Wembley Stadium loses money
Wembley Stadium continues to be a drain on the Football Association’s revenues rather than a money spinner according to its latest accounts. Despite attracting two million visitors to 28 events last year, the stadium made a pre-tax loss of £12.1m. Although this was a reduction from £15.6m, the recession hit Club Wembley revenues, which fell from £65m to £60m. Club Wembley represented a fifth of total turnover of £304m.
