Warrington RLFC: The Wire, NOT Warrington Wolves FORZA WIRE:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_46584.jpg



Train to Euston, Tube from Euston Square to Wembley Park then probably go the Torch or maybe just get a few cans from the offy and sit off in that area between the bottom of the steps and the Premier Inn for a couple of hours.

After the match Tube back to central London and either head to Carnaby Street for a bit of shopping if we've got time or just head straight to Euston if we haven't, then train home.

Train up Friday evening, out on the lash Friday night, up Saturday morning, back out on the beer, no doubt make a trip to the Green Man, sample the atmosphere and hopefully nice weather, game, then back out on the lash Saturday night, up Sunday and back home in the afternoon, hopefully celebrating another CC victory.

Neither glass half full or empty. Just a realist.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_49863.jpg



Coach from Wilkies, with Mrs G (her first Wembley)
Probably open the first Stella around tenish (no, I'm not talking about the sport that Sean Connery thinks Andy Murray plays)
A few more around the stadium
Mr hipflask (filled with a nice malt) for inside the ground
Back on the coach for a few more Stellas
Guest ale at Wilkies
Tayef for the way home

Monitoring outside for the people inside:



Me and my lad driving down on saturday morning (daughter and son-in-law not going this time due to her being almost ready to drop). Book into Ramada Watford then train to Wembley. Last two occasions hung around the bar where the coaches drive in, might try somewhere different this time.

Nando's in Wembley for tea then back to hotel. Hopefully celebrate in bar but if anything like last time was so knackered we fell asleep watching MOTD.

Back to Wireland on Sunday in time for the lads return regardless of the result.

Leave Warrington about 6:30 Friday evening and get to my sister's house in Watford about 9:30. Few beers and stay overnight.

Train from Watford Junction to Wembley Central - few beers in Wembley High Street visit the chippy and then watch Wire beat Leeds.

Back to Watford for a few beers whilst watching Watford beat Birmingham on Sky that evening.

Perfect weekend!

[b:33tg3xj5]Me:[/b:33tg3xj5] I'm still reeling from the news that someone is considering watching the 1st and 3rd game on Saturday and NOT watching Warrington play. It's like being in Shea Stadium when the Beatles came to town and deciding to nip out for a fag. [b:33tg3xj5]knockersbumpMKII:[/b:33tg3xj5] Is it FOOK, you're good but you're not THAT good, jesus you wanky fans need to get over yourselves, Beatles at the Shea in '65 was a once in a lifetime opportunity for some (despite the following years performance), you can watch a very good team in primrose & yellow play every week if you really wanted to but comparing it to one of the very best music groups of all time in an iconic stadia such as the shea is overegging your importance, you're not even the best team in SL atm:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_50086.jpg



Train down from Manchester on Saturday morning.
Tube to Wembley.
Few beers in the sun.
Game.
Tube to Notting Hill.
Few beers and a curry with some pals.
Sleep.
Open water swim in the Serpentine (curry choice dependent)
Train back.
Sleep.

Quote: Horatio Yed "Only 5 mins from my house, never been on the tour though, you'll have to let us know what it's like
Will do Yed. I think i'm as giddy about going on ther Potter tour as I am Wembley (I'm a serious HP geek).

Any idea how long it would take to get from Elstree to the London Eye and how much the train / tube will cost ?

Travelling down with 3 others via Coach for the day. Great scenes arriving and seeing that pub on the corner filled with Primrose and Blue singing away.

[quote="Eddie Hemmings said not ":1h9um51j] "Remember last time they were here, the Huddersfield Giants, they lost to a Luke Walsh drop goal. He's only scored four drop goals in his St Helens career has Luke Walsh and each and every one of them have been scored by Luke Walsh"[/quote:1h9um51j]:



Leave home about 5:30 Saturday morning, collecting a mate from Warrington 20 minutes later. Probably grab a coffee from Maccies on Poplars then bomb down the M6 to another mates in Birmingham. Bacon butties and another coffee there before letting the train take the strain from Birmingham to Wembley. Beer, match, beer then back to Birmingham and staying over before driving back home on Sunday.

LOVIN IT':17211.jpg



I was just wondering what the majority of people are doing, each year I have travelled straight home on the coach and always wished I'd stayed over.

This year, I'm getting the train from Picadilly to Euston at 07:15 on the Saturday and returning Sunday morning at 08:10 for a grand total of £36.

And 6 people sharing an apartment has come out at £20 each.

What are you plans?? Excited already!

I have done both. Staying over is overated from my experience. You will just end up leaving early to catch the parade in Warrington the next day (hopefully) making the stay a bit pointless.

Others will have a different angle though I'm sure. That was 2009 and the first silverware I had seen us win, so was a bit surreal after the game, and that night.
