For me it will be a moreorkess the same journey I undertook daily when I worked in Cricklewood, I got off and on the train many times at Willesden Green, Wembley will be the same just with a couple of extra stops bolted on.
Blimey, never thought this thread would get to 100 posts!!
But it's interesting, I tried to see how AI deals with this and the answer is, not great. The Overground from Marylebone - which I too had never heard of - never got a mention. Is this the Chiltern Line service that was mentioned earlier ?
@Covered End I'm not sure I understand your train times from Eltham. That doesnt look right to me. Four an hour but bunched together like that?
But appreciate you considering my "mobility problem". Thankfully its getting better by the day, almost OK but given the choice I'd certainly avoid more steps than I need to. How long has Wembley Stadium existed? I don't recall it in 2019
Ah yes, the steps. Loads of them at Wembley Park tube station.
Eltham trains do run every 15 minutes but only directly to Victoria and Cannon Street. Can change at Lewisham then wait for Charing Cross train (which has busy potential) then tube to Baker Street for tubes to Wembley Park or onto Marylebone. Full circle, personally Eltham to Victoria, tube via Oxford Circus to Marylebone then 9 minute train from there to Wembley Stadium. Very easy from there.
If you go to Wembley Stadium Station you don’t get to do the walk up Wembley Way as you approach the stadium which is a bit of a shame. Might be a decent shout post match though.

But this is what I asked @Covered End about. It's not, apparently, every 15 minutes. It seems to be two in 7 minutes and then a gap of 23 minutes. I have the TFL app now, and can see it for myself , but it's no frigging way to run a railway. And the TFL app, bloody hell...if I ask for Eltham station to Marylebone at 08.55, it proposes a bus to NG and the Bakerloo, or a bus to Woolwich for the ELZ. No mention of taking the train.
It's going to be fun agreeing this with my brother. he has Strong Opinions on these things. Runs in the family I suppose🤣
cafe 7.30 > bnh to london bridge 8.16 > ldn bridge to wembley ( just gonna stay on jub line, for the faff of changing its not worth it as its about 5 mins quicker )

Travelling down from Leeds today but the trains are not looking good. A few cancellations already. Should be fun.
Football supporters travelling to and from Wembley for the Championship play-off final have been warned of delays or cancellations due to a series of train faults.
LNER said it was experiencing "major disruption" to services due to several trains requiring repairs on the East Coast Main Line.
Suggest best to familiarise with some back up routes for the day. That Elizabeth line is a major let down when it fails and you will be lucky to be a useful inter-change to change route. The mainlines to London Bridge/ Charing Cross aren't exactly reliable when they are needed either. So i recommend thinking about alternatives like the DLR, e.g. from Woolwich, and Greenwich should it be needed.

I don't live in Eltham so was unaware that they are (unusually) running direct to Victoria at 21 & 51. In which case I agree with Rock Spectacle. Eltham to Victoria. Victoria Line northbound to Oxford Circus. Bakerloo Line northbound to Marylebone. Marylebone OVERGROUND to Wembley Stadium Station And that is my final answer

If you're already on the Bakerloo line then I'd just stay on it to Wembley Central and go from there.

Yes if you prefer to go another 10 stops as opposed to direct. It's also a lot further to walk from Wembley Central, if like Prague you are recovering from mobility issues. Good idea if you're going to the Spoons.

Wembley Stadium station has been there for ages. I got the train back from there after the 2019 game.
North London, fine, well covered by 4 routes. Getting to North London for a 1pm kick off on a Sunday with lines already shut, seems silly not to think ahead with contingencies.

Some of our fans have rarely been to an "away" game and let's be honest there's plenty that have rarely been to a home game in recent years

There are four different ways to get to Wembley from Baker Street alone.
Anyone who wants to get there will get there.
It's also a lot further to walk from Wembley Central, if like Prague you are recovering from mobility issues.
Good idea if you're going to the Spoons.
