Went to Wembley for fa cup semi final few years ago, liked the ground but the surrounding area is awful no bars close to it.

A long old season could await Spurs this season

Went to Wembley for the league cup final vs City, didn't think much of it.

Its an impressive stadium but feels souless and decidedly neautral. I don't know if all the shelf season ticket holders are sitting together but almost no part of the ground was loud except the away section.

On the performance itself, I'm confident they will sort it out (it's been our only bad performance out of 3) but by then we might be too far off the top.

Went to the game

Stadium is superb, modern look about it, toilets and bars very good. That's it

Area is awful, horrible place. Tottenham isn't a great area but there are some great little pubs and restaurants/take aways on the high road.

Travel to Wembley is a joke as well. I come from Enfield in north London so have to travel to kings cross and then out again. The congestion after games is so bad I will go to a local boozer or hotel and wait for crowds to die down. Was in the rooftop bar at the Hilton today which was nice

Not disputing it's a fine looking stadium, but even during our worst times at whl the atmosphere was better than that.

Agree

The atmosphere is abysmal

Palmers, I to am living in Enfield, I dived out five minutes before the end, just got around to sector C, where the Burnley fans were when they scored. Hot-footed it back to Wembley Park, and managed to dive on a Jubilee Line Train which took me to Green Park, then back to Tottenham Hale and the train to Enfield Lock, got home about 7.10 which was not as bad as I thought.

I'd never normally leave early with the game in the balance, but yeah the tube is a pain in the arsssse from Wembley

Didn't fancy queueing up with thousands of fans so went for a drink after the game

No I don`t normally leave before the end, but with Wembley being such a pain, I dived out early. I think in future though I will just wait until the end of the match and hang about for a bit and let the crowds go. Unfortunately the evening games will be a nightmare, with the games not finishing until 10pm. As much as I would like to see the CL matches I think I will give them a miss.

Atmosphere could be better and will no doubt pick up over the next few weeks. Very flat where I've been sitting for the last two games in 506. In the corner of the West and South is where our vocal support is, total opposite side of the ground to where the away fans are located. Don't think that will be solved anytime soon. Still confident though that results will go our way against Swansea and Bournemouth. It's only a matter of time, the performances have been good.

The bottom line is though fellas, is that all the moaning in the world about Wembley, will not alter the fact that Spurs have to play the full season there. I will go with the flow, and hopefully it will improve as the season progresses. I am already looking forward to the Swansea match.

Nothing to do with Wembley at all. We just need to a) close games out b) play with pace, because that is what unsettles teams. c) Do what we did last season and concentrate for the full game.

It has got to do with Wembley genius. The facts are staring at you in the face mate. 2 wins in 14 at this ground. We clearly can't seem to play at this place mate and the record proves it. We went unbeaten last season at the lane only drawing 2. We have already lost 1 and drew 1 in our 1st 2 games. That should tell
You something. We just can't seem to grasp it at Wembley and unfortunately we are going to struggle this season if we don't buck our ideas up.

Atmosphere is so poor and traveling is a real chore. That said, I personally would appreciate it if ALL the side could turn up with winning mentality. Depresses me to spend a bloody fortune and several hours out of a diminishing amount left to me only to see a dozen highly paid and indulged young men, walk around the pitch, gob on the grass and scratch their collective butts looking like they would rather be in their back gardens having a barbie. Moussa was the only bright spot.

Dembele looks like the only one who is taking to Wembley so far.
