looks the dogs mate
Is there a better stadium in world? Surely not
some of the stats are unreal
* With 90,000 seats the new Wembley is the largest association football stadium in the world with every seat under cover, none of which will have obstructed views.
* Costing £750 million, it is the most expensive stadium ever built.
* The arch is 133 metres above the level of the external concourse.
* The stadium roof rises to 52 metres above the pitch. This compares to the 35 metre tall Twin Towers of the old stadium.
* The new Wembley has a circumference of 1 km.
* The London Eye could fit between the top of the arch and the pitch.
* The new roof is over 11 acres. Four acres are moveable.
* The rows of seating, if placed end to end, stretch 54 kilometres.
* 4,000 separate piles form the foundations of the new stadium. The deepest of these is 35 metres.
* There are 35 miles of heavy-duty power cables in the stadium.
* With a span of 315 metres, the arch is the longest single span roof structure in the world.
* With a diameter of 7.4 metres the arch is wide enough for a Channel Tunnel train to run through.
* 90,000m³ of concrete and 23,000 tons of steel are being used in the construction of the new stadium.
* The roof alone weights almost 7,000 tons.
* At peak construction there are 2,000+ people working on the site.
* The new pitch is 4 metres lower than the previous pitch.
* Each of the two giant screens in new stadium is the size of 600 domestic television sets.
* The new Wembley encloses 4,000,000 m³ (cubic metres) inside its walls and under its roof. This is the equivalent of 25,000 double decker buses or 7 billion pints of milk.
* The total length of the escalators is the same as a 400 metre running track (i.e. 400 metres).
* There are 2,618 toilets - estimated by WNSL to be more than any other stadium in the world.
* There is more leg room in every seat in the new Wembley Stadium than there was in the Royal Box of the old stadium.
I can't wait no need for us civilised people to travel to Cardiff to watch the beautiful game
