Friday to Sunday for us, staying in Murcott Oxfordshire.

If you have very, very, very deep pockets try the Nut Tree Inn.

I’ve no idea near the ground but parking at Stanmore and getting the tube from there is worth considering.

The official car park was spot on for us last year. Think it was 15 quid. Right next to the stadium, and didn't have much trouble getting away after the game.

Edit: Fuck me, just checked and it's £40 for this game. Sure it wasn't that last year, but I might be wrong.

Aye Baker Street for me but I won't be mincing at boxpark or fanzones before kick off when there's a fully air conditioned airport lounge with tap bars, pork shops and gin bars available.

Any suitcase shops ?

Gotta sort logistics with The General & LL Legend but sounds like a plan mate 😁

 

Must be worth meeting up to see The Dwarf.....

We were originally going to have a day on the coast or on the Bury choo choo but I’m now crashing your BBQ if ostrich is on offer. Had one from Aldi the other week and it was a game changer.

Anyone stopping over and planning on watching the boxing got any recommendations? We are staying City nr Liverpool St.

Just off Harrow road is usually decent. Come off the north circular and about a mile up that road. Just before you get to the Arch pub where it meets Wembley high street there’s loads of residential streets on your left. At the end of each street there’s usually some lad with a parking sign. They have an agreement with all the residents to use their off street parking and they take you down and show you which drive to park on. I use a particular house all the time when I’m down for the England games and it’s a piece of piss and safe. It’s no more than 5 mins walk to the ground. It’s on the Oxford side this year though.. 

happy to give you some further info if needed and usually £20
