I'm driving 5 of us in total
Leaving 1.30 and probably taking M1 (dependant upon traffic reports) M1 at the moment is still pretty chaotic around the MK Dons to Luton junctions due to widening of the Motorway, and you have around 10 miles of contraflow
If not M1 then its M40, M25 round to A1 then down A1 on to Holloway road and park up there.
If it is M1 we will probably stop for cuppa at Watford Gap Services

Leaving Shrewsbury around 3.15pm as earliest I can get away, from work, M54, M6, M1 Should be ok though, parking the car at my brother-in-law's who lives in North London (3 hours from here, with traffic) and says it's only a 20 min tube ride on the piccadilly line from his house to the Emirates

Also, does anyone have any information on local pubs/somewhere to eat?

Similar story for me...but a longer tube journey! Finish work at 5, drive down M4 to Osterley then 45 mins on tube to Arsenal.

leaving about 1 with a view to arriving 4 30 ish, m1 all the way. Parking up about a mile from ground courtesy of the "park on my drive " website, good value for a tenner. Couple of stops on way back to the north east then its up to Edinburgh next day for work with the aid of red bull no doubt!

Leaving Worcester with 4 others at 4.15ish, unfortunately the earliest we could all get off/out. Park up on the outskirts and get the tube in then back later, ignoring the many comments about what a nightmare it is, it's all part of the occasion isn't it! Safe trip all. COYB!

3:15ish from outside Meole school.
M1, M25, A111 to Cockfosters then Tube.
Fingers firmly crossed for a reasonable trip and a great evening out at probably the best stadium in England and one of the biggest clubs in the world.
COYB
