phespirit's review of Old Wembley Stadium

Only had the privilege of visiting the old Wembley Stadium once, and that was to see England draw nil-nil with Bulgaria in a dour Euro 2000 qualifier. If being brutally honest, it's hard to give a glowing report about any aspect of it, but now the place has been pulled down it's all about rose-tinted nostalgia. Wembley was always more than the sum of its parts.

Location

Notoriously diabolical to reach.

View

Not particularly comfortable; some obstructed views.

Facilities

Toilet facilities provided gentlemen with an opportunity to queue at length before standing in, and contributing to, an ocean of piss.

Food & Drink

Overpriced garbage, wasn't it? Not like that now, of course.

Police & Stewards

Couldn't fault the stewards, but the policing was a bit much.

Atmosphere

Atmosphere never seems great for England's home fixtures, so a goalless draw was hardly likely to stoke up an inferno.
