| Quote: Andy Gilder "Problem with trains is the short notice between the semi-final and final means it's hard to pick up any cheap tickets, unless you're prepared to go down at 6am and come back at midnight.
Did anyone go on the charter train the club put on to Murrayfield for the 2000 final? Had to stop virtually every ten minutes to let a scheduled service go past, was like something out the 1950s inside with the laminated wood tables and old-fashioned seats.'"
I've been on train twice. Once was 1995 I think to Wembley. The other was one of the Cardiff finals (the Hull FC one I think) where the charter train got delayed at Doncaster station for at least an hour. Made it to the stadium with about 20 minutes to spare (and then wished I hadn't)

Yes. I nearly had a fight with a Bradford fan who didn't understand the concept of irony when I replied to his remarks about Leeds being 'yids'.

| we normally drive to peterborough then catch the train in from there but we drove to watford for the wigan vs hull final only to find the train washed out and a supposedly hour long coach ride to the nearest working train line, after a 3 hour runaround we finally got to our seats 10 minutes into the game and saw probably the worst final ever

| Our favourite hassle free route to Wembley is to drive to Warwick Parkway (easy on M1, M69 & A46) and get the Chiltern Railways train direct to Wembley Stadium for £29 return. Two trains per hour, takes about 1 hour 20 minutes and parking at the station for £5. This means you avoid the busy bit on the roads both ways and a very quick return journey if required.

Yes but think of the cost of all that extra fuel you will use and the extra driving time and the extra traffic hassle. And you could be having a pint in your local by half eight.

| We mustn't forget that HKR have beaten both Wigan & Warrington to get to the final. Both teams that have beaten us well this year so they've shown that they know how to beat top teams in one-off games.
They will be highly motivated (Millar time again?) & I suspect it could be much harder than some on here believe.
I'm starting to get nervous already.

They beat both those teams in very wet conditions.
The weather will defo play its part. KR need to be praying for heavy rain.
