FA Cup - Wycombe Away

For use when the ticket news is announced.


Meanwhile, any parking tips ? The official car park looks like it'll be a right bugger to get out of.

Park as far away from the ground as possible, it's a nightmare if you park too close.

The train station is nowhere near the ground. The ground itself seems to appear in the middle of an industrial estate.

Looks about a 30 minute walk from High Wycombe town centre, so I'll probably just park up there

Buses 32 and 48 go near to the ground from the town centre if you fancy slumming it. Get off at the Hour Glass pub and it's about a five minute walk from there.

maybe villa fans drinking in the town could share taxis

The ground is in effect at the end of a nearly one mile long cul de sac. One way in and one way out for everybody.
If you don't want the traffic jam afterwards, then just walk. The fresh air and exercise will do you all good.

A number of options UK but none involve driving directly.

Go with Gloucestershire supporters lot for a start. Drive home from Cheltenham later or take a cheap hotel if you fancy a few beers. They will stop in Stokenchurch on the way before and after.

Do a deal with John on reduced pricing for the coach element, and let them ferry you to and from the car at the pub in Stokenchurch. You can have one and piss off when you like after.

Proclaim yourself a worshipper at the alter of Dallaglio and demand entrance to the ground free as well as his parking spot so you can feel like your great hero (an egg chasing gag if you are getting lost).

You can train it but ground is not really walkable. It would also involve buses and an out of town parking spot.

I can swap details with John Holder for you if it would assist. The only downside is that you would be repeatedly asked about Pete Wilkes. A forester who hasn't been around for years, had a nose like playing days Paul Merson and a love of fun to match!
