What if you were just driving down? The game is 2 weeks Sunday and yet there is still no other details since what last Friday?
For anyone interested the charter trains are 10.20, 11.55 and 12.55 ex Piccadilly and 19.29, 20.04 and 20.35 ex Euston. There's a contingency plan if the match goes to extra time / penalties.
The trains have been privately chartered by the club, so I'm guessing there'll be some sort of match ticket / travel package for anyone lucky enough to get hold of tickets.
There's 246 seats available on each train, although the trains each have a capacity of 592 so plenty of social distancing being enforced.

Just another 1,999 to find then ;-)I would literally jump through a burning hoop to watch this team play. Travelling 200 miles and having the relatively minor inconvenience of being ordered about by power hungry hi vis clad goons for a few hours is a small price to pay to be able to see arguably our greatest ever team play just once.
Where have you got this info from and was there info on ticketing arrangements?
Surely the posters who claim Corporates and Supporters Clubs prevent them from getting tickets will want to go.Just another 1,999 to find then ;-)
Would it not make more sense to send the trains to Wembley Stadium station If you are trying to ‘bubble’ people?I'm a train planner by trade & have had to time these trains this morning. I've no idea about ticketing arrangements. I'd assume these would come from the club.
Yep, you’re right. I’d love to go.Surely the posters who claim Corporates and Supporters Clubs prevent them from getting tickets will want to go.

Maybe the fans with 24k points who can't get a ticket for Bournemouth away actually want to got to most games - like they would have gone TNS away with 60k empty seats.Surely the posters who claim Corporates and Supporters Clubs prevent them from getting tickets will want to go.
I used to have a 2CV too. Two weeks minimum for that journeyWhat if you were just driving down? The game is 2 weeks Sunday and yet there is still no other details since what last Friday?
I was glad to see Bournemouth relegated as that was the only game (in the last season with fans) that I couldn’t have got into on my points. I refused to request tickets for Bournemouth away for my Branch btw.Only a nine mile walk from Euston to Wembley, wouldn't want to go on a tube or bus. I drove down the last final as the tubes were going to be the petri dishes.
I wonder what controls they will have for drinking on Wembley way?

Is that who the Rags play in the next round of the Thursday night cup?Anyone that's ever been to an away match in Europe will be well used to be ordered around and treated like shit for the pleasure of watching TBTITLAATW! :)

I was gutted Bournemouth got relegated. Nailed on 6 points and rack up a cricket scoreI was glad to see Bournemouth relegated as that was the only game (in the last season with fans) that I couldn’t have got into on my points. I refused to request tickets for Bournemouth away for my Branch btw.
Maybe the fans who turned up for Sean Goater’s last game in British football should get a ticket lol but like I’ve said, I won’t be going to Wembley this time and that’s before I’d heard of all the extra restrictions.
I’m sure everyone with 24k points will get into Wembley. Blues will only need a fraction of that amount should be OK.
And you probably wouldn't even be allowed to go in a pub to watch it !You’ve booked your train/ got your match ticket and are one of the few lucky ones able to go You turn up at Wembley and you test positive on the lateral flow ( a test between 30-60% accurate so toss of a coin stuff) Then what? You won’t be allowed in the ground or back on the train I assume.
