Railway station and train to Wembley, not worth fooking about trying to find somewhere else around there.

Ignore anyone who says "train station" ;-)

They’ve got a nice train station at Alti.

I've been having problems getting tickets for me and my disabled friend,despite meeting the criteria, is it best to phone or go to down to the Etihad(15 minute drive)? I don't know where the ticket office has moved to either,if anyone can advise. Cheers.

Yeah, as usual they make it difficult to get a ticket online. Try and ring the ticket office as early as possible. Good luck.

Baker street to Wembley Park is two stops on the Metropolitan line. The first stop is Finchley Road where The North Star pub is a big old school boozer just across the road which accommodates football fans. It was full of Forest last time but seemed to have no door policy for segregation. Beer garden with bar out the back. Good Guinness too.
Small tube station so a real quick hop to Wembley Park.

Parking at IKEA Wembley £7.50 this includes insurance through app just park. Note: 25 min walk to stadium

Not bad, meatballs for pre match.

You can work out Peps formation.

A flat pack 4 :-)

What time have people booked their return trains after the game

Open off peak return but hoping to make the 2035 from Euston

Leaving your car in London, you’ll need that insurance.

We have been going to the Dolphin pub since the semi final v Utd in 2012

This will be our 30th trip to the pub.

See you in there mate

Can anyone tell me what the torch is like? Only ever been to crystal club when we’ve been on the east side but fancying a change of scenery this time round

Garbage from my experience - avoid. Overcrowded, crap beer, plastic pots and overpriced. Id seek pre-match refreshment away from the stadium and hop on the tube. The East side pubs are largely naff.

We went in a great little pub close to the ground when we played Villa, all blues but not in the 'list' given in the media. No idea what it was called. Had to walk through the Villa fans to get to the ground cheapish pints and the group who sit in front of us at City were in there too.

Last time v the rags, we'd parked up halfway to the tube station and a car stopped asking where we were going (planned Wealdstone as a walk up) he said go the other way through the park, ended up in a quiet pub again well priced but, again no idea of it's name.

I was driving on both occasions so it's not the beer that's clouded my memory just the junior FOC status.

Now wanting to stay over Saturday night after the game any recommendations of places to stay that's good for the night out.

Watford is good.

Website acting really odd to buy tickets today, only very limited tickets showing up.

Yeh thats what it was doing when I was able to buy at 10am. I refreshed it a couple of times and then more appeared and I got a £285 ticket which is what I wanted.

Ridiculous, I know but keep persevering. I kept getting this screen but after a few attempts finally got in. £40 for this old codger up in the gods. Come on City!

 

[mrmancity9]

Only about 4000 left now, we will sell this out by 3pm.

Borehamwood is ok. Tends to be a bit cheaper than Watford. Train to West Hampstead, and then tube to Wembley Park.
