Don't let facts get in the way of a good conspiracy and don't forget the Arse-Chelsea one only happened because one of the other semi-finalists was a small London team
Don't let your own inferiority complex cloud your judgement. The guys I know who have Club Wembley tickets are also long term season ticket holders at the clubs they support, including a couple who are Spurs.
The fact is that the best seats at Wembley are on the Club level. Most of the people who have them are football fans who have done well for themselves.
Edit: plus most of the Club Wembley seats don't come with a suite.... they access on to a concourse where there are a mix of corporate entertainment areas/restaurants, but also some bar/food service areas that are only slightly different from those on the regular levels.

To be fair the act of preordering of drinks isn't a big deal, I sat in the Paxton Upper as a change for the Stevenage game and saw it being offered. Plenty of people miss the end of the first half, or start of the next at WHL to buy or finish their beer because the service is so slow at half time.

I would much prefer Sunday but id rather saturday than not playing in an FA Cup semi final.
However i would rather 4pm on the saturday and not 2pm. More drinking time and fun.

Have they stated a particular reason why Mark?
All I could think of was maybe the CL semis are on the Weds, but as they have havent played the quarter-final yet I would think that would be a non-starter.

Especially as the 15th April is the anniversary date of Hillsborough

This is why itll be the sunday if we get through...
Nobody said they were 'great' fans. I'm saying they're mostly normal fans.
Forget the corporate sections, you'll see the same thing just before and after half time in the concourses behind the standard seats in all four stands at White Hart Lane every week. Or how about the people who start leaving before the end whatever the score, so that they don't get caught in traffic?
From the comment about 'suites' I can only assume you don't know what the facilities are actually like.

Suites, corporate entertainment, bars, you know what I was getting at.
There is a massive difference between those club wembley "supporters" and most other football fans. You're right about people leaving early at all games, but you will not see a huge, vacant section of seats 15 minutes into the second half at most grounds like you see in the middle of the lower tier at Wembley at every game. For your information, I've sat directly next to one the club Wembley sections on more than one occasion. They seem like your typical prawn sandwich phalanx.
Completely disagree on that part. All of the guys I know who have Club Wembley seats are also regular season ticket holders at the clubs they follows, including a large number at Spurs. Most of the people they invite have more than a passing interest too. Knowing the layout at Wembley quite well, unless having a large chip on your shoulder makes you eligible for the disabled section then you probably weren't close enough to make much of a judgement.

I only know Wembley Nou from watching on TV, and it is strangely awe-inspiring and not awe-inspiring at the same time.
I see the huge stands, the 90k+ capacity, the way the pitch is like an amphitheatre with 4 sides...it's incredible.
And yet...and yet...something just isn't right. I thought that as matches clocked up I'd warm to it. But it just hasn't happened. For some weird reason the awe-inspiring parts are more than the underwhelming sum.

Where is this confirmed mate? Can't find it anywhere.

Chip on my shoulder? Even if I earned ?ú100k a year, I'd still rather sit with the proper fans than sit with the club Wembley lot. Would you like to answer my question instead of keep dodging it? Why do so many of them seem not bothered about missing 10-15 minutes of each half?
