I prefer the walk to the tube personally so I can stop and have a pint. so it’s not that bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've only ever been to concerts at these stadiums. When I went to Spurs the trains were on strike but the last train would have left before the concert had finished and the walk to the underground is more like 30 mins, I'm OK as I'm able to walk that, not everybody is though... and then I've still got to get home to Leicester Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidncohen 18 Posted May 14, 2023 I was at Wembley today for the women's FA Cup Final. Early on, not long after the gates opened, they showed a 100 Years of Wembley film on the 2 big screens. This featured various clips from the many different types of events held at Wembley over the years. Included, albeit flashing by very quickly were two monochrome clips of speedway at Wembley. One featuring a close up of two or three riders riding close together, and the other of a rider riding down what looked like the back straight. Hard to say what year but it looked to me like 50's or 60's. It was nice to see speedway get a mention, although how many people in the stadium would have known what it was, especially with many children attending, is a moot point. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
REVNGO 4 Posted May 17, 2023 I’d love to see speedway back in the capital 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
