Game watched: Coventry 2-4 Southampton
Cracking day out for everything but the Stadium! Talk about a ground with no character, it's merely a casino with a stadium attached. No atmosphere from the home fans, little surprise as there were probably only 6000 odd of them, they could've had their own row of seats each!
In terms of the ground itself, decent enough facilities, what you would expect from a new stadium. Similarily the out of town location that is common for new builds is not good for those taking public transport aka me. 2 trains and 2 buses to get from Nottingham to the ground. Preferred Highfield Road anyday of the week.
Still loved the game, was a thriller. 2 up at half time and cruising, let them back into it with 2 soft goals then up the tempo and comfortably win.
