The new stand is looking great but what struck me is just how bad and dated the rest of the ground is compared to it. We really have put up with a truly awful stadium for far too long. If the east stand and north stand turn out as well as or better than the south stand I think we'll have a stadium we can be proud of. Just sort out the blooming floodlights.

Very disappointed with the South Stand.
Didn't hear one chant from them last night.
Doesn't help the atmosphere.

Wael, bless him bought a blue T shirt for every fan in the stand with the logo "running on blue gas" in appreciation of the Green Party support for the new stand. Should be a collectors item in years to come

Looks great to be fair, and now all the seats are in and the fence in front is down, that empty bit in the top left hand corner doesn't look that big at all. what’s that empty bit for?

Apparently that gap and no cladding on the end has been left that way as it is going to tie in with the new extension on the east side.

I get the impression that the south/east stand is going to be the same as the south/west stand.

Was thinking just that when I looked across at those two pillars and the seats behind them…… they won’t be watching much football 😂

A real shame they could not have used a single post there. Wonder if that is something that can be fixed as otherwise there are going to be unusable seats there. The whole corner section makes the stand look more joined up, but when you take the gangway and entrance out does not gain many seats over a separate South and South West configuration.

I'm more interested in when they will improve that annoying shadow the new stand creates. 🤷🏻♂️

Needs to have a phased opening apparently. probably be made to look like a prize penis now when the club announce half season tickets. but honestly that is what I was told Saturday at the shop. Our CEO told me yesterday in his instant reply to my email that ST’s would be available as previously for people to change areas with existing ST,s in other areas of the ground. That was the reply to my question, I hasten to add I did not ask about people buying new ST’s. Not surprised. why can't they just say they don't know? I get that the people that have already purchased Sts in expectation of being in that stand will get to pick a seat. I can't see why the club would not do a half ST of at all possible. or even a 10 game bundle just something!
