Just looking you could get a mint hotel with pool and breakfast for that in the centre still.
Just don’t want be on trains at all with the little ones, I’ve still a driveway booked a 20 min walk away and a hotel just outside London , was worried would get stuck in traffic but the space on just park has a lot of reviews saying in and out with no hassle, so hoping that’s true

I would stick with that. Even if it takes an extra 30 minutes from the congestion is still better than spending £300 on a travelodge <laugh>
 
Wembley Park is always best for arriving, it's close but mainly because you get to walk down Wembley Way to the stadium. I've always gone back from Wembley Central which is 20 minutes walk but the queues are less (but still substantial so there'll probably be a 10-15 minute wait there). I'd be interested if anyone has tried getting back from Wembley Park and how long it took to get to the platform?

I've seen this mentioned on a fan site as well, but it's nonsense. Google Map shows it as a 40 minute walk from our end of the ground.
Its not 40 minutes at all. Ive done it several times. And its far quicker than the queue on Wembley way. Proven by the fact I got back to Wembley Park, on the tube, before someone I was with in another stand had even got to the station down Wembley way.

My original plan was to travel down on the Friday and book one of these buses but my cousin is on Holiday and not back till late Friday and he wasn't sure if he was going to Wembley (he is now) so I'd have had to book a Hotel.
Hotel in Stevenage with parking included. Stay there Friday night. Saturday morning head into London on train at say 11am, go into Covent Garden or Traf Square. Get metropolitan line tube to Wembley Park at 2.30pm. Arrive for 3 ish. Meet up with a mate, watch game. After game, head back into West-End. If we've won have a few beers, then back to Stevenage on train for night #2, then drive home on Sunday.
If the game is changed to midweek forget all of the above...Cancel hotel asap and try to get on Tiger Travel or hitch a lift. That's going to be a right ball ache. £500 lighter in pocket...I do wonder at times if its all worth it! That's a definite Yes, if we've won.

Much of a muchness to me in terms of costs but I'm beginning to wish I'd done it in 2 stages.

However,as you say,no complaints once we wipe the floor with them :emoticon-0105-wink:

I'll be looking for you to use as a compass Jim,morally and directionally :emoticon-0148-yes:
 
Are there no coach parks anymore B&S?:emoticon-0104-surpr
I don't know....The car park as was, has gone for the buildings which have been put on there in the last 4/5 years...It's a few years since I was last at Wembley. Maybe that huge business unit area, that seemed as if it was due for the knackers yard is now parking. I honestly don't know.

Just googled it and apparently there's a huge coach park called 'pink parking' or words to that effect.
 
Looks like the pink park is at our end of the ground. Near crystal club.

How far does the no street drinking zone stretch around Wembley. Was gonna get some tins from the Lidl.

Can you not sit down on Wembley way and drink them ?
