Since 2008 and the CC win we have played at Wembley probably over 30 times and still not won a trophy. It's a disgrace and we are a laughing stock yet again.
I forgot the 'just kidding' emoji. I am aware that you don't get trophies for league games or CL group games or even early rounds of both CC and FA Cups. Just trying to lighten the gloomy mood on here while Sissoko is out injured.To be fair most of those have been league games and the cup matches when we have not used it as our host stadium have been against teams that would expect to beat us, except Portsmouth.
Don't trains run in the winter?Left the flat at 8.30am this morning and got home at 5.45pm
Not even been on the tinkle either
Such a long journey 2 3/4 hours on the way home to go 50 miles gotta love the North Circular
Its the winter so no trains for me so I have to get the coach
Still we won and the Bovril was nice today
On my line which is the Greater Anglia mainline we have not had weekend trains for getting on for 10 years nowDon't trains run in the winter?

Crossrail works and overhead replacements, alledgedly these are finished at the end March
A lot of games where with 50k capacity, so numbers are not bad.
This will change when refunds aren’t offered for every game. You’d probably find a correlation with the scheduling of the game too, Wembley is ok for a Saturday kick off but evenings and Sunday 4pms are less attractive and usually on tv too.

I really hope we find a way to redistribute season tickets for matches the holders don’t fancy, a paid for empty seat is a sad thing for a football club imo.
Setting aside the extra hassle of travel, Wembley has been brilliant for our family. Not only have we been able to get into many more games - including all of the biggest - but we've also been able to go as a group with friends and their families too.Just on the Wembley thing. I know it's not been ideal, but for me, overall, it's not been that bad. Yesterday was tinged with a bit of sadness because I was probably saying goodbye to a few people I may not bump into for a while, if ever. Those of us that have stuck it out in our area have made some really good friends and it's a shame to lose that (everybody was choosing seats in NWHL when we didn't really have that bond, so we're all over the new place).
I get the (relative) hassle people have had getting to Wembley and that has come into sharp focus for me in the recent couple of games. Instead of going to Wembley Central because of time constraints I've tried the Metropolitan Line and Wembley Park and it's a nightmare. Getting in and (surprisingly) out of the station takes for ever and I only lately realise you can't get a beer an hour before kick-off, WTF!?! Never had any of those probs at Wembley Central in/out relatively easily and beer available anytime (you've got to have a beer before the match, "Es la ley!"). Walk to the ground is also a bit more like that from Seven Sisters rather than what I would imagine West Ham have to put up with (Yesterday we even had to negotiate 8,000 kids from "Flame, the largest Catholic youth event in England and Wales" at Wembley Arena. A minor inconvenience for us but I dread to think what they felt like.)
Anyway, bottom line it ain't been that bad.....but, enough already!
When i feel bad about being there i think of West Ham.
Well i would go and stand on hackney marshes in the tinkling rain to watch our beloved Spurs, Wembley is not home but its not been that bad for travel or access. When i feel bad about being there i think of WHY we are there and what we have to look forward to at our new home.
