The FL are also very worried about how it's possible to have the play-off final just two days after the CL final - in terms of stadium preparations (signage, adverts, branding, TV setups, etc). It'll be a skin of the teeth job.

My heart bleeds for them.

The FL are the good guys compared to the others.

From you post it would indicate they are more worried about the advertising sineage than the condition of the pitch.

That's basically about what football's come to nowadays.

Perhaps I worded it wrongly - but because they've been shafted by WNSL and the FA they have just 1 clear day to prepare Wembley for their showpiece event. The pitch will be fine - it's a Desso now, and if they L1 & L2 matches hadn't been moved it would have had games on Sat, Sun & Monday so they're better off on that score.

It is purely and simply that the FA (Ken B8s, actually) made such a complete and utter oxf*rd-up of Wembley's finances that they have to use it on every possible occasion.

Except the League 1 and 2 play-off finals...

Cue the League 1 final being between Leyton Orient and Southampton and the League 2 final between Torquay and Gillingham.
