Wembley Stadium to review pitch concerns
Wembley Stadium's playing surface could be relayed again after the venue officials revealed that a review would be carried out to explore the options available.
The state of the venue's current pitch came under attack after the recent FA Cup Semi Finals, which were held on 10-11 April and featured Aston Villa, Chelsea, Portsmouth and Tottenham Hotspur football clubs. A spokesperson for Wembley Stadium said: "The problems faced on Saturday were due to the way the surface was prepared and the measures used overnight were unable to resolve the situation sufficiently for the match on Sunday.
"Wembley Stadium is a multi-purpose venue and we have to hold other events as part of the business plan, which means regular pitch replacements each year."
