    Taking my 9 yearold son who gets bored very easily. I notice that Wembley are very strict with what you take into the ground (food, drink, rucksacks etc). To keep him occupied I'm going to have to take stuff for the coach - gameboy, comics, drinks etc. I would have preferred to take them to the ground with me, but suspect they may be confiscated.

    I haven't travelled on club coaches before. Do you get the same coach (and same seats) going back, and can you safely leave stuff on the coach (i suspect i would stick the gameboy in my pocket!).


    TIA

    You will be on the same coach coming back but I wouldn't leave anything valuable on it. Your sarnies should be alright though - as long as I'm not on your coach! :D

    For Wembley last time you could park in the Grove St car park and all the coaches were boarded behind the East stand. However you didn't have a coach number, just queued for the next available coach that pulled up, filled up and set off. Went to Cardiff with Globe, so don't know how they did it that time.

    We also took 44 official coaches to Liverpool

    And they were all behind the East Stand. Only the bottom part of the Grove St car park was in use that day because of the beam back though.
