Theres just no need to put a 1990's style pull out tunnel there whatsoever. :lol: It looked great without it!

I hate those retractable tunnels. Reminds me of the Britannia Stadium in Stoke. I just don't get why? The tunnel was fine as it was and similar to the likes of the Etihad, Anfield, Wembley and loads of others. There wasn't actually any need to have a retractable tunnel there for such a short...

Its a shame, it should have been the grand opening of the stadium, bring out the ex plaers and legends carrying the trophies they have won. Give a bit of history and sparkle to the new gaff.

Yes. In an ideal world we wouldnt have had to move. And if we had to, we would have gone to a bigger ground. We have uprooted and spent millions on basically getting 15,000 extra seats. But on the flip side it is exciting to be part of a new generation of fans going to a new ground.

Glad there is a legends game. I've long said that should have been the opener at the Hill Dickinson/Closing game at Goodison. My daughter must have passed on the message :D

Slightly disappointed that the Roma match is being billed as the third test event and not the Grand Opening of the Stadium etc. Roma themselves are a big club too and it makes sense from an ownership perspective, but to be honest i was hoping for something special, like a legends game (then...

Yes. I think both times they had the record for about a week before it was taken off them :lol:

I'm not too sure about him.

Most expensive CB is Maguire to Man United. Most expensive GK is the former Chelsea one who now plays for Bournemouth. Arizabalaga? (Sorry cant spell it)

Yes. One concern for me, and I dont know if others will share it or not, but I would rather have a grand, Opening game against a big club (Roma would do) as a glamour, official opening fixture, rather than a League game against someone random as the first ever official game there.

I haven't been concerned about the ground potentially being delayed. But now as there is STILL no news of the grand opening game there, let alone the final test event (presuming they don't make them the same thing) its making me think these rumours of delays are possibly true. While its nothing...

One to be avoided. Over hype based on edited highlights.

I think people are fretting a bit too much over this "people will assume it's Liverpool"s ground" thing. The vast majority of football fans watching will know what Anfield looks like and it won't look like the Hill Dickinson. Some might not but the fact the seats aren't red will be a other...

Its like that on a few modern grounds. Its never THE Emirates or THE Etihad Stadium. Think I first noticed it at Leicester, when in the programme it says "Welcome to King Power Stadium" and it just looked wrong.

Bit mad that they still haven't announced what the opening game at HDS will be. I'm expecting a glamour friendly. Seen people suggesting Roma due to the ownership link.
