Thought we were playing a premiership team to open the ground not an average championship side

Do new grounds not need test events to get a full capacity certificate?

New Wembley's first match was an England U21 match vs Italy at reduced capacity but I don't think that was it's official opening game if you know what I mean.

Here's the link. http://www.pnefc.net/page/NewsDetail/0, ... 74,00.html

How very nice of them to announce our opening ceremony and boast about it being them before Morecambe FC actually do.

Personally I'd tell the bankrupt second county town shambles to sod off and we'll see them in League 1 next season following their inevitable relegation or just a few days later for our annual Carling Cup encounter.

You couldn't script it. I moved up to Newcastle and am working for a company called PNE (Project North East) on an e-learning website called GLOBE (Guided Learning in an Online Based Environment)... my colleagues can't believe it!!!

The club are are pleased to announce that Morecambe chose the Lilywhites over an un-named Premier League club to mark the opening ceremony of their new Globe Arena.


Would rather the club have played an un-named premier side rather then Preston.

I think if we had wanted to officially open the Globe with a fixture against a Championship team, then it would have been appropriate if it had been Ipswich :)
