Fuckin 'ell, I can't even train it direct on the day due to works - got to get a bus north to th'east midlands parkway first

Reet so it's either stop down there a couple of nights OR an unusual option - drive in the wrong direction and stop at me mam's in Daisy Hill saturday and then coach it down. Wonder if there's a cheap deal at Deveres sunday neet...

I wonder if its got WIFI ?

it is about a 4 hour journey as well, so you wont get to the ground that early, for me a lot of the day is about getting to wembley early rather than sitting on a train.

How would you like me to enhance your journey, Micky.

runcorn to euston return ?56.20 for me and lad with railcard. Also booked 2 nights in a hotel and can cancel by giving 24 hrs notice so still undecided which way for me. Big downside is train will be full of liverpool fans going to the emirates

How would you like me to enhance your journey, Micky.

 

Sneak a few beers on would be a start!

Reminds me of the train on the Sherpa Van Trophy video, Dave Ding Dong Do's very excited at the number of carriages it has.

 

Then he gets excited at a lass with legs out on the train

I've booked Stockport via Crewe as well but only just heard about this no alcohol rule (strangely it wasn't mentioned on the train website). Since when can us adults manage to work, pay for luxuries like tickets and transport to Wembley and then still be treated like childish cunts who shouldn't be allowed to drink beer? Since when did being a football fan mean we had our rights taken away from us?

 

Just for that I'm going to stay sober but act pissed anyway.

I'm fairly sure they won't be testing every single bottle of vodka and orange that goes on the train!

It mentions the Manc & Wiggin trains bound for Euston having an alcohol ban on that Sunday, But it will be a station search and not a train search.Can you imagine the uproar in Glasgow for blokes going to London with bottles of bucky getting took off them on the same train ?

2 litre bottle of pop, pour out 1 litre and replace with litre of intoxicating liquor. pop lid back on, jobs a good un!?

 

tbh i dismissed the club train when i heard in was dry, and there will be stewards in each carriage cracking the whip! fuck that. might as well go on coach for half the price. that train wont be a virgin pendolino 2hr job either!

That train's going to the 1958 Cup Final - isn't it?

Air conditioned train = windows open

That trains shocking

 

Be lucky if it gets out bolton

 

 

"Arrive in comfort and style "

 

Righto

Mini bus with a 40:1 can/human ratio is the way forward.
