Theres 4 of us staying near Heathrow (Fri-Sun) but will be boozing pre and post match in Uxbridge too. The Three Tuns is one of a few good boozers in that area.
three tuns is our regular, was in there before the semi final just had one more as you do and nearly missed kick off,
been staying in Uxbridge for past 8 years
 
Don't usually drive down but thinking of stopping in Watford, any recommendations for parking?
Book Wealdstone FC £7.50 then short journey on train to Wembley Park approx £4 EW

I'm buying tickets for a friend who is one of my friends and family. He's cancelled the Fa Cup scheme for next season. BUT it's now not showing on his online account for this season. Our window opens tomorrow. Will I be able to buy tickets? Anyone done similar and been okay?

Thanks in advance.
 
Had £75 front tickets in basket, check out "Account Blocked" due to 'bot activity'....

After 10 minutes, finally refreshed - no front yellow tickets left.

Absolute shambles of a site - and not paying the same price to sit in Kent watching the game.
 
Thinking about it, Wembley Stadium station has two queues. One to Marylebone and one the other way - Wycombe/Oxford/Birmingham I think.
I used that for the first time for the SF after driving to Beaconsfield.

Journey in brilliant - easy parking, fast train, station a stone’s throw from the stadium

Journey back awful. Stood in a queue for nearly an hour waiting to be let down on to the platform. We watched the stadium empty and the last stragglers walk past and still we were stood there. Never again.

This is rubbish - used for semi final stayed to clap players off and was on a train back to oxford within 20 mins
 
Both me and my husband are season ticket holders. I can't go to the final and I want to give my ticket to my husband's friend that I often transfer my ticket to when I can't go to home matches. He's on my friends and family list. Looks like tickets are non-transferable though. Is there any permitted way for him to use the ticket in my name? But also, how is the ticket delivered? My husband will buy both tickets at the same time and assign one to me but think I read ticket is sent via a link for downloading into my wallet so can't see how I can get the ticket onto friend's phone anyway. Or is there no legit way and just have to risk it and hope not one of the random ticket checks?

We stay in Beaconsfield and honestly mate it never used to be like that. Getting on the train back was a breeze, in it for barely 30 minutes.

Since the Villa final it's been horrendous! We queued for an hour and didn't move, so decided to go get food to let the queue go down. Got food, went back and the queue was even longer!!!

It's because they've started to mess about with the queuing system. They never had the metal barriers put up before and since they've done that it's gone to turd.

Semi finals are worse because both sets of supporters are generally leaving close together. If there's a trophy presentation then it lets the losers mainly clear first before the winners turn up.
 
Website is garbage, who tests these things, Stevie Wonder?

When you get to the seating plan it's almost impossible to see on a mobile and tricky. It took me about 16 minutes in the queue which was a bit slower than normal but I think that's because it dropped straight from 18,000 points to 12,000 so probably more accessing it at the same time. Then in spite of using the same card that's on the site I had to wait for an access code and put my email address in. Still it's done now, better than queuing round the houses at Maine Road like the old days I guess lol.
