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.

Travelling down Saturday morning at 7ish with Stevo's coaches. Tickets booked behind the sticks. Can't wait.

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.

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.

To be fair I think the parade is over rated. I didn't go to it in 2009 because I was at Reading festival for the weekend so got a train straight from London back to Reading after match and was there 'til the Monday. I did go to it in 2010 because I happened to be in Warrington that day anyway, but it was nothing to write home about.

I'm working on the Sunday this year unless I can swap my shift in which case I'll be at Liverpool V Man City. Either way, no parade.

I appreciate parades are great if you have kids though. Unfortunately we didn't win anything when I was young enough to have been interested in them!

If you're using Elstree & Borehamwood national rail then i'd suggest getting off at West Hampstead NR Stn

You could get off at Hendon and catch the 83 bus, but you'll hit a fair bit off traffic, so go a couple of stations more to West Hampstead then come out of the station.

West Hampstead has 3 different stations (National Rail, Local Overground and Underground) so make sure you get the right one.

Jubilee Line straight to Wembley Park Station.

National Rail, Elstree to W.Hampstead is £7.70 pp Adult return (Pricey because it's not under TFL).
No idea on child ticket (don't have any)

West Hampstead to Wembley Park are different prices depending on cash or oyster or Day travel card

Single fare for adult will be £4.30, if you have an oyster card it will be £1.40 single or get an unlimited Travel Card (make as many tube journeys as you like for the day) £7.70

I would suggest to anyone using public transport to get an Oyster card as it will keep your costs down.

If you really want to keep your costs down Paul get an Oyster card then a 292 bus from Borehamwood to Edgware, then a 79 from Edgeware to Wembley Central total cost per adult for that would only be £4.20 per person for the whole day, as the card is capped to that price, so after you've spent £4.20 every journey in the same day doesn't cost you anything.

leaving the Kings Head at approx 10am on friday then travelling by minibus to the Thistle hotel by Euston station getting there at 4ish then going on the lash around Tottenham Court rd for the rest of the night. sat morning getting the Wire winning togs on then get to Wembley by 11ish dont think the Greyhound will be open as it was boarded up a couple of weeks ago but we will find alternative sources ha ha ha then watch the Mighty Wire stuff the whinos then on the lash again to celebrate returning home in time for the winning parade then back to the Kings Head then onto the Prince of Wales (Star Wars ) to carry on celebrating.

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.
