Newcastle are going to Wembley and whether they have a ticket or not, tens of thousands of Geordies will be going too. Hotels surrounding the stadium have been booked up by confident fans since the quarter-finals and there were reports that Trainline suffered a surge in demand when the final whistle blew last night.
So if you’re heading down to the capital, at the very least to soak up the atmosphere around the stadium, you’d best get ahead on your planning. Thankfully, London is the most accessible city in the UK and it won’t take you long, or cost you much, to get there.
Some firms may provide dedicated services to take fans from Newcastle right to Wembley’s doorstep. However, expect the announcements on these to be at least a few days away as bosses iron out the creases on those.
