Smyth_18 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Now, to the most important part. Where are we parking ourselves from 8am on Monday 27th May? Last time our bus from Heanor arrived 5 mins before kick off. Not 1 pint was consumed by myself. I'm getting the earliest train this time. What pubs do we usually take over?

Stive Pesley Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I heard that there were loads of engineering works that weekend on the midland mainline? Bus replacements and stuff - not checked the details, but if you plan to go by train - have a look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bus replacements and stuff - not checked the details, but if you plan to go by train - have a look I find that hard to believe. With the high likelihood of large clubs from the midlands needing to use the midland mainline into the capital on the Bank Holiday weekend and play-off finals, there is simply no way our highly reliable and incredibly well-run National Rail would even dream of running engineering works that weekend.

admira Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I booked a bank holiday campsite near Wembley six months ago ‘just in case’. Guess that’s paid off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostyn6 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 find a non-drinker, drive to Stanmore, get train to Kilburn and drink there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstand Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Looking at the revised timetable the buses are for Corby only departures and arrivals. Trains from Derby on this timetable should be OK but as always DYOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetness34 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I really enjoyed drinking in Baker Street at the globe in 2007, there were loads of Derby Fans there but also some West Brom fans. In 2014 we went to the Green Man (I think it was called) but seeing as we're on the opposite side of the stadium this time around, that will be Villa Fans. I'll go with the flow, as long as there's plenty of Derby Fans there I don't care where it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I’ll be trying to get a train around about 8 down, always Covent Garden for drinking on a day like this.... let’s just hope it’s a better result than last time we went to Wembley and did all this!
