For the life of me, I don't understand this concept.In my opinion there is absolutely no chance you spend a billion quid on a state of the art stadium and not have the first game there televised for the whole world to see.
For the supporters in the stands for that first match - it will only compare to the final match at WHL. It will be glorious win or lose.
For anyone watching on TV - it will be just another match. There is no magic in seeing the stadium for a few minutes on TV. Its still a football match, and that is what the cameras will focus on. MOTD will have as much stadium coverage as any broadcast. Nobody is tuning in just to see a new stadium.
