Sky HISTORY - This Day in HISTORY
On this day:

Our Knees Have Gone All Trembly

The turnstiles were given a final polish. The turf was buffed up good and lovely. The big arch thing was gone over with some Windowlene. It was on this day in 2007 that the new Wembley finally finished construction, with the keys handed over to the Football Association, probably utilising a novelty, Wembley-shaped fob. Though it was several years and millions of pounds overdue, the new world class stadium was finally ready to accommodate a fixture worthy of launching this magnificent edifice: Kidderminster Harriers versus Stevenage Borough in the FA Trophy Final.
