    Another route for Sunday is to stay on the train at London Bridge and get off at Farringdon. It's a very easy transit point for the Metropolitan Line to Wembley Park.

    I see Wembley central station is closed Sunday meaning more than likely long delays with ques getting the tube post match, my flight back is 8.20 from Gatwick ,thinking now I might have to leave before the full time whistle

    Got the return journey for £10 a few weeks back. Checked a few mins ago it was £20.20 so fair play with what you told me !!

    Just waiting to board Aer Lingus 8.10pm LGW. Made it handy after the game watching penalties & getting out of stadium no issue.

    London Transport & Gatwick Express didn’t let me down.

    Good to hear, nothing worse that having a tight return hanging over you all game.

    Found London very easy to get around, tapped my debit card and only came about 25€ for the day which wasn’t bad considering I had to get the train to and from Gatwick

    Forgot how rough the day trips are from Galway but yesterday was a nice reminder, London was very easy to get around and the line for the tube back into the city after the game moved surprisingly quickly, I really should have been practicing over the summer for running through the airport to catch a bus :oops:

    Anyone see the video doing the rounds of city fans attacking Pool fans on the tube? Hope nobody was caught up in it.

    Was there any other trouble?
