The FA are making a great case for the sale of Wembley, offering to put all the no at into grass roots facilities etc, but it's hard not to think of all the problems caused by selling stadia into private hands in club football. Is it a good idea?
Also, given that the FA are talking about spending this over a period of 20 years, surely £600m over 20 years is chump change for the Premier league clubs if that really is what's required for a 'transformative' investment in the game in this country. Could simply knock £1.5m per season off the Premier league prize money, it's not like the club's are going to go and play anywhere else.
