Just been onto the ruggerexpress site and they are saying that there are NO DIRECT trains to wembley on the saturday due to main line works.

Wheres best,anyone any idea and the cost? cheers

FCFS!!

am driving down to wembley on the day, can anyone recomend somewhere close ish to park for the day?

I was considering parking on the outskirts of london and catching the tube but with 7 people in the car its probably more cost effective to park within walking distance.

PM sent.

Re parking there is no onsite parking, however best thing to do is to use the very cheap park and rides at tube stations. Last year i stopped off at Hillingdon park and ride, which is just off the motorway. tubes trains are every 6 mins and take 20 mins to get to Wembley. It also give the option of stopping off at places like Ickenham and drinking and eating there rather than at Wembley itself which gets overcrowded and over priced. car park info for tubes here www.tfl.gov.uk/roadusers/tubesta ... fault.aspx please note if you book via wembley stadium they charge extra to park eg £5 instead of £1 so best go via TFL website

last year we parked on someone's drive on a residential street about 15-20 mins walk to the stadium,think they charged £20 for the day and it was secure,the people seemed really nice as well too, not sure if anyone would want to look at this option?

Twenty quid?!?

Tell them it's a fiver or you'll spill the beans to the Inland Revenue!!

[£20 for every big event at Wembley - that's a nice little earner.

will they take a 28 seater ivor??

just sent you a P.M Crackerjack

just been looking at comparisons for our official coaches! How come we are paying so much compared to our co tenants? In the coming weeks Town play in Milton keynes and Bristol and the coach for these as £15.50 and £19. Southend was £20! Seems a massive hike for our big day!

Perhaps the coach parking fees are a bit higher for Wembley? Might explain some of the difference at least.

Time to arrange it

i assume when the town busses were orderd it was months in advance, but the Giants had 3 weeks, and had to go to whatever company had the buses available.

i got a 16 seater going down - give us a wave if you see us

I have looked on national rail route planner and it does not mention anything about this.

they don't tell you - you have to board a bus.

A bus from where to where?

Personally speaking it would take something special to make me miss this one

But I would like to know if anyone knows how to get a petition sorted to make the powers that be aware of "possible problems" as I`m not technically PC minded enough

Running a bus as I often do to get Giants/Fartown fans to Cardiff/ big games / playoffs etc as economically as possible I find the Rugby Leagus attitude disappointing

At Warrington for the semis --there WERE concessions for "old fogeys " like me / children and students and that was fine and commendable (Id have paid "full price" if I had to!!)

However - at Wembley --------nothing

On club coaches -----------nothing

People such as Wishy /DG with youngsters (and Ponner and Lel ) have to pay full whack to let there children witness what could (hopefully not!) be a "once in a lifetime" experience
Dammit in my senior years -- its been 56 years since I saw em lift the CUP!!

Ken is pushing the game to youngsters- and that is extremely commendable - but the fact that a youngster has to pay full price at the stadium and on a coach is totally disgusting and negative - in my opinion!!

I also know two OAP`s - who have supported Fartown through thick amd thin - who - in these difficult times- now cannot afford to see them in what could be there last Wembley cup final

and after all that --if there are empty seats - and despite the "balance sheet" looking extremely healthy - to me it sends out the wrong ideals and images

Then--to say --if its a draw --that they`ll do the same "all over again" 10 days later is commercialism to the extreme

But sadly - in my eyes - that is one of the negatives about this "great game"

Teams compete and consider salary caps all season - and that is par for the course

But - come the games no 1 showpiece -- it appears its " milk the fans "-yippee!!

Yes - I fortunately CAN AND WILL afford it -- and many more will make sacrifices to be THERE

But I sincerely believe that in these difficult time and because of this "immoral" pricing structure the powers that be levy - there will be quite a considerable number of fans "young"/ "older" and of limited means from Hudds / Warrington and the teams of RL in general who will miss this great day because there are greater financial priorities in their lives than an expensive (? ) trip to the capitol to watch the final

For there then to be empty seats - at a televised showpiece - I find very very shortsighted and a negative impact on the "advancement" of the sport!!!!

I agree Crackers - i'm still unemployed and on Jobseekers allowance and i am taking my youngest for the day as its his birthay the same day and i promised him if we got to Wembley i would take him as his birthday 'present' o i've got 2 lots of 'adult' prices to pay.

I am seriously struggling to afford it but the day i miss seeing Fartown at Wembley will be the day hell freezes.

but a little help in these hard times especcially for us less fortunate ones wouldn't go amiss.
