	Wembley Arena - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Wembley Arena at Night (Taken at a live WWE Show).
		The Wembley Lions and Wembley Monarchs were two ice hockey teams that used the venue during the 1940s, 50s and 60s and Wembley hosted the British Hockey League play-off finals weekend at the end of each season up until the league's disbandment in 1996.
		Wembley Arena was renovated along with Wembley Stadium as part of the regeneration of the Wembley area.

		Wembley pressed forward during the second half and came close to equalising with a superbly struck Hall free kick which the keeper pushed wide at full stretch.
		Wembley were not at their best, but the scoreline more than flattered the hosts who did well to take the three Ryman League Division One points.
		Lions had dented the Essex side's promotion hopes with an away win which started their revival just a few weeks back and goals from Dave Vincent, 2, and Leon Latty gave Wembley five out of the six league points against the Essex outfit.

	Extract From VSM
		Speedway died at Wembley 24 years earlier, aboard a cruise liner off the coast of the holiday island of Madeira in the south Atlantic when Sir Arthur James Elvin was buried at sea.
		And yet Wembley was easily the most successful post-war team, with seven league titles and two runners-up places in 11 seasons, plus other residual cup and trophy, team and individual achievements (including three World Championships), too.
		Wembley's figures have been remarkable; I await their publication with the expectancy that they will reach an average of 55,000.

		Bottom club Wembley thoroughly deserved the 2-1 win over Whytleafe at Vale Farm and hope it will be the starting point on their road to recovery.
		The win still leaves the Lions at the bottom of the pile, but three points nearer their relegation rivals who all had their games postponed on Saturday.
		Wembley's only previous victory this season was against Bedfont in the Middlesex Senior Cup.

	Lady booters make history in England
		The Lady Lions were defeated 3-2 by the English National Team in front of about 40,000 spectators in the opening game of its European tour.
		Wembley Stadium is undoubtedly one of the world's most famous sporting arenas.
		The purpose of the European tour was to prepare the Lady Lions, who enter the 1997 season ranked No. 8 according to the NSCAA/Umbro coaches Top 25 poll, for their Aug. 31 opener against James Madison.

		Wembley's recent resurgence of commitment and confidence was fairly obvious with this performance when you consider that using virtually the same line-up the home club had thrashed the Lions 5 - 1 on their visit to Vale Farm earlier in the season.
		Then, in the second half, Wembley had a lucky escape when a looping header from Danny Moody appeared to have crossed the line before Gerry Brennan hooked it clear, but the referee ignored appeals and waved play on.
		Having survived that scare the Lions finished the second half the stronger team with Leon Callendar latching on to good through balls from Sean McCarthy and Ian Bates respectively, but on each occasion he was denied by the onrushing 'keeper.

		Wembley's reputation as one of the world's great arenas is of course based primarily on its status as the home of English football.
		Again the sport proved to be a great money-spinner, and the local team Wembley Lions used the ground as their home venue, drawing large crowds for local clashes with West Ham in particular.
		As for events outside the sporting scene, the eyes of the world were certainly fixed on Wembley, as well as the JFK Stadium in Philadelphia for the Live Aid concert on 13 July, 1985.

		As a result, the Wembley Lions became homeless for the majority of the season, not being able to return to Wembley until the end of September.
		To allow Wembley to continue its participation in the National League, Ronnie Greene agreed with Alec Jackson, the Wembley Speedway Manager, that the Lions could race the majority of their season at Plough Lane on Thursday evenings.
		At first, admission was restricted to only Wembley fans, but after a few matches it was clear that just Wembley fans were not going to fill up the stadium and admission was thrown open to anyone.

		Wembley was full of Subi identities and supporters and has produced some great players over the years like Peter Metropolis, Peter Featherby and former Richmond player and Melbourne coach Neil Balme and George Young.
		He coached the Lions for 50 matches during a period when club morale and stability was more important than a win, loss ratio.

		What could not be reproduced was imported and placed on display, from tropical trees to thirty full-grown ostriches, from a Burmese shrine to a mountain of New Zealand wool, from a house built with south African tiles and bricks to the re-broadcasting of Big Ben's hourly tones throughout the park.
		Wembley allowed visitors to inspect their empire in microcosm, either while strolling the fifteen miles of roads named by Rudyard Kipling, or riding in one of the eighty-eight carriages circling the park on the 'Never-Stop Railway'.
		There were people who saw a dark omen in the fact that the Wembley Exhibition was built on the ruins of one of Victorian England's failed national monuments, the Metropolitan Tower.

		Across the years, he led Wembley's two clubs - the Canadians/Monarchs and the Lions - to regular trophy success, starting with the National Tournament title in 1937-38 and ending with the Autumn Cup in 1957-58.
		Rost went on to tour Europe with Wembley Lions and famously beat the German national team in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, the venue for the 1936 Olympic ice hockey tournament.
		He was also part of a 1930's Lions side that strung together a 19-game unbeaten run over 21 days during a trip to Sweden - a sequence which included a win against one of the world's best sides - Russia.

		The Red Lions have performed really well under his thoughtful and strategic approach and unless we lose a bunch of games or something I don’t think we need to look elsewhere for guidance.
		A synopsis is but a clickeen away: For all those who don't want to sift through my shoals of nonsense, we came third in the Taipei Summer Cup, and lost 1 - 0 on Sunday to the Animals with a late goal in what was probably the TPL title decider.
		So the game started off like most Lions matches with us pinned in our own half.I don’t know if this is a ruse to lure the opposition into over committing or the effects of Saturday night but all of our TPL matches have started the same way.

		Back in 1946, the Wembley Monarchs provided the opposition on the opening night and they and the other sides proved too strong for the fledgling Panthers who finished bottom of the National League.
		Five years after that first game and the Panthers were National League champions and they repeated their success in 1953-54 when they pipped Streatham by a single point and captain Les Strongman was on hand to receive the trophy.
		Big Lorne Smith took the coaching reins in Nottingham and Strongman was back in the city in 1958 but he left for Malmo in Sweden where he stayed for five seasons before returning to start a business in the city where his name and that of Zamick is synonymous with ice hockey.

		In comparison, the final of the National Trophy was a relatively tame affair, Bradford won the first leg 61 points to 47, but in the return leg, which was run in appalling conditions, the Dons had squared the match on aggregate by heat nine and went on to win by 72 to 36 points.
		In the London Cup, after beating Wembley on aggregate, after winning at home and losing away, the Dons were beaten by West Ham in the Semi-Final, when after being 12 points up after the first leg, Wimbledon crashed to a 38 points to 69 defeat, at the Custom House track.
