Paid a visit to the Amex today and bloody hell it awesome. I'll try to add some pics if i can work out how but sorry for the quality but they were taken with my iphone.
Learnt loads about the running of the Amex and a few extra snippets i thought i would share, if this has been said before then sorry.
The pitch has been sown but the soil is really spongy, this reduces injury. The pitch will be fully grown by the 23rd June and including the drainage and undersoil heating and sprinkler system has cost £670,000. 6 new natural light lamp systems have been ordered to keep the pitch in perfect condition. The linesmen will run on astroturf and the tarmac between the astroturf and stands will be blue.
The concourses will show highlights of the game straight after the match, these will be edited during play (the Amex will have 400 tv's)
The away end will serve beer local to that area.
The supporters bar will hold 300 and will be first come first served.
The east stand will have a restaurant which will be open all week.
The concrete walls between the outside of the stadium and walkway will be covered in 22 pictures of past Albion Legends
