Right then, it seems some are still getting over yesterday so let's get to the big one.

A week today we'll be at the home of football. The most iconic stadium in the world playing against the biggest football club on the planet in the most prestigious domestic club competition.

36,000 Sky Blue Army en masse. Robins' kids against the £300,000 a week megastars.

What's everyone's plans? When are you leaving? Where are you drinking? What are you drinking? How much are you drinking?

Good job we aren't because Madrid don't have the global reach of United.

Coach from the Shepard might try and squeeze a couple of beers in and have a look at the fan zone but can’t be bothered with all the queuing down there

Driving down to Cov on Sat night, got a couple to pick up in Banbury on Sunday morning and then heading to Thame. Breakfast and beers then (0% for me) and then a train to Wembley. Depending upon what time I drop off in Cov on sunday evening may drive straight back north.

Nonsense (I am lucky enough to have been to all three)

Man Utd twitter followers: 37.7m

Real Madrid: 50.2m

RM are the biggest club in the world and the pinnacle of club football

Man U will never be as big as us.

Clarrie Bourton's season goalscoring record easily beats their top scorer record and Dion Dublin left Man U to go on to bigger things with us.

Land at Luton at 10.30. Drop bag at hotel. Train to West Hampstead then tube to Wembley, hopefully arrive about 12.30. Not sure from there but will probably get in the ground reasonably early as easy to get a beer in the middle tier. Back to LTN Sunday night, 7.30 flight to GVA on Monday morning.

Anyone know if there is a fan zone as well as Box Park this time? I can't seem to find any information about it aside from a post from Box Park saying the fan zone is there... But that's all booked up

Go to the Green Man, shake head at the size of the queue at the bar, walk out, go to the fanzone, stand in a queue which doesn't move for half hour, shake head, walk to the ground, stand outside waiting for it to open, win FA cup semi final

Travelling from North Devon to just outside the M25 on Saturday afternoon With daughter. Stay at hotel. Find somewhere to watch Chelsea v Man City and have a few drinks. Train into London in the morning. Up to Wembley a few hours before KO. Win, train back to Hemel and drive home. Should get back before midnight. Don’t think we will need extra time.

Probably quicker than getting back to Ealing BDY. Wembley surprisingly difficult from Ealing via tube considering how close they are
