By suggesting that the venue should be preserved for high quality matches not "Chelsea v Sunderland" the suggestion seemed to be that such a match up would belittle the venue. It's a football stadium, Chelsea want to play football there, don't think there's much more to it.
Since we were there 12 months before them don't think I need to ask them lol. The excitement was about being in the Cup final, "going to Wembley" was chanted because we were in a cup final. After all, we'd played Sheffield United there a few weeks prior, I doubt we were getting giddy about the seats and food on offer.

Apologies, I meant cup finals, internationals etc. If those clubs reach the final, good on them.
You don't think the championship playoff is more exciting being played at Wembley rather than Carrow Road or the Riverside (last year for instance)? I don't think it makes as much difference to you or I but I know some supporters from smaller clubs (like Villa fans) that have loved the chance to play in front of a packed crowd there.
Yep, it's the context of the game not the venue that matters.
Fair enough, each to their own
I'm just going to dislike Chelsea for 3 seasons
Ok well that's not my point lol, the context of the game makes cup finals special, not Wembley.
Good point, maybe villa Park will get matches?
Not really phased by this as either way Chelsea are playing their home league games at a "neutral" venue for 3 (?) seasons. They will probably know the ground better than most by end but it will be a disadvantage to them on the whole imo.
That's the point of difference though. Before this, Wembley hasn't been whored out.
Are Chelsea going to change their ticket prices for Wembley? No way you can fill it at current prices.Join the rest of them hey
ahh cool. Why only 50k? isn't the capacity 90k?Our prices have been frozen for 5 years.
We will be setting the limit at 50k for Wembley(thats all their allowed to add the extra games) so we'll have no probs filling it
ahh cool. Why only 50k? isn't the capacity 90k?
Not having a dig btw, probs only 5-10 teams in the world could fill that stadium every week
