That ground is going to look absolutely fantastic when we play Wigan in our first home game. I just hope our first team in as good "nick"! Surely it must inspire them to play and WANT to play when they set foot on that pitch. I can't wait to get down there again!!!! COYR...
Sounds like typical stupidity from the football league. Our "Special Dispensation" for a new pitch results in 3 home games in a week at the beginning of the season.
I presume the special dispensation was having the away game first - then the way the fixtures work - you get two home games. The Colchester cup game was a draw and couldn't be fixed.
Just needs some huge inflatable swords to whoosh up behind the goals when we score, and with our current squad that would retain novelty value for quite some time.
I'm looking forward to seing it but I'm looking forward more to not seeing a single bright shiny new red seat due to sell-out crowds at all Prem games.

Painting the steps also really brightens up the place.

At least unless Jimmy Turf takes over as manager, gets two successive promotions, a top-two finish in the Premier League and wins the FA Cup.
Until then, it's always got to be seed.

dream, dream dream ... all I have to do is ......
Also like the sound of the cafc crest and swords at various intervals in the AstroTurf too. Could be quite impressive to see
