Wellman Posted 31 August 2005 Posted 31 August 2005 It's coming along quite nicely as it goes! It's starting to take shape now and hopefully it should be ready for this years FA Cup final! http://www.wembleystadium.com/brilliantfut...mbley_today.htm
rossporterlc Posted 31 August 2005 Posted 31 August 2005 i am considering buying tickets to the FA cup final just to say i was there
Solihullfox Posted 31 August 2005 Posted 31 August 2005 Flew into Heathrow on Monday and you could see the stadium taking shape and the arch was visible from many miles out , looks really impressive.
SystonFox Posted 31 August 2005 Posted 31 August 2005 hopefully Leicester will be the 1st promoted through the playoffs via New Wembley Stadium. that would be rammed.
Matt Posted 31 August 2005 Posted 31 August 2005 hopefully Leicester will be the 1st promoted through the playoffs via New Wembley Stadium. that would be rammed. We can dream :sleeping: (I'll say yet it again - Happily prove me wrong City! )
Hitesh Posted 1 September 2005 Posted 1 September 2005 We can dream :sleeping: (I'll say yet it again - Happily prove me wrong City! ) The first game wont actually be the FA Cup Final. Its an England youth game because they need to get a certain number of people in the ground to check the health and safety issues etc. So i will try and get tickets for that game because i only want to see the stadium! And i will end up going to the Fa Cup Final anyway because Leicester will be there.
TrickyTrev Posted 1 September 2005 Posted 1 September 2005 I ride past it quite a lot as it is visible from my train in London. It looks brilliant even from miles away, I actually can't wait until it is completed.
CasinoGee Posted 2 September 2005 Posted 2 September 2005 Depending what you call "too late", it's actually ahead of schedule I think.
Hitesh Posted 2 September 2005 Posted 2 September 2005 Depending what you call "too late", it's actually ahead of schedule I think. i think he means that it was meant to be finished by now. The original plans were made about 10 years ago..or the idea was made bout then! They closed it many years ago and they started late. A lot of politics/money/FA messing around and involvement messed it up! Plus the London Olympic bid affected the delay etc.
Alexikokopops Posted 2 September 2005 Posted 2 September 2005 ...And how many years too late? You couldn't resist could ya? It's the only stadium in the world that needs a light on it to warn planes, haw. Well, it will be when it's done. I saw it around March time when I went to my buddy's place in Neasden which is near there, looked pretty SEXEE.
Thracian Posted 2 September 2005 Posted 2 September 2005 Saw it from the London Eye. It is some landmark. Very distinctive.

Plus the London Olympic bid affected the delay etc. The plans for the new local shopping centre in Nuneaton (which opened on Thursday) were made about 10 years ago - Now hmmm 10 years planning on an international state of the art stadium or 10 years on a poxy little (Because I went in it today and it is fairy small) shopping centre...10 years planning for Wembley Stadium is quite a short space of time going on that comparison!
