    42 million for a 30,000 seater stadium with athletics facilities and whatever else. A billion for Wembley. FA should be embarrassed.

    Its not built yet

    So I wouldnt take too much notice of figures given by P R

    A better example is the Milennium stadium which is not much smaller than the new Wembley and was a fraction of the cost

    You got my point though.

    Didn't Japan build all their new stadiums for the WC for the same cost as Wembley?

    WRU got a fixed price to build it , when it actually cost twice as much by all accounts.

    Wouldnt surprise me

    No I fully get your point £1 billion for a stadium is absolutely incredible. I just wouldnt use the financial predictions for publicity pete to support the argument though. His track record on the financial side isnt exactly perfect

    Ruined Leeds, tried to do it to us, now Cardiff. And was reading the other day he also did the same to a company before moving into football. He is a financial menace.
