Official coaches to Wembley (Sportsworld)

The sheer fact you can only get in & out one way means it’s not fit for purpose and a H&S nightmare, they are literally putting lives at risk, the guy who had a turn on our coach waited over half an hour for a paramedic to arrive, somebody said I’ll ring an ambulance & I said where are you going to say you are and how is an ambulance getting in ere? I sent the lad to alert the police who where very good to be fair, that needs looking at because it could’ve ended badly for the poor chap & family
Yes someone came on our coach asking if anyone was trained. I think they said 'is anyone a properly trained medic' it clearly wasnt a laughing matter but I didn't know there was another kind of medic :-)
 
I think I’d have booked a hotel for nights that covered me getting back by train. Things like this can put a dampener on the day.
 
It was shambolic mate. We set off at 7am from Radcliffe and didn't get off the coach until about quarter past 1. Missed out on green man and box park - and I know others who's coaches didn't arrive till near kick off.

The way back was equally bad. Spent an hour and 50 sat waiting for the coach to move out of the pink car park, after having rushed back and missing most of the player celebrations cos our city rep told us we were leaving 40 mins after final whistle on the dot

glad we went in the car now J
 
We went to the semi final and vowed never to use the clubs coaches for the final or any other game again . But with playing the scum we decided to use the clubs coaches as we had two young children and didn’t fancy running the gauntlet with their idiots.
Big mistake ..it’s nothing to do with the organisation or the drivers or the club stewards on the coaches … pink and green car parks are not fit for purpose … to sit there like we’ve done on two occasions for over two hrs is beyond a joke . The place is grid locked. The place is a shit hole . There is no organisation by Wembley or the local council to get coaches away from the stadium. It’s an absolute joke and I feel sorry for all the drivers . With this wait ( and I’m no expert) our driver had to stop at the services for 45min so She could continue our journey (something to do with driving hrs) . On top of this to use the M1 is utter crazy .., stop start stop start. To get home at nearly 1.00 am is a total joke.
Going forward … you can stick going by the club coaches up your backside until somebody decides to escort all coaches away from the stadium asap … I just can’t see this happening therefore it in the future we will drive to the shit hole of a stadium
 
We went with, the " big green coach " cost 96 for me and grandson. Left at 8.30 arrived at 2.20. Didn't get the idea of leaving so late. But its the result that mattered all said and done

Son and his mate drove down early Saturday and had a hotel booked for after the game. Nice leisurely drive back yesterday.
 
Drove down, left Warrington at 7.30 stopped at Warwick services for breakfast got to Wealdstone at 11.30 tube to match stayed until and hour after game tube back stopped at first services M40 food and a brew drove home 70mph in house 10.45
In conclusion fuck the coach and the M1
 
I learnt years ago after travelling to Palace and arriving at half time that official travel is not for me.
A friend of mine went on those coaches and was fuming. I lived in London at the time and was sitting in a pub waiting for him.

I went to Palace many times but I think that was a really bad defeat too. Still, now look at us.

Yes they were adamant they'd be going 45 minutes after the final whistle. If only, we got out of that hellhole car park at 7:30! When we made our only stop on the way home they gave us 15 minutes. The sarcastic prick said, " Someone has to be last" when I got back possibly two minutes late. I said, " I haven't fucking eaten since 12, I have 2 hours 30 left I needed a sandwich, not my fault the queue was a mile long " Never again.
