Tottenham are reportedly considering buying the new Wembley stadium.

With the cost of rebuilding the stadium spiralling towards the £1billion mark, The Guardian claims that Spurs could launch their audacious bid if the Football Association are left in serious financial difficulty.


The staff at KFC Portslade could have built the f***ing thing in half the time and at less than a third of the cost of this disaster. Why is this country so fugging incompetent! :angry:

It is a f***ing joke. This is a massively important job in footballing terms and they should have employed the best of the best to do it not just a load of knobs who kust sit there and smoke spliffs everday if the papers are to believed! :angry:

Makes me wonder if we're going to be ready to stage the olympics in 2012.

The firm that are building Wembley are Australian.

They also built the whole of the Olympic village/stadia etc. and finished two years early!!

Perhaps the Aussie builders do not go for a fry up, have a 10 minute dump, read the sun and drink a gallon of tea and say "Just nipping out to get some supplies"!

Ken Bates hired a company with little-to-no experience with construction in this country. They had no established relationships or agreements with any of their suppliers or vendors (crucial in a job this size) and surprise surprise it has gone tits up.

The whole thing has been a shambles during construction and will be an expensive burden and rip-off of ordinary fans for years to come. :nono:

They should have kept the old stadium there - as a museum piece and concert venue, maybe also incorporating development like they're doing at Highbury - then built a shiny new one on this scale elsewhere, on a brownfield site somewhere. And kept Ken "luxury hotel and casino" Bates well out of it.

The stadium there before was a turdhole, so we just build another bloated, expensive diamond anus on its festeringly agreeable top.
Wembley is a horrible place to go and i can remember nothing i've freely enjoyed there.
Tottenham is a foul scrotal mess too.

Hmmm.
