I had to leave bang on the final whistle to catch the last train to Leeds. Didn’t stay with the rest of our support to celebrate the win. And I headed to Wembley Park station as I thought that would be quicker than Wembley Central.

So outside the ground there were me and a handful of City fans plus thousands of united hooligans. Got a bit of a kicking before making my way to relative safety. It was all very violent for a while until mounted police charged them. Eventually City fans left the stadium, the numbers evened up and it settled down.

On the plus side I did manage to catch the final train!

Hope you didn’t fall asleep on it
 
Don’t suppose anyone knows which of our proposed service stations has a decent number of EV charging spots?

i am flying on Friday via BA from Edinburgh to Heathrow. I had to avoid Gatwick, Stansted, and Luton because the problems of getting into central London with no trains running. London City might have been an option but flights there looked expensive.

I assume that the Heathrow Express will not be running but the Underground link will be?

5 of us in a mate’s car from Gorton, Denton, Heaton Chapel, and Heaton Norris setting off at 6am. Staying in Premier Inn Stevenage which we’d booked and paid for before the train strike was announced so looking like an Uber from there to Watford Junction and the train into Wembley Central

We’re doing the same. Check in is from 3pm though isn’t it? You should be able to check in earlier for an extra £10.

My brother and his partner are looking for a lift please from Furness Vale, High Peak (paying petrol costs obviously). If anyone can help, please send me a PM and I'll pass him the details. Thanks.

Due to train strikes this season I have used megabus more than ever.
Manchester is okay,went to Wembley as well
It was not as bad as I thought it would have been.
Think the trick is try to book a seat downstairs.
Toilet working and power point working.
So should be okay.
