Do what the rest of us did, look yourself and decide for yourself and don't be so lazy by coming on here expecting people to do the spadework for you.

Got my ticket for Wembley. Just wondered what would be the best time for getting down there, which train to Euston should i get down there and what time train should i get back?
Also, from Euston, how do i get to the green man pub?

Also (i know know, mithering!) what is the cheapest train i can get? Found a return for £70 cheapest so far
Cheers

Oooo er missus, PMT by any chance

Get off at Watford Junction and get train straight to wembley central.

 

[M_Royale]

We'll be arriving at St Pancras at around 9.32 AM. Anyone have any idea when our supporters is beginning to arrive in London!?

 

[peoffrey]

Try Marlebone. Round the corner from Baker Street. Get the overland train to wembley stadium from there approx 6 minutes..

Wouldnt go from Baker street to Wembley Park - it will be full of their lot

I think we've got the part of the ground that Wembley Park approaches.

No mate, we've got Wembley Stadium and Wembley Central.

Wembley park is where them steps lead to Wembley Way, which will be vermin infested waiting to pounce on any innocent Blue.

I'd go to Wembley Park but I don't have a chainsaw.

 

[adamkeyworth]

change at watford junction to wembley central.
wembley park will be full of their lot like last time.

Thanks for the advice. I'm trying to organise everyone so it looks like a change of plan. Marylebone followed by the Bakerloo to Wembley Central.

If you're going from Marylebone you can get the regular trains to Wembley Stadium from there. Not sure how frequent they are though, or if they're covered by the London travelcards etc but they'll be quicker. Also if you're coming into Euston you can go direct to Wembley Central from there on the Overground.

Edit: You can use travelcards if you're going into Wembley Stadium station.

Four of us will be travelling up from Spain, I think that's pretty much to the south of 'that London'. Hopefully there will not be any rags on the plane; if there are, some of them might find themselves swimming once we get over the Bay of Biscay!!!!!!

 

[BradshawsBlues]

It would be pretty unfair on the poor sea creatures to pollute their habitat with united scum.

I'm just going to get a corner seat and prepare for the inevitable attempt on my life on the way up, oh to be a city supporter! Aiming to get the 9.10 train from Basingstoke arriving at Wembley Stadium 11.30ish, anyone going to be on that route? I have to change at Waterloo and Marylebone on the way up - then on to the green man pub.

I got a stern telling off on my way back from the semis by what I assume was a father and son combo. They started having go at me because I was on the train west rather than north and they thought "all city fans were from manchester". But what ever appeases them, can't say it bothered me much, the day was ours.

Of course wembley way was a shit show, but we all know about that good stuff.

I'm sure you'll be fine. Once you get on the bakerloo line i'm sure it will be mostly blues.

On a side note does anyone know of any city pubs in the center(ish) area again? I know by baker street a few down there were last time, same deal?

 

[TOPCAT1961]

anyone going from cambridge area about 8ish

Thanks

Re: Charity shield

Thanks for that. I meant more like once I get near to the ground.

 

[BradshawsBlues]

Thanks for the advice mate, theres not much the tossers could say that i've not heard already. Yeah i'd be interested to know which pubs people are going to, as i'm guessing the green man will be packed pretty early! Good to have a backup just in case the train gets delayed.
