You can see from that photo where they've wedged an extra row in at the back.

Pretty sure that row was already there, mate.
I used to sit T2, second row from the back

Probably a really stupid question but do all the posh seats, corporate behind the glass etc count as the official capacity? If so then what would the predicted capacity be after the work is complete?

No mate, I've been back row 5 years (row LL), it's no longer the back row, that's now MM, was speaking to the ticket office about it yesterday

The shade of blue used in the Lower North looks nice. I think I'd have preferred the Adidas logo in the same colour.

Actually ignore that. I’m misreading your post.

Posters for the concert tonight are on eBay at bonkers prices.

And some VP footage of a support act

The ground looks good in that footage, even if sitting in the Trinity for a gig wouldn't be for me.

I tend to always buy a bottle of water and a drink for the boy. Sometimes a programme for him and on ocassions, the sausage roll can be quite decent.
Im hoping my lad starts seeing the virtue of the pub a couple of hours before a game this season, so I don’t ‘have’ to keep heading to the ground early to buy a couple of pints and soft drinks for my two and be £25 quid lighter every match.

Not really related but there was loads of security on the trains and Aston/Witton stations this evening. Presumably Dave Grohl has paid for that, not the club?

The old seats had just faded over time as plastic will. Not sure the shade has changed they are just brand new so look different .

Extra trains on tonight. Fancy that, it can be done.
