Unfinished Business – Where art thou Wembley?

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Wembley, again delayed
Workers told they can’t be paid
Magnificent stadium
Reduced to tedium
As more problems come to light
Before the work is even finished
The magic is once more diminished
Laying the green carpet
For the premiere
Is overhanging schedule
Like a builders derriere

Notes

With the World Cup looming and 2012 not so far behind do we really
need this snowballing list of failure? However good the new stadium is
I would like to see the Football League Play Off Finals remain at Cardiff. The organisation, the people, the policing is all there and they
deserve to keep the business. The day runs like clockwork and it’s worth the journey.
