    I went and parking is a f**king nightmare

    best place is harrow on the hill large shopping centre and only 2 stops from wembley on underground- but if like me you cant find the fu*king thing outside wembley ground itself ( opposite green car park )is a small social club we parked there ( ten quid) but because noone else parked near ground was away straight after game and back in barnsley for 10:30.</p>

    </p>

    bit of advice dont ask any helpful plods where to park- their reply to me was ' a carr park'</p>

    then we wonder why all police get a bad name</p>

    Tip.

    A coach goes from outside the Outpost, give Hoggies a ring and check out if they have any places left. I was in an ideal place for the games at Old Trafford but know a few people who go with Hoggies.

    Parking is bad as they only open the stadiums car park 3 hours before kick off and I’ve heard about people moaning about Public Transport. Just remember they will be 90000 people all trying to get home come the end of the game so delays are to be expected.

    DON'T try and park in Harrow Shopping Centre

    </p>

    Its shut for a start. Best place to park for a quick getaway is Stanmore Tube Station- not far off M1 and a tube direct to ground.</p>

    You could park at Ikea as the other poster said, but if you do expect a hell of a long wait to get out.</p>

    I'd definitely recommend parking at Stanmore tube station.
    It's dead easy to find, just off the M1 (if I can find it, anyone can!!), only a couple of quid to park, and a tube direct to Wembley - result!!

    Not sure as I've never needed to park there

    But Stanmore is easy to find from the M1, best to print of directions.</p>

    Like all tube stations it will be easy to find and signposted well.</p>
