I imagine they put up the fencing for the events at Wembley although it’d be good not to have it as the other year was a joke. I remember a side alleyway right next to the pub and people would be jumping over the brick wall into the car park of the Torch, bouncers actually chased them down and there them out!
That might well be the case. It was shit being stood on the street in the freezing cold and not being able to have the craic with the fans gathered outside the Torch like we did for the play-off final. I should be there early enough this time so I'll have a wander up and have a look. If it's fenced off then I'm going elsewhere.
Also, I've tended to find that the closer the off licenses are to the stadium, the higher the prices regardless of which side we're on. The offy on the walk up to the Torch was knocking cans out at £2.50 a pop before the Liverpool game - and as we'd spent a bit of time drinking in Central London beforehand we had little time to go elsewhere - but you can get your beer for half that price if you're prepared to shop further away.
