Is it just me or does anyone else detest the place? Its just there to rip the fans off IMO, £5 for a hotdog £6 for a beer, . even if we manage to make it there why can't we have the final at a big ground nearer to both sets of fans I.e villa park or old Trafford? I suspect the f.a are still trying to pay for the dump.

That dump is probably the greatest stadium in the world.

Good stadium when full or nearly full. Crap when under 40,000.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

No atmosphere though eh m8?  I've been in the allianz to see Bayern v Dortmund and Wembley will never beat that ever. Its a soulless cash cow designed from start to finish to rip the fan off,  the only one worse is the emirates at £80 a game.

Dont like it, built in a stupid place and as you walk up Wembley way it looks like a 60s built concrete multistory car park/office block ala being torn down in redevelopments in cities all round the country. Insides alright but not a touch on millenium stadium in Cardiff.

Well this is a strange 1!!! I love Wembley stadium. Why wouldnt i? Its my national stadium and the place of cup finals. Agreed for medeocre England qualifiers and low ttended games the atmosphere is $hite but thats hardly the stadiums fault is it? Also, the Emirates is quite possibly the best ground ive ever been to and the atmosphere was superb! Ans that includes Kamp Nou! Too many exclamation marks here i am just astounded!!!

They do that anyway I would like it better if we turn up for once and make a game of it lol.
The stadium is magnificent love the concourse but miss the twin towers

If  and after yesterday it's a big IF we get there even against Brizzle it will be well short of capacity a decent sized midland ground would do say Villa or Wolves.

Emirates for me was incredible atmosphere too! Probably the best stadium/atmosphere ive been too was Holland V Serbia in world cup 06 in the zentralstadion in leipzig, it was jaw dropping

For me Wembley is a impressive place.Its a lot better than it use to be especially with all the development done around it.Think though food prices are a rip off but thats at most venues not just wembley


One life,one love .
