Was just looking on there and noticed Rotherham's new ground . Nice neat tidy ground that i would not mind visiting if we had to travel to a cup game there. The only downer is that nasty excuse of a manager !

Is that El-Abd?

Have they finished it yet?

The BHA entry will very soon need some serious updating.

And it'll be interesting to read next season's away fans' reports on our expanding stadium.
Not to mention the travel & parking arrangements.

Sadly, very few visiting fans yet 'get' the idea that the Amex postively welcomes people staying around for an hour or two, and enjoying the craic. Hardly surprising, given the traditional approach to customer service - aka 'sling 'em all out and lock the gates' - to be found at almost every other ground.

Good RAKE on their seats.

I'm a little perplexed by this build. Great to see a club back in their own backyard don't get me wrong, but has the build been properly planned?



Now, where that middle section sinks below the level of the stands beside it, can those people sitting there view both goals? Or am I missing something? Or is this a fail of epic proportions by the architects and those that approved and passed it?

They can expand it to like 35,000 if they want...

Railway station behind ground - 5 min walk

Falmer station 3-5 min walk from Amex

Do any other clubs have stations this close ??

That wasn't my point, but never mind.

You'd have a good view of kick off, and then little else.

I like the fact they've tried to do something different than the boring bowl or the 4 cowsheds. Shame it's execution seems to be a little off.
