That was good, cheers for posting.

Interesting to hear what GG thought about the Astroturf areas.

Yeh, my understanding about the 3G areas was that we will use the one in the home dressing room, but the away team will not have access to one. That's what I heard anyway, I think it was mentioned during the discussions about the difference between making away fans comfortable and making the away team comfortable.

But the reason that they were included in the specs was in order to meet some kind of eufa standards I believe.

Neither team have a 3G warm up area, they both have a 4G warm up area though.

I've seen the home one, and stood in the away one. Couldn't stand on the home one as it was full of boxes of the new kits

 

[brunswick]

I thought the warm up area was just for Brighton and not for the away team (who then have to start the game all creaky and let in a goal in the first 5 mins)?

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Very good show. Keep up the good work guys.

great interviews ....loving the fact that Gus is proud of the fact that ' No one knows anything' when it comes to rumours of transfers. Clealry something they are keen to maintain with '3 or 4 targets in final stages of negotiation' and a couple likely to be concluded in the next couple of days. All very encouraging......
