Anyone else heard rumours about just stop oil making trouble tomorrow?

They ran onto the Twickenham pitch at the rugby union grand final last weekend and one of the players picked one of them up and slung him off the pitch.

Took me six hours from Preston to near Oxford. Terrible traffic and roadworks. Went by the M40 and didn’t see a single Rag. Blues at every service station and this is their route!

I went that way n’all. M6>M40>A40… it was carnage, I’d say the worst car journey I’ve ever done for traffic.

But only saw Blues and only Blues in my hotel so far n’all.

Holed up in my hotel now, five minutes' walk from St Pancras station. Looking forward to heading out to Wealdstone in the morning. Might try to locate a watering hole nearby later on for a lime cordial or two.

Try Mabel’s. South of the Euston Rd. Seemed to be City friendly when I was there. Fairly pleasant pub anyway.

The Lucas Arms is a good shout, traditional small pub and reasonable prices.
 
Heads up blues set off sharpish tomorrow as just on last train to Euston from wolves. My short journey in car from wigan to Wolverhampton took in excess of 3 1/2 hours and can’t see it being much better tomorrow. Don’t want any blues missing the fun!3

Was thinking of getting the train from there or Kingsbury, last time I was At Stanmore for the liverpool final the last pub shut in Stanmore for good so we got the next stop to Kingsbury for a pint ,some Irish bar

Most of us are at the mercy of coaches mate due to no trains. I think mine sets of anytime from 6:45 am. Fridays are notoriously busy with everyone finishing work and heading home so hopefully, cup final travel excepted, it's eased off a little. We have the three concerts in Manchester but with a bit of luck that shouldn't impact us too much.
 
Was aiming for 8am start from Macclesfield but will head off earlier if I can. Given all the horror stories of the M6/M40 think I’ll take the scenic route through Leek and Ashbourne to Derby and the M1. I expect I’ll keep moving nicely till I get to the motorway at least

On my mobile ticket, it says Entrance 1.30-2.00. Does this mean they will only let you in between these times I.e. if you’re not through the turnstile by 2.00, you can’t get in?

Nope, arrive when you want. They try and stagger the times people getting in the ground. Something brought in immediately after covid I think but no-one pays any attention and you certainly won't be prevented from getting in whatever time you get there
