We're going to Wem-ber-ley, que sera, sera.

I think all this fuss over Wembley Stadium is more visceral than logical.  Provided we get assurances that it will be made available for games traditionally played there does it really matter who owns it?  For anybody not aware, an American-Pakistani billionaire has offered to buy the stadium for something like £800m.  Part of this man's sporting portfolio is the American football team the Jacksonville Jaguars and it's being suggested that part of his plan is to make Wembley the team's home ground, which would have the effect of making London part of the NFL.  Should we care?  Like I say, heart says one thing, head says another.
