WE loved our trip to Wembley (apart from the result) but what a mess Wembley is becoming.

Not inside because the place generates a great atmosphere and you get a great view from wherever you are sat.

But outside – it is a building site.

You used to emerge out of the station at the top of Wembley Way and all you could see on the horizon was the looming presence of the stadium.

Now it is hard to spot amid the high rise flats and the cranes.

They are turning what was one of the great sights in world sport into something less than spectacular.

What a shame.
