Wembley arrival times?

[MonsallBlue]

What time do the coaches usually arrive at?

just trying to work out how long I am going to be there before the game.

gonna cost me a fortune before I even think about spending in London.....

Thinking of going with soccerexpress if that helps

I'm thinking of going on the train, will cost £60 for me and my sister on our railcard for off peak tickets which works out the same as paying for two coach seats (going off what compaies like Soccer Express are quoting). I'll probably end up getting into London at about 12 if we're kicking off at 5:15. Benefit of off peak tickets is we can then get any train we want back home, we're not just limited to one.

what is the situation with coach parking, is there just 1 shared one or 2 seperate ones ie. 1 for each team

Think our coach sets off at 7. Should be a great day:)

Are you train people confident of making the train back? Isnt the last one 9pm? Would imagine that one will be rammed and if penalties etc might not make it.

What a stupid kick off time this is. Once again its not the fans that matter

Do you not think they've gone for two late kick-offs (Stoke-Bolton is 4pm I think) because all supporters will be making a 200 mile journey down?

Surely it's better to arrive home late after the game than miss kick off?

No they have gone for two late kick offs because they want it on TV and they cant put it on when other games are being played. The TV companies want maximum advertising revenue and need all football fans at home watching it not at their respective games.

The Kick off times are nothing to do with fans having to get there. They would be the same if Spurs were playing Arsenal.

I dont care what time I get home but I am saying that getting the train there and back in a day is risky.

It's only a 20 minute tube ride from Wembley Park to Euston Square, then a 5 minute walk to Euston. Should make it.

If it was purely about tv they could have had a 12.30 kick off, which is what probably would have happened for an Arsenal v Spurs match.

I'm not disagreeing it isn't about tv but I do think they've gone for late kick-offs rather than early to help fans.

I agree about the risk in getting trains though. We'll be going on a coach I think.
