Do we have any idea when the ko time is likely to be confirmed? Must be imminent surely? Would be handy to know when the announcement will be so I can keep an eye out as I want to get parking booked as soon after the announcement as I can.
I've taken a flyer on this and already booked my parking on Sunday 23rd from 12pm to 7pm which should cover all options, but I expect game will k/o at approx 4.30pm as London Marathon on in the morning. Theres no risk anyway as most of the parkonmydrive type sites let you cancel with full refund, so I suggest you get it sorted now rather than wait

I have done the same via JustPark. Cancellation cost is £1, I think I can stretch to that if needed!

7pm doesn’t leave much time and if there’s extra time and penalties may not even finish til 7.30? And that’s assuming it’s 4.30ko with it being the London Marathon earlier in the day it could be 5.30 or even 6.30 so I’m holding fire for now

its fine, in my experience the owner will only have just you booked for that day and they dont usually care if you stay later than that booked (once k/o is confirmed I will message them anyway and ask to alter hours to say 1pm - 8pm. Its never been a problem in the past, these arent NCPs

I just booked on www.justpark.com on Sunday 23, there's still quite a lot or decent lower priced options and a lot that are ridiculously high.....
rn you can pick a quieter street just off road you plan to come in on... Mines 11m walk.
Streetview too so you can see the road, plus it's free cancellation up to 24 hours before the event, only the booking charge of about £1 is lost.

Just paid £17.69 for 1pm to 9pm and will cost a quid to cancel upto 1 day before......soon as its formerly announced there's going to be a scramble and the cheaper places will evaporate. Worth a quid to do it today imho.

If they've still got the same system then the nearby pubs are split between Brighton and United. In 2019 City got the pubs in Harrow and Brighton the ones nearer Wembley on the other side, including the Green Man. If it was based on the team's supposed geography then it will be the same.

Of course there'll be loads of Cockney / Essex Reds around so Baker St might be a free for all.

Ah, so it's to do with what end you're at then rather then where fans travel from.

For City we drove up and stayed overnight, me with my mum in North London but my mate in a hotel very near Harrow-on-the-Hill station. Every pub in Harrow was City only.
