Travelling down in car of 7, leaving probably around 0700.

Traditional stop at Hartshead Moor to contest the Most Random Service Station Purchase (last years winner: a child's wetsuit), unravel the ribbon tied to car that will have been driving us mad for an hour or so.

Onto the Pimms by 0900. Driver getting increasingy fraught by this point, Starburst all over the car.

Park up in pre-booked parking spot by side of stadium. You know the one, you'll have seen it on 24 where some Turkish arms dealers have been plotting something dastardly before Baeur sorts it all out.

Match, return to where our car hopefully still is and get the hell out of there.

My husband is coming with us this year, as a Leigh fan, the most he's seen of Wembley is when Bolton got their backsides handed to them last year, so I hope we win so he can see a throng of primrose and blue in full voice.

Can't wait.

Thanks for all the tips & advice. Think it will be very useful.

HY what are the best options if we are just staying overnight Oyster card wise.

We will be dropped off at Wembley on the Saturday then after the game make our way to Gloucester Road Tube. Then out for a meal & drink in the evening again using the Tube and the on the Sunday morning Gloucester Road back to Wembley.

55 of us going down on a coach from Warrington RU club.
Cool boxes stashed and in block 120.

stayed at the millenium gloucester right next to that tube station a coiple of years ago. Are you stopping there? Nice area, lots to do.

Yes thats the one

Personally i wouldn't get ripped off by paying cash every time i travel, You get Oyster Cards from underground stations, £5 refundable deposit and then add what ever money you think you'll need, if at the end of your stay you hand your card in to the station with a receipt you'll get your fiver back plus what ever money you had on the card.

It saves you loads of money.

so yed does the oyster card do all the zones on the underground plus the buses too

Yes, Oyster Card covers Tube and Buses, and London Overground, it also carries a daily cap depending on which Zones you use and what you use.

If you use just the bus it's capped at £4.20 which means it only deducts £4.20 and after that technically free travel for the rest of that day.

But using the underground/overground changes the cap level from anything from £7-£15 depending.

Sounds good to me , thanks again mate
