This is the story of a not-very good football club, a journeyman supporter and his seemingly never ending dream to see his team play at an iconic stadium.

July 1966. Wembley Stadium, England v. Mexico. Charlton enters the opposition half and lets fly. On a 12 inch black and white television, a seven-year-old boy sees his first ever goal and at the same time falls in love with the place where it was scored.

April 1967. Brisbane Road E10, Leyton Orient v. Swindon Town. The lads first live game. A thrilling goalless draw and his life was mapped out - he’s fallen in love with the Orient.

Two different passions and a desire begins to want to watch his team play at the legendary venue.

May 29th 1999. Destination finally reached. This is the story of all that happened to the little club in the east end of London and a passionate follower of theirs in the thirty-two years in between. This is the tale of a long road to Wembley.

Decent Monitor Stand with Some Assembly Required
Size: Single, Style: Free-Standing
This monitor stand works pretty well and is a good value for the price. It’s sturdy and adjustable, which makes it perfect for a variety of monitors, including my 32-inch curved Samsung. The assembly is straightforward if you have a Phillips screwdriver and something to tighten bolts, like a wrench. It’s solid once it’s put together and holds my monitor securely. The phone holder could use some improvement. It doesn't adjust to face me directly, which is a bit annoying. The stand itself is great for saving desk space and providing better ergonomics, but it can be a bit of a hassle to assemble if you’re not handy with tools. Overall, a good buy if you need a reliable monitor stand.

Works, Good product, but wouldn't recommend for specifically 3 27inch screens.
Size: Triple, Style: Free-Standing
I purchased this stand to have 3 27inch 2560x1440 monitors, with the side ones angled towards me in a typical 3-monitor setup often seen being used by racing or aviation simulator guys. This stand's arms for the two side monitors are not long enough to have said monitors angled more than 5 to 8 degrees meaning they are forced to be completely linear which is incredibly awkward to try to use because you can barely see or use the screen space on the far edges. 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐬, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐞, 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐛𝐮𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬. The product description should not say it can hold 3 27 inch screens because the amount of struggling I had to do to get it to be acceptable was ridiculous. The stand is... not heavy enough to safely hold monitors of this size either, and additional weight was required ( 2 10lb dumbbells in my case ) configuring the height of your monitors with this stand can be dangerous as well as they could fall down the central post so you have to be extremely careful, but, it is pretty easy other than that. It is a great option if you don't have a desk with an edge for typical stands ( I don't. ) You can place the stand anywhere, and you don't have to drill through your desk if you really don't want to. The cable clips are a very nice included bonus, and they sent me a replacement without any hassle when I totally effed up my first attempt at setup. But, I would have shopped harder and got something else if I knew all this prior all the same. Maybe even bought a gigantic curved screen instead.
