Where are the glow sticks?

That is a very good question. Perhaps Levy bought some from Mike Ashley at the last minute and they turned out not actually to glow, indeed to suck all light from the vicinity. But you'd have thought that in that case he'd have made use of them anyway.

It's one of the worst stadiums I've been to for atmosphere. Just a terrible design. I was sitting 20 metres from the German fans who were obviously going mental for much of the game, but I could barely hear them. Any noise just dissipates. It's basically a conference centre with football pitch facilities.

Seriously, what are the other options for next year? I would bite MKs hand off about now.

Hell no.

It was like the world's biggest match day thread in the stadium today. I swear our fans will complain about anything. I think I saw one guy have a pop at his pulled pork hotdog at one point.

Lots of people doesn't necessarily mean a good atmosphere.

The hotdogs were terrible. Arguably could have a better job than MS on the right wing though.

They should knock it down and rebuild it. It's just a Norman Foster vanity project in concrete and glass. No thought went in to the fan experience or acoustics, just how much money it could generate. It's just a "look how big my dick is!" Stadium but it's got no soul or personality.

I absolutely hate Wembley as it is now. They ripped the heart and soul out of that wonderful old stadium. It used to be an amazing atmosphere. Such a shame

 

[dannythomas]

Isn't it partly a question of our pressing game being more difficult to implement on the bigger Wembley pitch ?

 

[Hoops]

I think we should scrap the season at Wembley and go to Milton Keynes. It probably easier for me to get to south London from Milton Keynes anyway. Wembley will be awful with 50k in

Fuck doing that journey every other week n'all. Journey back from the lane is actually much better.

 

[beats1]

service to uxbridge from wembley way was a fucking joke,

There was a fast train which misses out a couple of stops before wembley but they decide to kick off spurs fans at harrow

Then there were 3 trains to watford between every train to uxbridge

Battle for Thursday night football next Wembley game

 

[Hoops]

Im glad I sold my tickets on Sunday. Had a feeling it was gonna be shit after Monaco. wembley that is

 

[Gassin's finest]

Actually I'd take Europa League, means we get some last European nights at the Lane.

 

[bubble07]

Wembley is 500cm x 200cm bigger

With a bit of smart play that difference in pitch size is a pathetic excuse

Although Leverkusens pitch is same size as wembley

 

[TaoistMonkey]

I think it turned out really well...

Shame about the entrance music starting up half way through, but here's a stadium full of Spurs fans responding to Leverkusen's drums with a big rendition of Oh When the Spurs...

There's me there, to the right...

This may have been covered already but how can last nights attendance be a record when it was lower than the Monaco game?

 

[dagraham]

Not looking forward to playing every game at Wembley next season

It's going to be dire, but unfortunately with the club going back on their word that there would be a ST amnesty I face the choice of renewing my ST or going to the back of the queue for when the new stadium opens.

It was higher than Monaco by a few hundred wasn't it?

Couldn't give a shit though really. Would rather play at WHL with less than 30,000 there.
