    Loads of posts about the parking and I bet they won't use the car park anyway.

    I believe the signage needs amending and the first hour is free. I spoke to someone at the club yesterday to check

    Would look better taken from the opposite side. That south stand is an eye-sore.

    Do you think so?
    The trees behind make the place look especially nice in my opinion.
    And they provide a good spot for our famous pigeons to live.

    Those colours at the first match against Birmingham under the floodlights could be like the very first night match I saw as a kid in 1967 when the experience of the illuminated colours and night atmosphere seemed so wondrous and suddenly I was hooked and couldn’t get enough of going to matches after that whereas I hadn’t really been that interested before.

    It might just be me, but does anyone else think it looks a bit patchy in the corners? Seems to be like it in all the puctures I've seen.

    The colour of those seats are unreal, that photo must have been digitally enhanced...🤔

    Bit confused here……I suspect the actual markings of the pitch will be inside of those bare patches….am I right?

    Still looks like a crap 10 year old shag pile carpet, wherever you want to paint those white lines...🤷‍♂️

    Yes

    If you look at this pic I assume the two white circles on the grass are the holes for the posts

    Looks a bit tight for sliding off then receiving a carpet burn

    Not sure I’m seeing the same issues you are. 

    It’s come a long way in 6 weeks and there’s still almost another two until there’s any football played on it - three and a half until there’s anything meaningful.

    Trust the process my friend.

    Last season Valley pitch was 103.3m x 68m, now it's 103m x 68m.
     Had to go 300mm (nearly 12 inches) shorter because of stitching and undersoil heating pipes. Now means pitch is properly square to the stands.
