how long to get home

Left aw emblem just after 5, up M40, quick toilet break at Warwick Services then back to Prestwich for 9:20. At the bar at 9:21. Would have been quicker if weather was better.
 
Must say the 2pm kick off was great, got down to Euston, lunch at the sports bar in Marylebone, train to wembley Stadium, got a drink in the ground.... No Budwieser :)..

On the way back, got the 16:28 to marylebone, tea in Nandos Baker St, then we found a pub open on Marylebone High St to kill time to the 19:05, home before 10, watched top gear on sky+, then the highlights.... A Lou Reed day if ever there was one....
 
well i left early bout 75 mins so missed the Navas goal and us lifting the cup so even though didnt have to be anywhere as i was staying over i saved myself being in the crowds coming out and got a good spot in the pub, Great Day

Arrived back in Mcr' around 10.30pm, but it took us an age to out of Stanmore Tube Station - then the M1 was a crawl for ages.. plus we stopped at Corley Services for half an hour.. so not too bad (services were overrun with Blues!) ;-)

Was you stalking me. Home time, route, Stanmore, and Corley was my route. Never seen the M1 so bad.

Must have been! I don't know about you though but I was pissed off (well I'd have been more so if we'd lost) about the process (or lack of) to get out of Stanmore car park - I'm sure the Police let us out on previous visits (or did I dream that?). I fancy trying somewhere different should we make back next month.
 
went by train and stayed in watford saturday night,Ricky Hatton was in wetherspoons as well,got back to wigan at 11.20 but spent 3 hrs in the flag at watford 1st
 
Parked a 5 minute walk from the ground. Was home for 9 via the m40. The weather was crap though.
 
Went back to the Holiday Inn next to the ground, had a pint then got a lift back to our hotel at Heathrow off brother-in-law who lives in Leatherhead. Set off just after 6.30 to go up to Uxbridge to pick up daughters boyfriend who was down visiting his family. He turned up half an hour late so didn't leave Uxbridge until 7.35pm. Terrible weather all the way home until around Stafford where we stopped at Keele for a KFC around 10.30pm and then arrived back into Denton meeting up with de niro whose overnight bags we'd brought back as his crowd had took the train. Arrived home at 11.45pm to watch what was left of the highlights bu fell asleep and woke up around 2.30am on the couch aching all over. Watched the full game last night and it has to be said there was a few nasty tackles from them that were let go by Atkinson. Another great weekend notched up to talk about over the future coming years.
 
Left after the lap of honour went past us was pretty quick getting a train to Milton Keynes from Wembley Central then Holyhead train to Chester home by 7:45pm pretty good going. One thing that did surprise me there was no booze ban on the train despite it obviously being a viable option for people to travel to Crewe then change for Manchester
