seats.

I've got a whole rant inside me about the unnecessary loud music they play in every possible gap, including for 30 mins after final hooter went. But I'd better sober up and think more rationally before writing it. DW guilty too, including homecoming. Turn music up over crowd noise and all clap in time. Let the fans make the noise! We're certainly capable of it! Ah... it's turns out I just did have a rant. Sorry. Is it just me?? Loved the weekend though!!!

They need to fill that middle tier before sticking people in the God's. Is that the "team England corporate" bit or something? I am sure the atmosphere would be better if the stadium is not full but there are no huge gaps and that creates one.

Give me the old wembley of the late 80s, now that did generate an atmosphere. This was my first visit to "the new" wembley, there are great views from wherever you sit but the atmosphere (for me) was pretty lame.

I absolutely love the new wembley, it was my 1st visit and I think the stadium itself is awesome.

However I was disappointed with the atmosphere on Saturday, even though I was sat at the Wigan end, I could here far more noise coming from the Leeds end !!!

Thought it was very poor maybe that was because i was on the upper tier the ground level seats may have been better. Seeing loads of empty seats doesnt help , anyway we won thats all that matters!!!

You will never beat standing for atmosphere, the nearest you will get is if a few thousands seats in the middle are deemed 'singing' seats so those of a more vocal persuasion can sit together and turn the volume up.
The amount of neutrals making a weekend of it is also on the decline. A lot of those neutrals came from the lower league clubs who had a dream, that dream has been taken away from us by the RFL and events such as the CC final will suffer as a consequence.
Personally Cardiff was a much better location for the CC final. A Rugby city with the craic on the doorstep of the stadium

the first thing i noticed was on the old stadium there was terracing outside all around the ground where supporters all converged with bands playing around the place, no atmosphere at all outside the new stadium. also i really missed the marching bands we had in the old stadium, i thought the entertainment was rubbish. nowhere near the atmosphere of the old stadium inside, but having the middle tier empty doesn't help, and the music during the lap of honour just drowns out the crowd noise.

I hate it. I hated it when I went in 2007 and I hated it this time round. It's poor. They need to sort out the joke that is club wembley too.

Rubbish. Totally underwhelmed. Old Trafford > (New) Wembley

Will never beat 1985 for atmosphere, officially 98 thousand but it's thought many hundreds scaled the walls, bribed the Wembley officials to get in that day. Wigan took well over 40,000 that day and was that packed you were unable to stand still as you were moved along in the crush like a wave. Still for me, the noisiest atmosphere to this day.
