Wembley is a pretty decent stadium these days at all levels, God viewing and amenities but a bit of a ball-ache to get out of when 90,000 all head to. The same tube station!....I am actually hoping to be working at the game but just in case got the tix sorted and would be goodto catch up with some Hampurites
Block 215 I believe middle deck

Hows the security at those stadiums? I suppose it can't be worse than what we have but I'd be lying if I told you I wasn't worried about the savages. To the best of my knowledge t here has never been any attack on any sporting event in Europe. Now that you mention it it does seem like a good idea for the terrorist but it just has never happened. And to be honest with you the NFL is not such a big deal over here if they wanted to hit europe there would be much better targets if they wanted to hit Americans, they'd prolly do it in America. So I think you'll be alright. But what do I know I just attended a soccer match couple of months ago about 70-80 miles from the Syrian border, LOL. So London doesn't look too bad from where I am. Only if you don't count the Olympics as a sporting event.

To be honest I don't follow the olympics much

Because the original question inferred a hesitation to attend the football game in london because of potential attacks on the to the spectators as opposed to the jewish players (if any). Thus I answered that I had no knowledge of such happening in europe. I may not have been clear enough by stating I have never heard of an attack on the spectators of a sporting match in europe as I thought that was implied and did not think munich 72 was relevant. I stand corrected on that account.

Not to take anything away from Munich at all and of course it counts but the nature of global terrorism as was inferred in the context of the original post is very different than 42 years ago. And of course those attacks were not at an actual venue attack on crowds attending the game. Pretty incredible that it hasn't happened before now but security and policing around major sporting events in Europe has always been pretty tight. in the end it's often easier to pick on the softer target of a packed railway station or town centre.

Maybe you guys could have a forum competition whereby you all put in $20 and if enough of you (100 or so) enter the fray we could have an offseason competition with the winner being sent to London for the game as official envoy of the Hampur
Either that or just send us the First Lady VTN.....we'll look after her
