I am off to Wembley a week on Sunday to watch Morecambe in the Conference play off final. There is no car parking near the ground. One suggestion is to park at Stanmore tube station which is only 4 stops from Wembley and supposedly has a large car park.
Does anyone have any knowledge of Stanmore or any other ideas for parking.

There may be a small car park at the station - there's definitely one in the middle of Stanmore - but it will cost a bit to park there. There's quite a bit of street parking there so you should be OK.
Make sure you check the Transport for London site just in case they are digging the line up or something - they usually do it at the most inappropriate times.
And good luck - I look forward to Brentford getting 6 easy points next season!

Here is the penalty from Monday in case you have not seen it

He was typical of a lot of the referees in the Conference. A fussy bastard who booked 2 or 3 for back chatting but then bottled it when the big decision came along.Quote:

Parking is not a problem now, we decided to go with the coach option. I reckon setting off at 6.30 we will be there with time to spare. Anyone know of any decent pubs within walking distance of Wembley?
Looks like we could be heavily outnumbered. As of mid day today Exeter have sold 16,000 tickets.:eek:
Come on the bay
Im not a fan just a fellow lancastrian, or are you guys cumbria.

Ticket sales up to Saturday night. Exeter 21,000 Morecambe 8,000
Excitement is building on the Costa del Morecambe. Up to Thursday night 12,000 tickets had been sold up here and 26,000 by Exeter. So with a few late sales and neutrals there should be a decent crowd.
If anyone sees a convoy of 50 Fraser Eagle coaches chugging down the motorway i will be on coach no.7. With prices of £8 for a burger meal and £4.50 a pint at the stadium i think we will be taking our own butties and finding a pub near the ground for a few drinks before the match.
Anyway prices at Wembley is something Swiss Toni neednt worry about for at least another 12 months:D
Well done Morecambe.
Apparently it was a good game too, In complete contrast to the deadly dull FA Cup final yesterday:cool:
What a day. Amazing scenes at 6.00 yesterday morning in Morecambe as the convoy of cars and coaches set off. Norton Caines services was taken over by thousands of Shrimps fans. Passed time on the rest of the journey giving the finger to Leicester Tossers fans on their way to Twickenham. Excellent seats right behind the goals.
Even i got a bit emotional thinking about my 83 year old dad watching the match on TV at home, he first took me to Christie Park when i was 6 in the days of the old Lancashire Combination. Turned out i neednt have bothered because he couldnt bear to watch the last few minutes.
To top it all off i had a £2 bet on Morecambe to win 2-1 at 10 to 1
Well done Morecambe!! :)

I was just being fair and congratulating the other team. I'm sure on the day the best team won......or not.
To be honest there was nothing between the teams on Sunday. As is often the case on these occasions one mistake or piece of magic can settle the game. Luckily this time a Danny Carlton wonder strike won it for us.Quote:
