The new national stadium

I can't believe nothing has been said here of the issue. After all, have they not decided (again) that Wembley is the preferred location.

I went down to London in the summer and was amazed to find the twin towers still standing when I passed on the train. The pitch may well have been auctioned off as well as other items but Wembley is still there and it decaying. What a complete embarrassent to have our national stadium reduced to a decaying wreck before something is donw about it.

Now, Wembley the preferred site? Er... the only reason that I can see is tradition. Though if it is so traditional then why do the twin towers not remain in the design, the whole point IMO! :mad:

As for Wembley......

-over flowing toilets
-shite facilties
-run down area (it really is minging, do we really want our national stadium in such a dive?)
-in the middle of nowhere
-technically it's not even in bloody London. Look at the address of the stadium, it's in bloomin MIDDLESEX!
- crap transport links (esp. road)

The whole affair is a complete embarrassment to this country. If the other countries can manage why do we have to pussy foot around and behave like such idiots?

We need a national stadium and I'd go for Brum! At least they can actually get arsed to doing something unlike our southern counterparts.

And why are the sports committee and all those nonsence organisations, full of people who wouldn't have a clue what a football is if it hit them in the face?

Barca99, this topic pretty much covers it.

Find the link on this page that gives the URL for the online tour - take a look at the Picture link, it is very impressive.
