The Football Association have given approval for North London club, Tottenham Hotspur to use Wembley Stadium for their home games without consultation.
The FA hasn’t bothered to consult with local residents whom have had to find out from the media that Spurs are moving in to the stadium.
The north London club and its supporters have been given permission to colonize the iconic stadium until their new club is built, which is due for completion in 2018.
Locals left in the lurch
Residents don’t object to Spurs coming to Wembley or any club for that matter, as long as it is thought out. The least the FA could do was to show some consideration to local people by consulting them.
Spurs home games at Wembley will begin after the stadium’s main events season, which starts in spring and usually runs through to the end of summer. This will be a distinct change from the norm, where residents were used to enjoying the quieter autumn / winter season around Wembley, when the events have finished for the year.

Will proper measures be put in place?
Spurs could play up to 30 matches at Wembley in one season and they are quite capable of filling the stadium during each game. Resulting in locals experiencing travel disruptions more often than usual, when commuting home from work.
Stadium events are still not run brilliantly by the police and there has been sporadic violence at a few of the big matches this year – notably before the cup final and Millwall fans most recently.
Fans street drinking and urinating are a big concern for residents, who are yet to see proper measures put in place during football matches.
The huge debt of this stadium is not the fault of locals, who have to stay at home on event days as a rule.
This decision makes residents feel like the vast iconic stadium is sitting there looming at the surrounding areas like some kind of North Korean dictator.
Likening the FA to the North Korean leader undermines the point of the article. Yes the FA were wrong not to consult the local residents but after the way they were treated by Brent Council why should they bother.
In the 1990s when Wembley was in sharp decline the FA made a massive investment in Wembley Park not just the new stadium but also by building the FA offices there as well. Now all Brent Council want is get rich from Quintain and turn Wembley Park into an overcrowded ghetto.
The North Korean quip is just a bit of mischief on my part based on the fact the Stadium PR machine will do everything to hide any negative comments – including the violence in the Stadium recently when Millwall fans attacked rival fans – no offence meant
