When did it become a thing that the away fans get off before the trophy is awarded at the cup final?

When football is so stratified and stagnant that the fans are used to it.

Plus British transport is shabbite because all the overpriced fares for sub par service goes abroad to subsidise travel for other transport services. Thanks Maggie T.

National stadium should be in the centre of the nation - Birmingham or Sheffield. Not the money collecting, get it all Londinium

It was brilliant when Wembley was being rebuilt and big/national games moved around.
Crap stadium as well. Was watching the "Attack on Wembley' doc the other day, fella saying it's the best stadium in the country. Not even the best in London.
 
Well, Man City and Man U had never met in a cup final until last year (when City won). This year Man U manged to win, despite finishing the season 31 points behind City. It highlights what a bunch of losers we are - 3 cup finals, 3 semi finals and 1 quarter final against our local rivals since colour TV became a thing and we managed to lose them all. The club should hang it's collective head (even lower) in shame!

I sat upper tier there twice for our semi finals against Utd and that lot. Horrible seats and no space for knees. They literally crammed as many seats into the footprint as possible. Some of the facilities looked worn in 09 and it was only about 3 years old at that point.

I was at Fawley Hill near Henley last week, at a vintage rally at the McAlpine family Estate (as in the construction firm).

The posts below, with the crowns atop - were from the twin towers, when the place had history and gravitas.

Yeah, the old one had its problems but it was 'Wembley'. New ones just a pizza shilling corporate bin lid in a rubbish location. Crap.
 
Rubbish that.
city needed to score about 10 - 15 minutes before they did. The alvarez chance.
low block percentage stuff, with enough pace on the break and accidents waiting to happen which did. What a damp squib.
