    might be worth checking opening times because most pubs round there don’t open until 11/12ish rather than for breakfast

    Sorry, yes the pub opens at 11am …

    … I’m meeting a few people at 10am but they’re going to collect friends from Heathrow.

    Was just going to do the Saturday night but **** it, doing the Friday too. Been spoiled with Wembley visits the last few years but you never know when we’ll be back. Another memory I’ll get with my grandad, really really looking forward to next week. If we win, bloody hell, probably be the best weekend of my life

    That’s always he problem. Told my lot last time (various groups travelling separately) to get there and was a great meeting point and just cut all the what ifs out. Just do it.

    Yeah, unlike all the pubs around Wembley <laugh>

    It was excellent last time, Wycombe, and easy to get served.

    They're happy to reserve areas inside for us, for those who want to eat, and outside as well.

    The appeal, for me, are the tourists and shoppers, who are genuinely interested in our team ...

    ... much better than being crammed in a 'football pub' with ear blasting music and plastic 'glasses'.

    I'd be wary about taking kids into some of the pubs around the stations or Wembley ...

    ... especially with Sheff Utd coming down with their contingent of idiots.

    FFS. I’m as far from the far end as I could be with sight problems, and there’s loads left now. Ridiculous it’s taken them that long and the comms were so poor

    Rumours are thr fxck up was Ticketmaster rather than the club, then due to the 'selling' being via Wembley (in background) it was nightmare to sort as required Wembley to do so, bit agree comms poor........fingers crossed all season ticket holders who want one get one, appreciate they wont have what they want like you, which is crap.....only positive is its last gane, although the biggest, with the contract the nuggets got us into so we should finally see a resolve to the mess next season id like to think, unreal the work to shape the club KLD was left with

    Yeah I’m certain it was. The ticket master booking system is a disgrace, but the club should’ve communicated it much better imo. So many people without season tickets complaining about their ticket being taken off them! Idiots

    Well the people complaining tickets took off them shouldn't come as a shock, no doubt number or majority of these are the ones who rarely go, do nothing but dig at the club, manager, players, performance etc etc.....the joys of the internet & forums
