Title: wembley Post by: oxford_fan on Tuesday, February 21, 2006, 13:38:09 what a surprise, not ready in time. i wasn't sure about the 'arch' at first, but i think it will be better than the twin towers as a landmark
http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/40301000/jpg/_40301281_wembley_fa.jpg has any other football stadium ever cost £800m-odd? how much does a skyscraper cost? i really should do some essay.

Another reason to drop him* I like the investigation into the Wembley construction workers betting on the fact it wouldn't be ready in time for the cup final! *awaits BWB angry reply. Title: wembley Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, February 22, 2006, 15:47:44 According to the sun today, the builders have been betting against wembley being finished on time

May not be ready for next years cup final :shock: How crap is that. I hope this company don't get involved building the olympic stadiums or we're buggered. Title: wembley Post by: flammableBen on Tuesday, August 1, 2006, 22:59:04 It's a pretty shit delay. Although the tv promo's for bob the builder which have been on bbc between programmes recently have been ace. Can't find a picture but it's bob the builder fixing stuff and has wembly at the end. aceness.

You wouldnt find a building site that big anywhere in England where someone isnt taking something. :nod: Any job where people work long physical days, you will find drugs. The arch does look mighty impressive from the north circular, but it's pretty fucking pathetic to be so far over-schedule(nevermind over cost), and pretty symptomatic of any large scale construction in England. It baffles me how we are so bad at it. Title: wembley Post by: Reg Smeeton on Tuesday, August 1, 2006, 23:53:20 Could see the arch thing from the M25 out Surrey way on a recent journey....its a big bit of kit.
We're not that bad at big stuff, only when given to Australian contractors.

Title: wembley Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Wednesday, August 2, 2006, 08:43:34 the firm building it is Australian which is probably why they (a) take drugs (b) are lazy on the job
Title: wembley Post by: Bushey Boy on Wednesday, August 2, 2006, 08:54:18 go into any company now days and you will find people on drugs. The tea boy may be doing pills on a saturday night, the secretary could smoke weed in the evening with her bloke, the director could be a smack head. The builders just havent been organised correctly.
Title: wembley Post by: Northern Red on Wednesday, August 2, 2006, 08:54:40 Should've built it in Birmingham for a third of the price or built three - one in Birmingham, one in Manchester and of course one in Swindon.
And it'd be finished already.... Title: wembley Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Wednesday, August 2, 2006, 11:29:55 I remember watching a documentary about a company whose staff were encouraged to use drugs whenever they wanted too and their profits had been rising for 20 years. Perhaps multiplex haven't been using enough drugs.
