Hang on, hang on - it can be modern, or it can be timeless, but surely it can't be both?
If its timeless surely its always modern

I'm surprised they don't have 'TURF MOOR, HAPPY PLACE' written down the side.

Yes definitely, looks mint.
FWIW other than the crazy coloring around the entrances the place looks miles better. Gutted I can,'t be there on Saturday but hoping if the electronic boards the ground will look miles better again.
I very much doubt the new electronic boards will installed by tomorrow.

Walked down Harry Potts way this morning, and actually thought it looked pretty cool. Brought a modern, sharp feel to the outside of the ground. Looks a lot better.

Heard on good authority that the new owners don’t like the claret and blue around the ground tbh.
“Get rid of those ghastly colours” were the quote I was told was said to someone about the original colour scheme

Not going on until the colours are reverted back to the original. Oh and also until they can guarantee I’m not going to get breathed on by anyone else in the stadium.

No problem with this. Makes it look neat and tidy. I’m sure there’d be plenty of complaints if they hadn’t bothered doing this and it started to look tired and tatty…

I thought it all looked much smarter.
Even the yellow wasn’t as bad as the pictures made it appear.

Does the new digital screen ever show the next game?
Everytime I drive past, or waiting at the lights.. alll I ever see is adverts, adverts and more adverts. Could at least show the next game, then a couple of adverts, followed by the next game.
I prefer the old non digital one now

if this one is only ever going to be adverts.

Afraid it's another attempt to monetise the club to local people to create more income for our new owners.
Go back to the original non digital board, most people are getting a little turned off by advertising overload these days now.

“Yanks go home” .. I’m sure they will understand that
