as we've gone direct before. Checked now and Chiltern have added Wembley Stadium as a stop, so all good.

Travelling on Friday from: Lowestoft - Norwich - Liverpool St - Wembley Park.

Returning on Sunday from: Wembley Park - Liverpool St - Norwich - Lowestoft.

Incidentally, for those travelling on the Friday, are there any particular pubs being touted as potential meeting points for the Friday night ?

Getting train down from Newcastle upon Tyne. My return is the last train back at 9pm from Kings Cross. If it goes to penalties think I may struggle to make it, so you might see me on here praying for a lift back to Coventry to stay with my parents instead!

I know it's stating the bleedin obvious, but just a reminder.....





I remember last time out, thinking I would be fine going at 10am, but it was carnage at Coventry station.

Glad I am coming from a completely different direction on this occasion

Good luck.

Agreed. The previous two occasions we’ve boarded pre Coventry to avoid the madness.

On Saturday we’re on a completely different line!
