Do they light up the pitch enough so the team can play a game of football?

Quite frankly after tonight performance there is no guarantee of that! We may well have to look forward to playing in the dark.

I'm sure the lighting engineers will have calculated the correct specification for the lights. There may not be many of them but they coiuld very well be exceptionally efficient.

I'm suspecting that most of the knockers above haven't actually stood in the stadium to see their effect yet :roll:

11 per pole and after looking at the pics on the stadium website, they look more like half the size of your average man rather than a 6inch x 4inch type that you stick on your garage! :roll:

There was pics earlier in the build of the workmen taking some floodlights in to the community building that were far from the little security light type.

On the positive side, atleast we wont have any restrictive views like at CP where we had 4 floodlights down either side

Musco lighting are the company who have installed the floodlights.They are an american based company whos clients include Fulham,Sheffield utd and Portsmouth.They supplied floodlighting for the world cup in South Africa so i am pretty sure the new lights at the Globe Arena will be more than adequate.

I have a concern about the 3rd kerbstone on the right hand side as you enter Christie Way. I'm sure it is going to give way before long. It looks a bit grey as well.

We'll all look a bit grey by the time they open the bloody place and then the moaning starts!

Shit I've just had to stop what I'm doing while I wipe my tears of laughter away

By the way If you think I'm not taking it too seriously I spoke to Graham Hodgson last night and if he can hold himself together after the past few weeks then I'm sure we can :)

The main stand is far too big

The moaners from CP who sat at the back of the old main stand won't be able to see properly
