I bought a programme at Club Wembley section and nothing else. I was tempted by the champagne but a half bottle was £33 (didn't note the vintage) and they didn't sell it by the glass, which I'm sure they did last time when I went to an England game.

To avoid beef at yet. another. wembley. thread. I thought i'd put my main criticism on this one.

The noise in the hour leading up to kick off. For christs sake, it as absolutely unrelenting adverts, yelling tannoy guys, "Reading are you ready" etc,etc. Literally not a second's silence. As a result, at the time you would expect the atmosphere to be building and the singing starting there was none as it was impossible to be heard over the sound system.

Don't they pretty much do this at the Mad Stad these days too though?

Perhaps not for an hour but it's still way OTT.

Have to agree with this. At one point it was almost painful.
Impossible to have conversation with those around and any singing that was going on was drowned out.

I was definitely drunk and did nearly break my leg when Millsy scored so who knows. I was wearing a dark blue jacket with a gh3y hand splint on to protect my broken hand from careless hooligans.
