Wembley pitch

[JULES]

The stadium as a whole is a disgrace.

is it chuff, its better than the millennium and any other footy stadium in the world, suggest you look up the word disgrace in the OED! as for the pitch, well an saturday I was counting the players slips and there were a lot, I got to 16 I think before the ale really kicked in.

they should have done it like the emirates pitch: 30% artificial.

It cost £800m.

The pitch is shite; makes for shite football.

The TV gantry viewing angles are shite; makes for shite TV viewing

25,000 of the seats are corporate season tickets; makes for shite ticket numbers per club

And aesthetically, it lacks the elegance of the Emirates despite costing twice as much.

According to some nerd on talkshite to rectify the pitch they need upto 7 weeks to do it but wemberlee is booked virtually every other day for events because the FA are desperate to get it paid off, so it could be a while.

Might be a bit radical but next season why not use neutral grounds for the FA semis and somewhere like the emirates for the play offs?

I agree Arsenals ground pisses all over it; shame their fans don't appriciate it.

Oh how i laugh at the shit pitch at Wembley, i seem to recall the FA slagging off the MS pitch when the cup finals were down here, Wembley is much much worse.
I quite like the new Wembley stadium but it's not the best sited stadium in the world, much prefer the MS as you can fall out of the pub and pretty much straight into the ground, there are better stadiums than the MS but can't think of many that are as well situated.
