New Wembley - England u-21 v Italy - 24th March 2007

[Jeff]

So all the people with mobile phones that can also take pictures will have to leave them outside?

Yes. I'll be standing outside collecting them from people before they go in.

Likewise, I can't see there being any rules about taking photo's of Wembley, both in and out so long as you don't photograph the footy

The small print on the back of the ticket says you can't take a camera into the ground.

Puts a different perspective on it then

It doesn't actually use the word camera.

Item 3: You shall not bring into (or use within) the ground any equipment which is capable of recording or transmitting (by digital or other means) any audio, visual or audio-visual material or any information or data in relation to a Match or any aspect of it. Mobile telephones are permitted within the Ground provided they are used for bona fide personal and private use only.

So as long as you have a camera that's not capable of "recording or transmitting (by digital or other means) any audio, visual or audio-visual material" you're ok then!


The FA's rules regarding the use of cameras are different to Wembley Stadium's, hopefully they will be the ones in force on Saturday:

"The use of cameras or any video or audio recording equipment within the Stadium for any commercial purpose whatsoever is strictly prohibited without the prior written consent of The FA."

A number of grounds have cameras among the items that cannot be taken in, but most only bother if you have something that looks like a professional job with a long lens that could get decent shots of the action.

I think you will find that *all* grounds say you can't take them in. It's part of the standard 'football grounds regilations'.

so if i take a standard digital camera is it likely to get confiscated????

I would think for an occasion like this they're not going to search everyone on the way in and so many people will take cameras even if they spot it on the way in they're more likely to just tell you not to use it, they won't want to cause problems by stopping people going in. Stewards at some grounds are told to stop people taking pictures inside the ground, so that might happen. Might be worth contacting the FA to find out exactly what to expect though.

I put the query in before the facility became unavailable - still no reply.

The telephone number that it quotes is 020 7745 4545. This is a standard geographical number for inner London - it is not a Premium Rate Number. It does say however that it is for urgent queries.
