Leonisco Posted 7 March 2007 Posted 7 March 2007 Wembley to be handed over to FA Builders Multiplex could hand over the keys to the new Wembley Stadium as early as Friday, BBC Sport understands. BBC Sports News Correspondent James Pearce says building work is almost complete and the FA Cup final is almost certain to be at Wembley on 19 May. If the Football Association does not receive the keys to the £757m stadium on Friday, it should happen on Monday. The first of two test events needed to get a safety certificate will then be a community day for 60,000 on 17 March. The handover of the keys is more than a year late, having originally been scheduled for January 2006. The second test event will be an England Under 21 match a week after the community event, and unless there are unforeseen problems, a safety certificate will be awarded in time for the FA Cup final to take place.

Geo V Posted 7 March 2007 Posted 7 March 2007 Cardiff is a great stadium and playing the National team playing elsewhere has been no bad thing as loads of Northerners hated the Southerners for Wembley for some reason but its time football came home in this country and its about bloody time we had our own stadium again. I still think England should play the odd friendly in the North, maybe one every season at least??

(West Ham joke, not gay joke) :laugh: No matter what thread I read on FoxesTalk with Fez in it, there's always bound to be something stupid/witty that makes me laugh. Quite a bit. Impressive work Fez. As for the Wembley stadium being given to the FA - it's about fooking time I'd gotten sick of waiting!! Bloody ridiculous it was!!
