Id'd imagine the light show is strictly pre match, much like Wolves and Chelsea these days.

I doubt they will as there will almost certainly be photosensitive epileptics in the crowd.
They can be warned about the pre match light show and advised to wait until 5 minutes before kick off to take their seat. If it goes off during the match then they're not going to be able to attend at all.
Would the club really take such a small number of people into consideration? From a quick look it seems to be about 0.7% of people in developed countries who have epilepsy, of which about 3% have the photosensitive variety. That means you're looking at about 13 people in a capacity crowd at our stadium. And even then most are sensitive to lights flashing 16-25 times per second, which seems much quicker than these are going at. Considering that their new arrangements are an absolute nightmare for people with mobility issues who need to travel by car - having to arrive very early and leave late, making for a very long day out when some might not find that ideal at all - I struggle to see them giving a damn about something so much rarer.

Stacy Soloman? Fuck right off...
I go to football to get away from shit like this. It’s bad enough we’re turning into Tottenham Hipster Football Club with the craft beer and whatever but can they please remember that some of us are over 25? Stick a highlights reel on with a bit of Chas and Dave played over it, flash a few lights and then let’s play some football at long last.

Lol everyone hating on poor stacy. Dunno who she is but are you really going to the game for the music? Doubt she'll even sing her own songs. Do something like when london took over the olympics from china. No bus though.

A quick google tells me she's with that squeeky voiced prick Joe Swash who is a gooner and she's pregnant with his kid.
Imagine the voice of the thing, jeeeeeeez.

Such a shame Chas has died. Would have been great to get them to perform. I remember them doing a set at HT many years ago.

Trust me she's not the young hipsters choice. 30-40 year old mothers watching daytime telly on ITV is more her market.

Some seriously old gits on here. You guys have to embrace change and new thinking like me
Sky wanted to show the opening with out showing the game...

Means more people will get an extra pint or 2 in before the game

Hopefully there will be an announcement downstairs telling us we have 5 mins to take our seats until the teams walk out for the proper stuff to begin
Someone needs to tell Levy that nobody really gives a flying fuck about an opening ceremony, especially when its 6 months late and we are now at the business end of the season

Depends what's planned, doesn't it?
If it's half as good as the Finale then most will want to watch.

What do you guys think would be the attendance roughly for the u18 game? Can't wait to get inside.
