It looks far better.

 

I did like the old neons when they worked though.

Was in awe when I first saw this as a kid.

That feeling never left whenever it was lit up.

Would love it back, just seeing it still sends tingles down the old spine.

Me too mate, it’d be great to see the lights back although there’ll be a health and safety reason now why we can’t have them.

 

The Jobsworths are probably worried about jumbo jets landing on the pitch, a bit like when Del Boy stuck a beacon on his veranda.

Think they did a half decent job here in terms of making the back of the West Stand look better. Looks way tidier now.

Think the artwork could have been way more imaginative and inspirational though don't you?

 

Something like this might have looked a little less ridiculous?

It reminds me of the late 50’s and 60’s architectural abortion’s that dominate our town and city centres, it has absolutely zero eye appeal, it’s history is incredibly sad, and realistically it is very difficult to get in and out of. Tear it down and replace it with a state of the art stand DC, you can afford it, and you’ve not yet put your stamp on the stadium.
