Lots of parking spaces on industrial estate on Second way 5 mins walk from stadium, but usually priced at £20 but also quick and easy to get to and from.

Looking for a couple of coach places but I'd rather hitchhike down than cough up £59, hopefully something more reasonable will crop up.

Sorry, now corrected, it’s second way, just to the right of the stadium on Google maps

We parked in an industrial estate for the Swindon game. A left soon after the N Circular, easy walk to the stadium- and we thought soon out and on our way.
Come back to the car, police blocked the turn right, and the flow out was back to the stadium, right round the trading estates at a crawl and back near to where we parked an hour later. Not again.

Club coach cost is a disgrace. Why haven't we challenged them and shopped around?
Pity its too late for the forum, how can Notts.charge half that price.feel sorry for our fans who want to take the kids. I am taking daughter and 2 granddaughters in car with us.the coach tickets are a RIP off. Disappointed that Crooty and the Board haven't challenged this after all the custom they receive from the club each year.

Looking at hiring an 8-seater minibus/taxi from Manchester. May have room for one more person if anyone is interested.
Do we know where Town fans plan to sup pre-game?

Does anyone know which of the Watford tube stations is the best one for Wembley? Looks to be Watford Junction and another one unless I'm mistaken. I'm looking at heading down the M1 and getting a Watford pre-booked parking spot or the M40 and Ruislip. any Watford wisdom would be great thanks.

Watford underground rather than Junction is much better I think.

I’ll be driving from Ellesmere Port so anyone in the North West/North Wales is welcome to jump in for a bit of petrol money. Will leave about 8. My plan is to drive to Croxley then jump on the tube. Did this for an England game a couple of years ago and it worked well.
I’m in Colwyn Bay and driving alone if you fancy some company! I’d booked parking at Canons Park but not bothered about losing money on that

I’ve seen buses advertised from Clay Cross, Tupton, Clowne, Brampton, Boza, Grassmoor, North Wingfield, New Whitt etc on Facebook pages today.
There’s loads. All seem to be about £40-£45 so Wilfreda are shafting us. Hope we sack them off
