Even the net behind the goal is in mid air. At least the keeper cant get tangled in the back of it like at OT. He'll just slide out the back into the hoardings!!
Na, it's not, there is a 'notch' of grass that pokes out where the goals are! The ends are part of the trays whereas the sides are the flaps that lift and drop for the NFL pitch.Even the net behind the goal is in mid air.

We're not Real MadridWould be amazing if you weren’t allowed to sit in the south stand if you’re not wearing white.
Supply white t shirts for everyone to wear if they don’t have the Spurs shirt.
Create that special atmosphere, make teams not want to come.

Lol the amount of things that gets picked at in this thread.
On BT TV Hartson talking about Spurs V Dortmund just said game will be at Wembley, slip of the tongue or does he know.?
It’s the same with most of these rent-a-gobs on tv and radio. They need to have one or two go-to sentences for every club and then they can pad out the rest with drivel and banter. The amount of times I hear them just talking shite because they haven’t done 5 minutes research into what they’ve been brought on to talk about... He’s taken a punt.On BT TV Hartson talking about Spurs V Dortmund just said game will be at Wembley, slip of the tongue or does he know.?
For anyone luck enough to be there, what was your impression of the intimacy / degree of enclosure of the ground (if you know what I mean)?
I know people have talked up the (relative) closeness of the stands to be pitch, but the rake of the stands has had to comply with modern guidelines and the designers have been reasonably generous with the leg room. How does it compare to Wembley on on the one hand and the old WHL on the other?
Amazing if you want to live in a fascist state I guess.
Slope behind goal at Old Trafford, probably a little more space for players to stop themselves from rolling over the edge than at NWHL

This calls for an expert...I’d say about twice as much space looking at that picture.
I m looking at the hoardings right now and I don’t think it’s 93million miles away

A massive upgrade on the Old WHL, and Wembley doesn't even compare at any level. I had a day to remember yesterday and when you all get in and see it for yourselves you will be mightily impressed. So much thought and hard work has gone into this and Levy and his team deserve the utmost credit. I am so glad we did not have cost as the first and only decision maker, as there will be precious little to regret at a later date in my opinion.For anyone lucky enough to be there, what was your impression of the intimacy / degree of enclosure of the ground (if you know what I mean)?
