How are you getting to the Cup Final?

[xgorton]

With the best will in the world I'd rather stay at home than catch another coach to Wembley. The one against United last year, run by the club was an awful experience. Too slow, too boring. Nothing extra onboard, no TV, no sandwiches or drinks,nothing. Getting there we made reasonable time but coming back was horrendous. We were told the coach would leave 30 minutes after the final whistle and they weren't waiting for anybody. I just about saw the presentation and did a bit of celebrating before having to rush back to the coach.

When I got into the pink carpark it was a nightmare trying to find it. When we arrived it was almost empty. Now it was rammed with loads of coaches and people milling around everywhere, it was very hard to locate the right coach. We were then stuck in that coach park until almost 7.30 pm. We finally arrived back at East Didsbury at 11:15 pm
Never again.

I would never go on a coach to London.

Car, M40, fuck the rag cunts

Should be a breeze on the M6 and M1 until you get to the M25 where it will suddenly turn into a car park with all those rag fuckers.

There wasn't a lot of choice last year.

When I stopped driving to away games and started using the OSC coach I felt the same way.

You just gotta tough it out until you get 'coach fit'.

There are advantages; you don't have to worry about parking at the away ground; you can read/ sleep on the way there; you often get a police escort after the game.

I'll admit it's not for everyone though.

A cup final is a bit different, you're stuck in traffic forever.

Hopefully the trains will be operating from Edinburgh that weekend. If not I will travel down on the Friday as I did for the semi-final.

Bothers driving, all staying over night of the game, back home Sunday.
Have driven a few times, last year v Sheff U and traffic was horrendous, step son and wife’s first trip to Wembley and missed kick off due to it.
Went train on my own for Chelsea few weeks ago and was fine but too damn expensive for 3 of us for the final so found hotel which was cheaper and chill out after the game.
