Wembley Stadium is one of the most famous football grounds anywhere in the world. The new stadium opened in 2007, and as this was our first visit, we wanted to do it in style with some hospitality.

 

Next season, this will be the temporary home of Tottenham as they are building a new stadium next to White Hart Lane. If they end the campaign strongly Spurs could well be playing there as the reigning Premier League champions; they remain in the title hunt with Chelsea and can be backed at 19/1 with bookmakers such as Sportsbet who are offering odds on the league championship.

 

We had no problem arriving at the ground as we took the underground to Wembley Park, which is served by the Metropolitan and Jubilee lines. Once you leave the station, you cannot miss the stadium: it is right in front of you.

 

When we walked into the Booby Moore Room, we were handed a glass of champagne and shown to our seats. The three-course meal was very enjoyable and we had somewhere comfortable to have a drink before the game started.

 

The seats were in a fantastic position and padded, so we were very comfortable throughout the game. We also noticed there was much more legroom here than with some of the other seats around the stadium.

 

Overall, our day was very enjoyable. We felt as though we received world-class hospitality throughout, from walking into the stadium to the farewell we were given when we were leaving several hours later. Not only that, but England won as well!
