Good Points
Architecture interesting.
Bad Points
Wembley is a dump and the stadium looks like its just been dropped into this dump.
General Comments
Been to see Oasis at Wembley. The band were superb. The stadium a disgrace. For as far as the eye could see boring concrete and derelict land. It looks like the money ran out and they all walked away leaving the job unfinished. Yes the architecture is stunning but thats what modern stadiums are and should be. The infrastructure though at Wembley is appalling. Overpriced catering vans and nowhere to sit while you wait for your event. Still the dreadful transport links and scandalously high parking charges ( £25 !!). Badly finished concrete extends as far as the eye can see without any attempt at aesthetic interlude. Awful. And a shame. Should have gone to Birmingham.
