Wemberlee
Yesterday was my second visit to Wembley. Despite the criticisms I think the views of the pitch are good and the transport links work well.

But the facilities are awful. I queued for 40 minutes to buy a drink. The toilets were an offence to public health. And the staff surly and rude.
Not good enough.

Programmes on sale only in the ground at souvenir kiosks with enormous queues. I think all this explains some of the empty seat phenomenon after half time at recent Wembley games - it was a feat to get to the toilet and back in 15 minutes let alone buy any refreshments. It would be interesting to see what would happen if the stadium needed to be evacuated in an emergency. Didn't spoil a great win thoughh!
