True about playing there from a players point of view, but it’s not something to brag about as a supporter that your team has played in a 3rd division play off. The charity shield holds more kudos even though there’s a better carrot dangling in your game. Good weekend away though. I’ll give you that.

You are deflecting from the main point - big clubs have played at Wembley regularly.

Chelsea - 20, Man City - 15, Man Utd - 11, Arsenal 11, Spurs - 8, Villa - 7 (5 if you discount playoff finals), Liverpool - 6, Everton - 4, Mags - 0

Big in crowds only.

I find that remark condescending tbh. Ask any child about an experience, ask any semi professional player or supporter about the experience and you will realise it is not about kudos it is about being part of the experience. So many supporters, and premiership players will never get the opportunity to play there in any competitive capacity regardless of the value of the competition

If you read my comment properly, (from a players point of view and it’s a good day out/weekend away for the supporters) you’ve agreed with me. But my point still stands on the kudos comment. It’s a fact. I can guarantee if the tables were turned you would be saying the same. We’re never going to agree because of the circumstances.

That wasn’t the point in this conversation. That’s for a different conversation. One we’ve probably already had at least once over the past few weeks.

Just reminding - all those FA cup finals/semi finals, league cup finals, community shields and never a black and white shirt. Even little old Sunderland have been once for a big boys cup.

Simple reasoning behind this. Yous are a massive club. We can’t compete with your greatness.
