I disagree (as do the rest other 28 in our party), really dislike the new Wembley. Sterile and soulless. We were in the upper tier and thought the atmosphere came across as poor and as for the atmosphere outside...there isn't one. Still can't wait to go back next year and lift the trophy again

Well, I would take Cardiff back any day. Wembley stadium is large and impressive, the views are good etc, but it does lack a bit of soul. What I miss though, is the pre and post match atmosphere in Cardiff. There's nothing around Wembley really, except a few very, very overcrowded pubs and the odd forecourt. I've now been to CC finals at Old Wembley, New Wembley, Murrayfield, Twickenham and Cardiff, and in all honesty Cardiff is miles ahead as a match-day experience.

Quote: shaun_edwards_cheekbone "Soulless place. No atmosphere inside or outside, no entertainment, no natural assembly point like the old grass banking
and worst of all "Olympic Way". WTF is Olympic Way?
It was my wifes first visit and she loved it, but like people who never went to central park, there's nothing to compare it too.
Lots of space in the seats though was good. Luxury for someone who is 6'3".'"


It has been called "Olympic Way" since it was built in 1948. It is usually called "Wembley Way" but that isn't, strictly speaking, the correct name. So you can't blame the New Wembley development for that one.

Oh well I'll blame Ritchie Mathers instead.
In all seriousness I never knew that.

I have much knowledge.

Almost none of it is actually any use.
