matthefish2002 Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Went all the five times to the Old Wembley in the early 1990's. Still cant quite get over people in there 30s with kids, mortgages and responsible job were too young to go then. Were did the time go? Went to Cardiff in 2005 and really enjoyed it. Never been to the new one. Did cross my mind to go to the new Wembley to watch an England game but never got around to it. Could never go to watch another club game like I know some of my friends have. Got a feeling there will be some things about the day I wont enjoy like the traffic, the prices and the probable corporate plastic feel to the place but overall I am really looking forward to it. Be a special day and one to remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markg Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Never went to the old Wembley and like the poster earlier only been to the new Wembley to see muse. We came out saying we would love to see Wednesday play there but didn't imagine it would be happening any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPT, Cup finals and semi finals it was only a matter of time really before we played there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadzilla Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 I was a bit too young in 93 and always thought it was cheating to go without The Wednesday. Went to Cardiff but that doesn't count Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wednesdaywizard Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Went to the semi final in 93 when I was 10. Went to see Metallica and then the Foo Fighters at the 'new' Wembley but I've never been to see a game of football since 93. Have had the opportunity but wanted to save myself for when SWFC got there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gparrish Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Been for an England game, up in the gods good view, but miles away from the pitch. Been for NFL games and sat in the middle tier, fantastic view, I think its a pretty good stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSlicer Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Vaguely remember the early nineties but was too young to go. Been to the new one a few times to see England (bloody awful). Always said would love to see Wednesday here. Didn't think it would be this soon. The thought of a packed Wembley. A proper wall off blue and white. Noise upto a painful noise. It felt like an incredible thought. Now it's here I'm punching myself. But when I sit down and think about it my stomach starts churning. Hope the nerves don't get the better of me on he day. Can. Not. Wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scram Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Awesome stadium - a real Cathedral of football and world renowned as the home of football A full Wembley hosting a massive game with 2 sets of distinct partisan fans (ie not wearing the same colour) will be one of the best football experiences anywhere in the world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mirodo Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 First time watching Wednesday, third time overall for me. First was Blackpool v Yeovil in the league 1 playoffs as a neutral just after New Wembley opened - got cheap seats up in the gods just so we could say we'd been. Second time was in the posh seats with my Burnley-supporting family when they beat the Pigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
