I'm not sure whether it's too high mate - don't get me wrong it's a great view but you feel so far away from it
When we first moved to what what the CoMS in 2003 I sat in East Stand Level3 but that didn't last long (moved down to Level1) as I didn't feel part of the game, it's like you're disjointed from it like you're not really there.

Are you a fan of the invisible man? ;-)

Each to their own really, I've been in 303 since we moved there and wouldn't swap it.
 
Now that would be amazing. Wouldn't this mean a whole new planning permission application going in though?
Sat near guy who is in charge of the stadium last night. Screen from North East corner to be relocated to South East corner. I Asked if this meant work was to start on North stand? His reply was not yet and it would be different to the South stand, would not say anymore. Intriguing.
 
I wonder if the Rugby World Cup will make them put two more screens up quicker?

They'll want the stadium to look as complete as possible.

Depends where you are. There's a huge difference between the first few rows which are great and those at the back where it can be like watching a subbuteo game
 
Thanks for all the photos and comments guys! Looks amazing. Would love to get over there over the next couple of years.

Dortmund yellow wall style
 
Incredible stand with an incredible view.

Those up there have got the best seats in the house imo.
 
That really pissed me off as well, how hard is it to stay behind an extra 5 minutes. It's bad enough at any game but why bother turning up, sitting through 2 hours of admittedly quite boring training and then leave minutes before a fire drill that you've been begged to stay for. Thank god we passed the certificate but a depressingly large number of fans were willing to put passing the test at risk for the sake of getting home a little early on a night where there was no traffic issues. The apathy from some fans at games is ridiculous

Oh dear.
 
Any idea when ?

Modifications to design being worked on. Feeling is that more corporate at the North Stand is not needed so they could loose the "boxes" / lounge at the North end to create a yellow wall. This is being looked at as we speak. I would strongly suggest it would start in 1 year / 2 years max.

Surely a huge fanzone style bar under the stand for a mass stand of blues would be good.

Any chance could be to do with possible introduction of safe standing?

The thing is the stand wont look like the stand sold to the fans when the season ticket brochure went out earlier in the year without the screens fitted. I'd be amazed if the screens dont go in, in the next few weeks, not only to mask the join in the roofs but also to finish off a fantastic new stand.
