The Pre/Post Wembley thread

The torch! And crock of gold is further to the right as you look at the pic

 

Tell Debbie , I said Hi. I saw Her on Look North on their feature of Hull City's win at Derby, t'other week.

 

Ha ha will do!

 

If any are in doubt of an easy route into Wembley then I suggest High Wycombe, on the same line is Beaconsfield and Gerrards Cross which are closer but hotels will be more money and less availability, it only takes 20 minutes from Wycombe and is just junc3/4 off the M40. Also more go eastbound into London after the game and may have to wait for places to get on a tube, you won't get this problem so much westbound to Wycombe

Safe journeys!

 

Is that a direct rail link.
Ive done Stanmore but can imagine it being chokka block

 

I did Cannon Park last time, which is the next one down the Jubilee line, got parked down a side street OK, and reasonable to get out.

 

Yes, no changes. There's one that stops a couple of times and takes 20 mins and one that stops a a few more

 

I used Beaconsfield last time and it was full of well to do Arsenal fans. That won't be the case this time. 2 hr drive from the Midlands and 20 mins on the train to the stadium.

 

train times, 06.43 Limoges to Paris, metro across Paris, arrive 12.39 St. Pancras, leave St. Pancras Sun 08.19 Sunday, to Paris, change, arrive Limoges 16.54. "only" 201 Euros return, plus hotel, parking at Limoges, food and beer money! It can be done from France!

This is our preferred route. Works a treat. Our kid driving. Overnight in High Wycombe Premier Inn, few beers, a ruby. Steady ride home, Bowie on the CD.

 

If you want a curry Danzak Zone is well decent, 20% off through justeat, but I think takeaway/delivery only, there's two witherspoons in Wycombe, The Star and one next to Sainsburys

 

Thanks, we used Wetherspoons for breakfast when we played Arsenal. Not sure which curry house it was but it was quite posh and very good.

 

Is there any info available on which pubs are designated to us yet?

 

Yeah there's a pub designated to us in High Wycombe called the Silver Cod

Maybe this one, supposed to be decent:

Just checked and it was the Bombay Palace. 6 of us in City shirts slightly pissed but no trouble. Had a nice meal and loads of Cobra.

 

It's easy to get around London on the tube. It would be great if all those that are getting there early and/or staying over could meet up and get a hull city party atmosphere going. It doesn't matter where, just somewhere better than cans poured into plastic glasses around wembley. Besides wembley doesn't get going until a couple of hours before kick off. Instead of doing what we all did last time spread out everywhere, let's decide on a place and claim it as Hull south for the afternoon.

 

The torch or crystal club

 

Moore spice was ok but the bouncers where a bit over the top with letting you get in & out if it's a warm day!

 

I'm not talking about a bar near Wembley, if we get enough people involved we could take over an area of London. Sunderland fans drank Covent Garden dry and had a great time when they went. Look on YouTube, they packed the place out. We can go to those bars you mentioned before kick off. But why not start somewhere else first. We are hoping to be in London for 12 and would be great to go somewhere that was packed with Hull City fans before we head on to Wembley

 

Yeah but Sunderland did that on
The night before! People want to get near the ground on match day so they're there! I won't get to London while late Friday! So I'll be looking at getting to Wembley early and head straight to the torch
