Wembley - Pubs/Travel

Slightly off-topic but I didn't know that. Where abouts?
I live in Hartshill.

Bucknall 

Ooh, dangerously close to Abby Hulton there, mate!

Only kidding. Good to know there's another Stokey on here. I think Jonty's from Clayton.

Back on topic, I don't have a ticket so won't be joining you 

The Globe pub on baker street,right near the tube station is the pub a lot of reds are heading. its only 2 stops from wembley on the tube as well

Hoping to get there for around 11:30 myself redman 

City fan in peace, apologies if this is in the wrong section.

If anybody wants a return train ticket (Manchester to London Euston) on Sunday, they can have it for free. Can't remember the exact times that I've booked but the details are something like 8am OUT, and 9pm RETURN. Whoever has it must have a young persons railcard, otherwise the ticket is invalid.

Just so I don't get any sh*t about being arrogant or cocky...
I booked my train ticket as soon as we made it to the semi final, just in case we reached Wembley again. Basically if I booked it in advance it would cost me £15, plus I had a £10 voucher which had to be used so it made sense to risk it, I was only losing £5 and it would have cost about £30/£40 if I'd waited until 25th Jan.

Don't want to rip a football fan off because as a regular away fan, I know how much it hits the pocket. So send me a message with your address and I'll send the train tickets over to you.

Good luck for the season

Very quiet in here!

Only realised yesterday that Arsenal are playing Spurs at the Emirates on Sunday at 1:30.

Now, Im no expert on London but isnt the Emirates in the same area as Wembley? If so, hell of a mix of fans in a small radius using public transport / watching in pubs etc

We're heading down on the coach.

Yes, noticed that the London derby was on the same day.  Does seem a little bit odd.  Mancs are down in Norwich as well.

Just expected certain pubs to be allocated and not just a free for all.

Anyone know which pubs they're heading to? Never been to the Wembley area so I haven't the foggiest.

I've done some ringing around today and both the torch and the green man are allocated to us so I'll be heading to one of those.

Both in walking distance to the ground too.

Depends what time we get down there.  Not averse to popping a stop away on the tube for a boozer - but if there is one handy enough - so be it.

I'm sure I'll have 'lubricated' on the trip down.

Come 3:30 though I will be approximately here.

Just hope your not on a dry coach!

The reason we've got a mini-bus.

I think I'll be in the Claddagh Ring, not too sure yet. I think it's near Wembley & the Emirates.

Does anyone know where the Carlong tickets are located in Wembley? Like are they near the Liverpool section I wonder?

You kept that one quiet, ya c**t! 

Just hope your not on a dry coach!

If so, you n half have some catching up to do! 

By the way..Im always slagging off the people with camera's at our games but i've been thinking..cup final..wembley..it be ok wouldn't it 

Obviously, nothing during play but pre/post match and outside etc

Maybe it's easier to just stay in London for the night? There are some cheap hostels there.

Yes there are some cheap places , like these 2:


£44 single room

£35 single room

Ive stayed in both and highly recommend them. Breakie included as well!

There are hostels of course which are cheaper...

Hi lad... i applied for the balloting but missed out. Absolutely gutted especially because i booked my weekend in london day after the 2nd leg semis. I got 2 nights plus travel for 166 quid. If the globe pub is where the redmen heading to prior to the game i will get my ass in there

I will be in london from saturday, id like to know if anyone is going on saturday. need a good pre-match p*ss up

cheers

I've stayed over in London twice in the past 3 years as Warrington Wolves have been in two challenge cup finals in 09 and 10. We stayed in a hotel in Watford (the name of which escapes me) and got Taxis to Wembley.

The best pub has got to be The Greyhound. It is 0.2 miles from the stadium. The atmosphere in there was brilliant before (probably during) and after kick off.

Has a few off licenses surrounding it as well:
