I’m not sure how familiar you are with visual disabilities but where you sit depends on what you can see. Moving seats for my mum to somewhere cheaper means she probably won’t be able to see the game. So no, it’s not that simple a choice |

The proper piss take is the increase in disabled prices, almost doubled on last season.
Sadly this is the cost of moving the away fans, building work needs to be paid for and the club saw an opportunity to increase prices as a result.
Disgusting behaviour from the club, but wouldn’t expect anything else now we’re back in the greed league |

Reply | 5 Things About Wembley
at 22:53 29 May 2024
1. The Warrington hotel is a cracking pub, they filmed some of the sweeney there and the bit out the front was the perfect sun trap to drink pre game
2. I now know where Noel Gallagher lives in London.
3. I now know what winning a competitive final at Wembley feels like and f*cking hell do I want more of that
4. Wembley Central is as much a 15minute walk as the skates are relevant
5. As much as I despise noddy music the celebrations at the end were immense
6. Drinking pints of White Russian at 3am is a truly awful idea when you’re in your 40s |

All of our lot said it almost the moment we walked out of Wembley. This season has been hands down one of my favourites in years, the championship sh*ts on the premier league from a massive height for competitiveness, atmosphere, away games and just generally the things I enjoy about football.
Plus I’ve not had to put up with the boring plastic c*nts at work trying to talk to me about “their” team which they only ever see clapping at a tv.
Don’t get me wrong there’s a few things im looking forward too, more London games, two Liverpool and Manchester games and job security for the staff, but give me the championship over the premier league every week as a match going fan |

Said this elsewhere but today just felt different, special even. The majority of my life I’ve seen Saints lose finals, or fall at the last in important games, but not today, today we were class
One of the things that’s concerned me about us has been the mentality, I’ve been convinced of the quality but doubted the winning mentality of the players and manager when it mattered. Today proved me wrong, and f*ck me was I happy to be proved wrong.
Also that’s probably the first game I’ve been too that means something at Wembley (and Cardiff) where the fans also turned up with the reaction a day out wasn’t enough. I really felt a drive from our support that made it more like a normal away than a “Wembley day out”
Was noticeable to me too that I saw so many generations of families I knew today and a few old Saints lads who’ve not been in donkeys, stuff like that makes you understand why we do it, it’s never been anything to do with the football really.
Ii honestly f*cking love my home city and the mushes in it, and feel proud as both about the team and fans tonight. |

I begrudge queueing for 20mins to pay the best part of a tenner for the worst possible pint in a plastic pot, and if it rains the garden is a mudslide |

Genuinely don’t understand why anyone would go to the green man of their own choice, up there as one of the worst pubs in the county |

Warwick avenue you're right, was multi tasking and wrote the wrong word. Clifton is great, as is the prince albert, warwick arms and Warrington hotel.
Doubt they'll be heaving too as Leeds will drink round kings x, plus they'll be cheaper than the god awful £10 pint served in plastic glasses round wembley. |

if you're doing that route again then i can highly recommend maida vale/little venice for pubs, we're planning on drinking round windsor avenue tube which is only a few stops down from wembley and has some superb pubs (including a couple that are in listed buildings) |

The only way out i see now is a "super league", let the c*nts have it, have the money clubs break away and take the plastic nonces with them.
They can then watch their harlem globetrotters playing around the world and we can have our game back |

Serious answer for you (not that you're interested)
Personally i'd be more than happy staying down, i despise what the top flight of english football has become, it's sterile, greedy, fixed and unless you're owned by a country or backed by legions of oversesas fans you don't have a hope in hell.
Success is survival, or if you're lucky a season in Europe, the outcome of that success is you're shredded by the teams with money and you're sent back down anyway.
You may get "lucky" and stagnate, but stagnation is sh*t too, the away games are dull, the atmosphere is rubbish everywhere, and ticket prices rise a stupid amount year on year with normal people priced out and replaced by day trippers.
Then you add in the tv coverage, games constantly moved, stupid kick off times to placate overseas "fans", patronising pundits etc. and it's a horrendous experience.
Staying down means new grounds, a derby game, a more competitive league and better atmosphere's. Also there's the added bonus that you win more games and most of the clubs you go to are made up of people from that place (also in my experience the fans in the championship are more knowledgeable about the game too).
But.. And it's a big but
Not going up puts people's jobs at risk, damages the local economy, leads long term to issues for the club with finances and means it's harder to keep better players and the academy would probably be affected too.
So from a personal perspective i prefer staying down, but from a club, city and people perspective it's worse |

Reading to Paddington is the best route to be honest, you can get the bakerloo from paddington to wembley central from there if you want to go straight to the ground, or you can have a few beers around paddington which has much better pubs |
