Wembley is a fine stadium but not as good as some of the more modern football stadia like the Etihad and my own local the Emirates.

Sadly Wembley is in one of the most depressing parts of London (a kind of post modern, bleak and neglected industrial estate) with bugger all by way of food, drink and entertainment nearby. I thoroughly hate the place - probably embedded by the fact I have been there so often and seen us lose!

As a kid I always used to marvel at Highbury when I went past on the train and the Emirites doesn't disappoint me either looks trerrific

The Emirates (or Ashburton Grove as die hard Gooners call it) is a great stadium (it should be it cost enough!) and is in a good part of London for eating, drinking and clubbing being only a few minutes walk from Upper Street in Islington, only one stop on the tube from Kings Cross too so pretty handy.

I love Headingley but when you spend as much time as I do at the Emirates it does make you realise just how 'tired' HQ really is (and how much money needs to be spent to bring it fully back to World Class standards). A big ask given the levels of turnover and profit of even a very successfully run RL club like ours.

Yes if only

i blooy hate wembley. nothing around it, takes ages to get there (and i live near heathrow!) and the staff are useless at serving beer. missed 20-30 mins of eng v aus 4 nations game there waiting for bloody beer =/ pretty certain they ran out of beer at 2011 CC final too by half time....

You were really that desperate for a pint of watered down Carlsberg that you missed a big chunk of the game queuing up?

The stadium itself is superb, it's just got nothing around it.

With Headingley, it might be tired looking compared to these fancy new stadia but it's got more heart and soul to it than them too.

It'll get steadily redeveloped over time but it'll still retain that heart and soul.

Whilst the area around Wembley Stadium is a soulless hole, Wembley proper has a huge Gujurati population and a lot of Tamils too and some great restaurants. Completely different type of Asian meals than you'd get in Bradford or Leeds, but up with their best (if you walk past Wembley Central tube on the high road and avoid the few places obviously set up for the Arena crowds not the locals).

There's a place opposite the William Hill which always has some kind of BBQ outside, it always looks and smells amazing!

You seriously missed 20 minutes of a game to get a pint of beer!!
