A few of us going down in the car, want to get to the ground for at least 12.30 how long approx do we need to allow, whats the traffic going to like as it is a bank holiday.

just sett off at 7am. the drive is fun, goign past all the cars decorated up. you wont go past many shudds fans i guess though, alwasy great when you go past the opposition fans in thier cars, give em a honk and a couple of finger salutes. plenty good banter in the service stations to should you decide to stop off

We're setting off early, 7-8 I think.

Thanks 7 am is what i had in mind.

Google Maps says 196 miles for the shortest route and 3 hours 21 mins.



Add a lot onto that time just for Birmingham alone.

brimingham is fine on a saturday morning. leave here at 7am, u hit brum at 8am and fly straight through. even if it was snagged, just use the toll, its always empty.

Are you thinking of parking at wembley or stoping earlier and catching the train to wembley.

parking charge is a bit steep at nearly £27 a car and you have to prebook.

similar to hj residents parking zones everywhere.

Toll road...

Travel to Rugby quite often and its not that bad going through Birmingham, the toll signs always claim theres congestion, but its only around the m5 junction. just a ploy to get you to use the toll.

Went last year and drove to Hillingdon (3hrs exactly) and then got tube to wembley as its on the same line (25 mins). There is loads of parking just round corner from station and no restrictions. Going to try stanmore this year, it says it has a massive car park 450+ spaces and is only 11 mins from wembley on tube. Google says its 3hrs 5 mins.

leave at 7/7.30 sat morning and you'll be there by half 11 easily,on a clear run you can do it in under 3 hours.

Good choice may give that a wirl.
