Handy dandy tote handle. Has wheels on the back-side too.

I was just reading about Wembley and according to Wikipedia the pitch is only 115 yards long. What are they going to do about the endzones? Are the seats at either end of the field collapsable?

Not much. For one thing, I live on the same latitude as Boston and Northern California. Secondly, it was t-shirt weather here watching the snow in Foxboro on Sunday.

From the looks of things, it sounds like the weather is going to be beautiful compared to this past Sunday in Foxboro.

the arch is just a feature, you can see the arch on a clear day from right across London! When do the players land in london? I heard they are training at the oval cricket ground.

Nice looking building. I was still picturing in my mind's eye the Freddie Mercury Tribute-era Wembley.

Not just a feature at all, in a strange relationship that i don't quite understand the roof and the arch hold each other up. Remove either one and the other would collapse.

5.35am local time Friday morning.

So thats 12.35 am Eastern. Yes they are practicing at the Brit oval. Not sure the groundsman will be too please about having linemen ripping up his outfield.

When they refer to the pitch, they mean the area marked out by the white lines. So as you can see from these pictures, plenty of extra room:



Fits in fine.
