From what I gather its simply the seat with a very good view, there is no extra's after that.'"
Padded seat and own concourse (as some others have said and Ijust looked at the Wembley website)

| We had club Wembley seats for the Leeds v Pogs final that I believe ended 50 to nil to Leeds.
Concourse had its own drinks and cheapish food outlets if you can call them that.
Artists were plying their musical traits which was quite different.
Be warned, a sit down burger and chips with a FREE drink came in at over £100, yes that's right over £100, ouch.
Take your camera and spot the celebrity and sports personalty.
At the end of the match near the exit escalators we sat and drank beers for a couple of hours and again teams, officials etc passed us by.
Enjoy it.

Burger and chips £100? I presume that wasn't 1 portion?

| £293 gets you a 3 course meal, a programme plus a 'branded' souvenir gift, a drink on arrival, a cheeseboard at full-time (WTF!) and a visit by past players, all in an executive box.
Sounds quite the bargain!
Opening the club wembley will make a big difference for sure, the 'ring of indifference' just looks horrible.

Not doubting any of what you say, but with it being on public sake rather than for corporate sponsors, I am thinking the concourses and celebs will be a bit toned down. An assumption of course.

Been to Headingley, Belle Vue and Langtree on corporate tables, they all do a post game cheeseboard.
Looking forward to Club Wembley, purely for the vantage point.

| Last week National coaches were doing a Wembley package with £40 club Wembley seats included.

I've always paid for higher value seats for a decent view of the game (aside from last year when we sat with the plebs ) I don't do exec boxes, having mixed at various events from both sides of the coin it's really not for me and as a former professional I'm bloody fussy about food.
Honestly it's cheaper/better to nip over to Pied a Terre, a 1/2 mile walk from Gt.Portland street tube which is then only three stops to Wembley Park.
We've been there before, first when we won a prize through Sainsbury's and loved it so much we go as a treat when we go into 'town'(it's only 35 mins on the train to KX for us)
As Michelin starred restaurants go I think it's great value, the staff are really relaxed (so you don't feel intimidated if you've never been to places like that before)
You could have a pre match 3 course lunch + cheeseboard for £54 incl 1/2 bottl of wine, £37.50 without wine/cheese.
Compare that to the package I described and even with the top priced seat at £90 you're effectively paying £130 for a programme, a souvenir and to possibly see some ex-players whilst having a meal that is not going to be anywhere close to the standard at the place I mentioned.
That's just me though, i know what I like, I just see it as better for cheaper.

I think we are at crossed wires here. £40 I have paid for a club Wembley seat. I am happy with that.

On that concourse is the 'exclusive' dining room for club wembley members then.
Just have to be fortunate to pass any celebs on the day.
I really should of got Ben Thalers picture and signature as he passed us when leaving.....maybe not.
