  • I am proud of the new ground. But isn't without its issues. The queues to get off of the stands whilst the game is still in play, and out through the dock wall entrance, is a something that needs urgent attention. Having missed Wayne Rooney's goal due to an impatient lift, I do stay to clap the team off, even if it adds another 20 minutes to the journey home. The parking remains a problem, and the effort for eldery fans to walk to the ground and up steps, is considerable. Lots of raised iron work on the street, uneven ground and poor lighting is causing issues. My dad had a nasty fall last night, and he wasn't alone in receiving first aid for a bump on the head.

It's definitely emptying earlier, and it's probably due to the parking. I've found it easier to park further away, walk to the car past the people sitting in traffic who left 10 mins before the whistle and I probably get away quicker than those parking closer and leaving earlier. The walk isn't for everyone. Especially those with mobility issues, the lack of a nearer train station or trams is the big issue. ...
