Taking kids to football on my own

Am I mad to take 3 kids age 12, 10 and 7 to the England match on Friday by myself?
We’ve been given tickets and the kids are really excited to go. My husband was meant to be coming but he has broken his foot. I’ve tried everyone but no one is free to come with us. Wes get the train after school to Wembley. It’s about 2 hours there and back, kick off is 8pm so it’s a late finish. None of us have ever been to a football Match before. What does everyone think?

AIBU ITS A BAD IDEA DON'T DO IT
YANBU GO, IT WILL BE FINE

As long as you have plenty of time to get a train back at the end, and the kids will hold hands with each other and not let go in any circumstances, then go for it

No voting option, but - do it! You will regret it if you don’t and will have a great time
