hi we have decided to go down in the car to wembley whats everyone else who are driving down doing? wheres the best place to park etc etc only sencible replies please but i doubt ill only get sencible replies lol

Watford is as good a place as anywhere - I'll be staying at my parents the night before the match.

Trains from Watford Junction to Wembley Central only take about 10-15 minutes and it's easy to get back to the M1 after.

Only downside is that Watford are playing Leeds United the same day!!!!

Last year we drove to Uxbridge and got the tube in. Very easy to get in and out of.

Thought you wasnt a "true fan"?

park at Ruislip tube station - on the right line for Wembley

cost a gob smacking £1 on a Saturday for the whole day........bloody robbing sods



if you fancy lunch go the 2 for 1 pub at the golf course in Ruislip think its open from 11am called the Fairways.

I've parked at the above over 20 times and never had a issue.

hope this helps.......plus there is another 4 or 5 tube stations around Ruislip that you could park on - but i'd say this is the best as has around 50 spaces and at wkends usually not very busy.

Jesus Leeds all over London town

I drove down last year & parked at a school nearby - you can see the arch from the car park & it takes about 10 minutes to walk to Wembley Way from there. Was pricey at £25 but for security, access & peace of mind was happy to pay that - especially as for 4 of us you'd be looking at similar for bus or tube in from where-ever you parked in an unsecure carpark.

If you go onto the Wembley website you will find links from the parking section of it to places like that. You put your car registration in & pay online then your space is guarenteed.

Personally I've always used Stanmore. Right off the motorway, massive car park, right onto the tube. Think it takes about 15 - 20 minutes to Wembley on the Jubilee line.

Places to park
Brent Cross Shopping centre (free) catch bus 182 £2 per person or black cab rank £10
Perivale tube station car park (£1 a day) catch bus 297 towards Willesden £2 per person

I've parked here twice, M6, M42, M40 (stop at warwick services for a wee!).

Getting away after was good, not many on the tube.

Enjoy, some of us can't go this time

I was waiting for that reply Ady, I knew that was your route!

Might take you a little longer in a Go Kart!

Is there a day that you would prefer to be dedicated to yourself and other true fans who have attended every game this year? We'll have a big party and everything...

We parked in a residential area near Stanmore tube station and got the tube straight down to Wembley. Took 15 minutes tops on the tube. There were plenty of places to park and it was free.

Will be doing the same again this year.

Stanmore every time.

Stanmore tube station just off the motorway a massive car park, the tube takes about 15 minutes to Wembley park station on the Jubilee line then straight out on Wembley way. Getting away after is good as just of motorway and fast tube link you will be on the motorway before the traffic that parked at Wembley easily. We did it last year one tip is if it says full on the station car park don’t believe it run round with your car as it’s a con to try and make you pay to park at the back of flats the far side of the station.

couple of time used beaconsfield rail station. juction 3 m40 15 mins on train to wembley stadium station.

big car park in front of station and back on m40 10 mins after getting off train

my honnest opinion. unless youe staying over in a b&b. don't do it as a day trip. I was fooked and i was on the coach.

Some people don't have that option

I agree, we got a B&B for £55 with free parking.

Rather than the hassle of paying for parking, the cost and pain in the getting there & getting back and then fighting traffic, it aint worth it, plus IF we win you miss the after match celebrations in London.

Overall for the sake of say an extra tenner, you may aswell stay over.

I can recommend Brent Cross. The Bus Station is part of the Carpark and is a main terminus for all over London.

I've done Stanmore before and is fine. You do have to be careful parking around the residential area. I've seen people get towed when in wrong place.

Green Man pub, right above Wembley is good. On the Hilton Hotel side. They charge a bit less than the official car park and there is a lot of room outside for beers and food. They usually get a bottle bar going so you don't have to queue inside. Have been doing barbi as well recently.
......only down side is it is a VERY big hill to treck back up to get to your car.

Just do the official car park now as my dad doesn't like the walk. Think it's about £27 to park but you are feet from the entrance and it's a good get away too.

If people are using the Stanmore(Jubilee line) option i'd go down to the next station (Canons Park) use the Longcrofte road estate (it has parking restriction but only Mon-Fri) only an extra 5 minutes by car from Stanmore.

A day trip is nothing. I do it all the time driving up to the in-laws in Glasgow, and that's further than driving down to London. Once you get used to it, it doesn't affect you.

i do it for home games, it's a piece of pee
