What’s a Wembley?And *poof*... Just like that, it's like Wembley never happened.
It was this wonderful old football stadium, with art deco facades, towers with flags flying... a lost, proud symbol of England and it's Empire.What’s a Wembley?
Couldn’t agree more.It was this wonderful old football stadium, with art deco facades, towers with flags flying... a lost, proud symbol of England and it's Empire.
Now it's a corporate wasteland, identity lost to the unstoppable machine of free market capitalism and brand loyalty as mass slavery, similar to this once great land's slow and inexorable demise into irrelevance.
A shit hole basically.

Spot on. Drives me mad how the media still try and act like players and teams are "relishing the opportunity to play at Wembley". It's not really Wembley, it's not the same "hallowed turf", it's just a generic lifeless stadium with no history. It's like the backup stadiums on Pro Evo that are just called "Municipal Stadium" etc. If I were e.g. a German team I'd be more bothered about playing at Old Trafford, Anfield etc. than at this new Wembley bollocks
@JCRD's sex life? Yeah, sounds pretty sad...That's brought a tear to my eye watching on my lunch break. Going to watch The Lane Finale ceremony prior to the opening one when I get home. Today is a proud day to be a Spurs fan.

Also, it helps that I’ve been looking at stadium cams every day for two years now. No wonder it looks so fucking familiar. My youngest turns 2 next month and I don’t even know her that well.I think the most incredible part about it is that when I see photos of NWHL it already looks and feels like home, as if we've been playing there for years. If anything, the videos and images of the old WHL look stranger, despite going so many times and all of the great memories we had there.
It feels like the old stadium never died, it just changed. There's nothing alien about the 'new' ground, it just feels like home.
