Top class.
"Two complaints, including one from an Arsenal supporter, were made to the advertising regulator, on 25 and 28 October."

Mmnah. This predictable Spurs fiasco is no skin off my nose.
It is very, very funny though.

To be fair, after all this, it's going to look MEGA isn't it.
In the grand scheme I could wait (oh, and we KNOW about waiting) a little bit longer for something that good.

A different kind of pasty
Reminds me of the wonderful "Please stay off the pitch at the final whistle so Sam and the lads can do a lap of honour"
All a bit silly really. Tottenham are the only London team in the CL this season &, the last time i checked at least, Wembley Stadium was in London.
Obviously if someone wants to split hairs then, yeah, it is not at the new ground.
Then again, it is Woolwich supporters we are talking about here.Let them have their fun.

Yes, but the whole advert was based on seeing Champions League games at the new stadium, NOT at Wembley. Thats hardly splitting hairs, there was no mention of fans having to yomp up at the national stadium for it. Nobody wanted to do that (as the swathes of empty seats there would attest).
Spurs attempted a snidey smug little dig at Arsenal and Chelsea, and have ended up with egg all over their faces. And they richly deserve it.

Spurs could very likely be out of the CL before January, which is the earliest estimate for the WHL’s completion, let alone the first match to be played there (Personally dont think the first match at a brand new untested stadium should be part of a major transnational tournament). The fact an Arsenal fan made the complaint just makes it funny.

They will have to have trial events to get the safety certificate, so if Spurs are still in the CL it won't be the first match there.

Bet you all of the hair on the sole of my foot that it was Piers Morgan whingeing.
Egg on their faces? Hardly.
But if us moving I to our new stadium a few months late makes you happy, fill your boots.
It's Woolwich mate. Complaining to the advertising authority about a non-event makes them feel good about themselves.

I think it is amusing that opposition fans thinks anyone gives a toss. The ad was aimed at tourists. If us playing at Wembley keeps the tourists away I'm all for it.
As for Woolwich, how those nomads (Dial Square, Woolwich Arsenal, attempted merger with Fulham, Highbury and Ashburton Grove) have the cheek to dig anyone out about where they play is beyond me.
What is amusing is all the opposition fans who think they are so so funny (yawn) will be gagging for tickets to our new place when we move in.
Enjoy.
