Any ideas on coach price for the big day and how and where to book ?

maybe Wasps will take pity on us and allow the use of car park C like the old days?? we will probably use 35/40 coaches and I'm pretty sure they wont all fit in White St, plus where do you park for the whole day in the centre?

This is very disappointing.

Not that I'm affected as I'm going by train the night before, but will be interesting to see how it's justified!

Is it not likely that the hire charge is greater? I would guess we usually have 1 or 2 official coaches going to games. From what someone said to me today the initial booking for this is 30, will probably have to source from multiple companies.

I can get one for 525 quid. I think parking is £100. So £625 plus what ever they'll pay the steward (probably a free ticket). No problem with them making money, they're a business but it's a bit excessive. Why would anyone pay that? For those that haven't already booked a cheap train it's not like it's a big deal to organise travel. Pay for fuel, £2 to park at Canons Park or Stanmore and £3.40 return on the Jubilee. Could take 3 mate's too! Another option is the many other coaches being ran. Jimbo from Twist N Shout is charging £15. There are at least two others charging slightly more too.

£10 when we went to Old Trafford. What did they put on then, 50 + coaches?

Would imagine we already have a contract with Shaws (as we did then) that covers a minimum cost (normal games don't tend to differ too much). For a big game, yes they'd have to call in favours from partner companies as Harry must only have a handful of coaches himself now a days, but surely it's not completely unplanned?

I booked coach on my phone for my wife son and Dad through the Ricoh parking site. £16 return pick up and drop off in Leamington though the pick up point is TBC.

I suspect Wembley charge a high price for parking coaches in the car park.

£65 according to the CCFC site.
Parking for supporters and supporters coaches can be purchased here, or 0208 900 2405. Coach parking is charged at £65 per coach and car parking is £30 per car.

Bit harsh on Susi. What's she done to deserve being starved?

That is expensive for the car parking nothing like fleecing the fan.

As I've said above for most it makes no sense to do that either. Pay £2 too park at Stanmore or Canons Park (or free in one of the unrestricted streets nearby) and pay £3.00 (£1.50 for kids) return on the tube. Even if there's 5 in your car and you paid to park it'd be a max of £17. You'd get home earlier after the game too.

I always used Stanmore when going into London but for this we are going on the coach as we are in a group of 14

I meant that as an alternative to paying the £30 to park at Wembley.
 
Just to keep everyone in the loop, we have just started filling up our 19th coach. They go from Coventry, Bedworth, Nuneaton, Leamington & Rugby. Get them from ccfcwembley.com if you're still looking for travel :)

What Time they setting off and what time do you expect to be at Wembley? The offal coaches are leaving at 8:30am so gives plenty of time to go for a beer when you get there. The extra tenner is small change if it allows drinking time before game, no good if you're getting there at 1pm.
