Wembley: Pre-Match Plan

[Mackem magic]

On the bus so arriving into Victoria then will be drinking in the Shakespeare with a few mates before getting the tube via Green Park

Is it still called that ?

Had some great sessions in there over the years.

Only to the haters and grumpy barstewards.

I'm just joking lad! Enjoy the day

Absolutely no probs mate, TBF I'd expect some hostility posting on another set of fans forum.

Yeah a Greene King pub now however me too. Handy location and a good pub, plenty of space too.

 

[Bladesman87]

Driving down from Loughborough parking at the stadium and taking the whole day in.

 

[DronfieldBlade94]

Drinking around Kilburn area. 9 minutes on the tube to Wembley Park. Couple of nice pubs around there with North London Tavern bang next to the tube station.

UTB

I’m busy hatching a plan to get Trafalgar Square closed off next weekend

Let them cram into Trafalgar Square, it’ll make everywhere else much more pleasant.

7:15 train from Donny ditch bag at hotel ( staying overnight , quick sarnie / brekkie & then off up to Baker St . Stay around there til around 2 & head off to ground .
After match drinking in Camden then off to Covent Garden later

 

[John Street West Terrace]

Soho still has a few decent pubs left if people find themselves in central London.

Ok in day at night they start charging to go in if out after

That depends on the respect shown. We have a few fans of other teams,such as HammerInPeace who have settled in nicely on here & become part of the furniture. On the other hand, if you come on here to be a prick, like DH9, you can expect both barrels. A few of ours don’t like it, but they’re a small minority and can be ignored

Thameslink from St Pancras, heading to Luton Airport, get off at 1st stop West Hampstead, cracking boozer called the Railway, 5 stops on the tube, jubilee line to Wembley Park ..

 

[MojoMuffin]

Me and my mate were going to drive to Stanmore and get the 10 min tube to Wembley (Cheers for the advice on that fellow blades). Are there any decent places to drink around there whether it be inside the stadium or around it you'd recommend? We'll be wearing blades shirts so I'm not sure if there's a certain side we're supposed to go to or limitations on where we can go.

Is that near the station?

 

[KeyffSmyff]

Down to Wembley Stadium Station around 1.30. Try and find somewhere to have a piss, wander around soak up the atmosphere. Get in 2.15 ish enjoy the build up.

Torch, Baker Street seems popular if you haven’t got tickets for box park

[Sportbilly /Detroit Blade]

10.00am kick off EST which is not great, particularly as I will be on dad duties at that time

You have time to orchestrate a trial separation with an emotional reconciliation next Monday.

 

[Camden Blade]

Tottenham Court Road is an option. There are a lot of good ones just off it, on the adjacent streets like the Bricklayers Arms, the Fitzroy, the Carpenter's Arms.

 

[Sid1978]

Car to MK, train and tube and then into the boxpark for about 10am.

Not much around Stanmore or the tube stations between there and Wembley. Maybe stay on tube past Wembley and get off at Kilburn or West Hampstead. Plenty of choice around there.

 

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

Yeah a Greene King pub now however me too. Handy location and a good pub, plenty of space too.

And about £7 a pint!

 

[Hblockblade]

Going down Friday , Friday night will meet with fellow blades to get slaughtered

Big hair of dog Saturday then

 

[Moan? Nope-I saw Longhorn]

Staying over in High Wycombe Friday
30 mins direct train to Wembley - none of this hoi polloi tube shite

 

[John Street West Terrace]

Torch, Baker Street seems popular if you haven’t got tickets for box park

Or The Globe

 

[Hblockblade]

Club coach down on Saturday morning, not a Scoobies what I'm doing after that! On me tod and not drank before a game at Wembley before (only been once and was too young to drink)

Had a look at the pubs on the east side of the ground, may get the tube instead but would prefer to stay near the ground so I'm not whittling about getting back in time for kick off

Lots will be in the torch mate close to wembley

 

[tyneblade]

I'm on a 7am train from Newcastle on Saturday. My focus is on surviving that.

One of these and a jacket seems good bet.


Toffs used the same one for their Sunderland 1937 version.
