Magnificent stadium. Truly magnificent. Concourse at half time was chaos though of course part of that is everyone going down there for the novelty.

Was weird. Felt like we were playing in someone else's stadium at times, but will just take a bit of getting used to considering it's so vast compared to GP.

Incredible.

Really hits you how big it is when you get out there.

Hopefully as has been mentioned the concourse stuff could be improved a bit.

I think the concourse problems will ease as 1. the novelty wears off, and 2. the staff learn where things are in the tills better.

Up in the level 3 of the East Stand was bad though. One food stand serving 9 different food things that the staff taking the orders then had to work out where to collect food from. Even splitting it in two down the middle would make it easier for staff.

And the auxiliary 'self pour' drinks stations only ran for about an hour.

Beautiful

Spectacular

I was sat in row 2 in the North stand right behind the goal. Jordan Pickford is fucking mental

First row of the upper south stand

From the family stand in the North West corner. I was on the back row backing on to what I think might be the commentary box?or some sort of media/corporate area

Was delighted with the view

The budweiser red banner was an abomination, wasn't it?

Haha did scream Anfield at first glance!

Thought it felt a bit like Wembley but closer to the pitch

first time at the stadium and a fantastic experience great view from the south stand - bramley moore can create a great atmosphere
sound system was brilliant
found my stone with all my brothers on it - beautiful moment
budweiser was great - nice and chilled
and as for the 30 mile pie - yes please - they actually sold out
had my photo taken by a lovely roma family and i took theirs too after the game
enjoyed the walk down from lime street to the ground with a few refreshment stops on the way
missed 20 mins of the 2nd half as got stuck in the bar - the singing was great

My observations.

A brilliant location. The vibe round there was great and credit to all the people working in the bars as they were putting everything into it.

Was quite a few places popping up that I didn’t know about so there’s a decent amount of choice for a drink round there. Although when it got to one o’clock it was a nightmare to get served anywhere. I think over time it will ease as a lot of people will start in town.

We went to the plaza at around half past. Great atmosphere there but the queues for a drink were ridiculous. Need to get more bars.

South stand concourse is incredible. So many bars so you don’t have to queue up long, but they did run out of ale at the end of the game.

Biggest issue is the toilets. How have they made them smaller than Goodison? The queues again, we’re so long.

It’s going to take a while to get used to it and to make it feel like our ground but we will get there.

Sandhills wasn’t an issue for me but I got there early on and left late on. Can barely remember getting the train home what am I like lol.

I was right at the back of the lower, same side

Loving all these photos, the stadium looks absolutely incredible

Happy with my spec. West stand upper.

Don't think there is a bad view in this stadium though. No more posts in the way anyway!
