The F. A. Cup Final at Wembley Stadium, 1923
Aerial photograph of Wembley Stadium before the start of the 1923 F.A. Cup Final between Bolton Wanderers and West Ham United. This was the first Cup Final held at the then brand-new Wembley Stadium, which had been built in 300 days at a cost of 750, 000. Before the match began a crowd of about 100, 000 (most without a ticket) stormed through the gates and into the stadium. This meant that there was approximately 200, 000 people in a ground designed for 127, 000. The photograph shows the scene as the spectators moved onto the pitch, due to the pressure of people behind them. The match started 40 minutes late and was won by Bolton 2-0"

This aerial photograph captures the historic scene at Wembley Stadium before the start of the 1923 FA Cup Final between Bolton Wanderers and West Ham United. The image showcases the vast expanse of the then-new stadium, which was built in just 300 days at a cost of 750,000. The FA Cup Final of 1923 was the first major event held at the stadium, which was designed for 127,000 spectators. However, the photograph reveals a different story. Before the match began, an estimated crowd of about 100,000 people (most without tickets) stormed through the gates and onto the pitch, bringing the total number of people in the ground to approximately 200,000. The pressure of the crowd behind them forced spectators onto the pitch, causing the match to start 40 minutes late. The FA Cup Final of 1923 is now famous for this unprecedented overcrowding, which resulted in chaotic scenes both on and off the pitch. The photograph shows the chaotic scene as the spectators moved onto the pitch, with the pressure of the crowd behind them. The match eventually started and was won by Bolton Wanderers 2-0. This aerial view offers a unique perspective of this historic moment in football history, providing a glimpse into the past and the chaotic scenes that unfolded at the first FA Cup Final held at the iconic Wembley Stadium.
