The Poolie Bunker

If you're going to the new Wem-ber-ley for a game as has been mentioned, be warned:

Burger and Chips - 7quid (no chips on their own).
Cheeseburger - 5 quid
Hotdog - 4 quid
Crisps - 1.50
Mars Bar - 90p
Small Coke - 2.20
Bottled Carlsberg - 4 quid

So eat at Tesco's down the road at supermarket prices and drink in their car park, they'll take everything off you at the entrances, food, drink, flags, owt, so you have to buy everything inside.

I suppose they have to make a dent in 757 million snodgers ((c)Mutley) eh??

I doubt if i'll have the pleasure of going anytime soon

Be more positive Sarf...........



















You definitely won't be going this season with Darlow.

fairly standard prices these days unfortunately. went to bristol carling academy last night and paid 3.50 for a plastic carling! wembley arena charged us 4 quid for the same when we saw muse there.in both cases there were mega queues to pay these prices.

another big rip off just like the stadium itself and the way the olympics is going they have underestimated the true cost of that event too. the prestige is great of haivng such things but the cost is a bloody joke

You cant even take in your own flags? Are they having a laugh?

Just sort of tie it round you so it looks like a special coat...then put your coat over it, then it looks like you've got a jacket and a coat. Simple.

Yeah according to someone on the 442 forums who went to the Under 21's match on Saturday

He said they dont let you take your own flags into the ground, But once beyond the turnstiles, They sell flags to you

Shocking really

Doesn't sound right according to this:

[img]The reason that the national stadium was built a hundred miles from the nearest English European Cup-winning club was the name 'Wembley', and all it stands for with the over-11s. Birmingham would have been a more sensible venue but football and rugby fans have no wish to be sensible. A quick scan of the clubs on the St George flags that decorated the stadium on Saturday revealed the true source of hardcore England support. Carshalton Athletic, Darlington, Rugby Town, Bideford. You won't remember the jams on the North Circular when you are telling your children about that 'I was there' day at Wembley.[/img]

I think it meant flags on sticks like you'd buy from the vendors outside. Remember Sunderland? The stewards were snapping the sticks off the kids flags in the queues. Even the most officious steward couldn't object to a piece of cloth.
