You could be sitting on the roof at Wembley and still have a good view.

Fair's fair, much as I hate the place they did a great job on the sightlines.

Not if you are low down (first 4 rows) and have a cameraman fucker with his bouncy fucking camera in front of you, like we did at the Chelsea semi.

We were on the back row of Block 536 for the semi and the view was brilliant.

Got three tickets this morning in Block 120. Unfortunately they are for the Capital Summertime Ball.

Does the email confirmation give your Row and seat number? Mine didn't.

I was able to buy mine online at 2pm and was all done in five minutes.

I did look at moving behind the goal but in the end I decided to stay in block 126

Also booked the Red Car Park (ie the freaky multistory). Yellow Parking is only for buses and minibuses this time

Positioning all seats so they face the centre spot makes a hell of a difference, even if you're standing up.
The toilets can't cope with a football crowd who have been on the pop beforehand, but I can't really fault the facilities there otherwise. I hate the Club Wembley tier though, and the outside with all that glass is just ugly, more like an airport. Horrible.
As run down as it became it's still sad to not be greeted by the sight of the twin towers.

Got tickets near where we sat for the Semi-Final, so the lucky seats obviously mean that we'll win the Cup.

I thought I was elligible to get a ticket today but I forgot I've only attended 3 rounds of the cup and not the required 4.  Pain in the arse.

You can get it in two days time, it's not that big a hassle is it?
