Wembley: Pre-Match Plan

[Blades80]

We’re setting off for 6:30, parking at edgeware (£3 for 24hrs) and then tube to old street and stopping over in Shoreditch. Anyone else stopping around there?

 

[Shazza]

Street as in baker is crap. Globe crap and spoons crap. town as in Camden for us lot.

Hand as in Havan?

 

[Dave]

Coach down from Pond Street, set off at 7am. Hopefully at Wembley by 11am ISH. Looking for a single box park ticket if anyone has one going. If no luck then will find some boozers around the ground.

 

[Cassius Kray]

7am coach from Derby to Finchley Road. Tube to Wembley, should be in Torch for 11.30. Few jars, take in the atmosphere on WW at 2.30 in seat for 2.45. Party in to the night

If the Man City game is anything to go by you'll be very lucky to get from Wembley Way to your seat in 15 minutes. There were massive queues to get in (despite fewer people attending).

 

[Wincobank S9 Blade]

Where ever people are, sing loud and proud make the noise! Git up

 

[Sid1978]

What time are you setting off? Presumably from Sheffield?

Think we're looking at a 7am set off, re-charge the car at Tesla, Luton and then park up at the hotel. Hopefully getting into Boxpark around 11.30am

Be setting off around 7. Mk for 9, boxpark for 10.

 

[Junior Soduko]

Best route to get in from MK? We'd previously ruled it out as thought it was too far away.

 

[chrisd]

A few of us will be in the hope and anchor in Euston from midday for a few sherbets b4 jumping on the train at Euston Square

 

[simpson07]

6am Drive down to harrow on the hill park car up in hotel car park and into town , spoons for £2 a pint beer and head off on tube for about 3 stops to Wembley can’t go wrong

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

Who decides which pub fans have? Ones on your side of Wembley?

Noticed Sunderland fans be heading to Trafalgar sq Friday night?

 

[Blade56]

How many times have we had The Green Man pub side?

As many times as we have lost at Wembley, let the losers have it.

We’re setting off 8:15ish by car to Pinner where the daughter of my neighbour is letting us have her drive as they’re away. Only worry I have is if M1 gets blocked like it did just a few hundred yards in front of us in 2014 vs Hull due to a really bad accident as we left the services. Had to wait for air ambulance and Road to be cleared. Didn’t arrive in ground until 5mins before HT.

She left us her Oyster card for tube just 5 stops from Wembley so we’ll eat and have a drink in Pinner then head to a boozer near ground for a quick one with Blades fans before going in.

Just looked but no list of pubs yet that I can find, heard Box Park but ticketed and closed for entry at noon, if true no good for us.

TBH, my brothers were sorting. I’ve just looked and we’re having a rethink….

 

[Loco Blade]

Im travelling Friday afternoon. Once checked into hotel will be heading London Bridge area as per usual Millwall missions . Loads food / drink and music down there or alternatively Camden Town for same . Never waste my time around Wembley pre match shite rip off . Depending on weather will decide Saturday possibly Elephant and Castle

 

[Jan Age]

Against Man City was there a free fan park? I seem to remember just walking in after showing a ticket?

 

[Booker4]

I'm going down on Friday late afternoon with youngest son and my mate and his son to stay with my mates friend who happens to live in the area of Wembley so that's worked out well!

 

[Gin&Juice]

I'll be patrolling the Stonebridge estate asking who wants it to in order to quell the nerves.

[Nah den]

Got an AirBnB in Pinner, heading down with the wife and kids Friday after work. Will probably have a few beers north of Wembley before heading in on tube. Want to get there in plenty of time so my son has chance to take it all in.

Borough Market ?

 

[DannyBlade1992]

Sorry if I’ve missed this, but do we know who has the fan park outside the designer outlet yet? That was pretty good for the Man City game just before we went up Wembley Way?

 

[Blade22]

Pub at Wembley Park tube station, turn left out of the station 100yrds, called The Torch, Green King Boozer.

 

[Crouchy]

London for 12 bells. St Pancras and an educational visit to the Flying Scotsman

It's not called the Flying Scotsman any more, and it hasn't been a gash pub for a very long time.

I shall be avoiding all pubs on the way in. Too much riff raff

They'll be queueing up for a bath in fountain the scruffy tw@ts

I used to work in Harlesden which was sketchy enough back then, but the Stonebridge was a whole other level, probably the scariest place I’ve been to in this country.

 

[Badger Blade]

I keep changing my mind about what I'm going to do with the added bonus of a taking my 5 year old with me.

Got to stop at Mrs B's parents in Derby on the way to drop her and #2 off so a lot depends on how much faffing about takes place there but I've said I want to be away from there at 10.30 latest.

I'm toying with any of Warwick Parkway/Bicester Village/High Wycombe/Gerrards Cross/Denham to Wembley Stadium or tubing it from somewhere like Hillingdon/Ickenham/Uxbridge which is straight off the M40 and potentially easier to get away from than Watford and the M1.

Tube's a lot cheaper than the train but probably talking at least an hour from leaving the ground to getting in the car, plus moaning for food, bored, etc when in that time I could be most of the way back.

 

[SW12 to S12 to S18]

Me too, at my age the biggest thing to consider is needing a piss before h/t or f/t and missing a goal

I had to jump off the tube last week for a piss in the Flying Horse at Tottenham Court Road after a few beers at The Oval.
The weak bladder is a terrible thing.

Some struggle so much that when they have their annual bath they dive in head first.

One for the twats thread surely

 

[SW12 to S12 to S18]

I’m playing football at 715am until 845am, then I’ll go home, have a quick shit and shower then watch the match whilst having some breakfast.

Poor effort Houston, only two of the three S's.
