Claim: The 90,000-capaciy Wembley Stadium was not yet ready for the Cup Final in 2005, so the Football Association had to move the game to Cardiff's Millenial Stadium in 2006.
Evidence: With 90,000 seats, it is the largest stadium in the UK and the second-largest stadium in Europe. In February 2006 these worries were confirmed, with the FA moving the game to Cardiff's Millennium Stadium. However, in December 2005, the builders admitted that there was a "material risk" that the stadium might not be ready in time for the final. In October 2005, Sports Minister Richard Caborn announced: "They say the Cup Final will be there, barring six feet of snow or something like that".
