Wednesday fan here. Absolutely loved the Boleyn Ground, 35,000 of you, packed out - close to the pitch - the bubbles going/anthem. Never ceased to make the hairs on back of neck stand up - back in the day when Wednesday were half decent and we visited. Not that I can criticise grounds (ours is half falling apart) but your new place looks absolutely awful.

First time I've really taken any notice last night on the TV, you're a mile away from the pitch. It even "looks" horrible on the cameras, you just see the 2 managers from the main camera, and 20-30m of horrible grubby green astro-turf all around the pitch. Can't even see the fans or advertising hoardings for that matter. The atmosphere looks dire, it's bland, genuinely feel for you lot as along with Palace (go to some of their games) you're one of my favourite southern/London-based teams.

What's the answer? Maybe try to install seats closer to the pitch? Standing areas? That place would be chronic back in the Championship with Rotherham or Burton visiting on a cold January/February Tuesday night. What's the plan?
