Whitley Bay 6 Wroxham 1

FA Vase Final

9th May 2010

Wembley Stadium

Final score - 6-1 to Whitley Bay. Great day, great game though a tough train ride home. Long day but good fun. Back to the Head of Steam in Newcastle for a pint and home to Whitley Bay for 1am. Magic!

 

Wembley shenanigans #2

Whitley Bay 2-1 up! Sixteen mins gone.

Wembley prices/grammar shocker

Wembley half time refreshment price list. Omitted from the list here is the "pie & pint meal deal“ which weighs in at a cool £8. London prices are notoriously high but this really takes the piss. Lovely revamped national stadium but overpricing the half time pint, in a way not dissimilar to your average motorway service station, is nothing short of exploitation. That said, the actual taste of the beer arguably leaves a worse taste in one’s mouth.
Perhaps though, the bigger disgrace is the appalling use of the apostrophe in the top right of the picture. Shame...
