Done the old stadium tour lastnight 07:56 - May 8 with 1424 viewstextbackup

Place looks so different to when I last done it (10 years ago)

The little things, standardised font throughout, the consistent black paint, the blue lighting.

The main bloke running it had plenty of enthusiasm too, and a few facts that I didn’t know.

Well worth it if anyone was ever in two minds.

Couple of bits they didn’t do that I hoped they might;
- show us in the new tv studio (above tunnel)
- show us the refs changing room
- show us an executive box in the pioneer stand (any one, just so people could see what they were like)

The Pioneer executive boxes are basically a dining room with some cupboards and a TV one end, the one I was in had a couple of signed shirts on the side wall, and windows and a door out to the designated seats in front of said windows at the other.

Nothing special really.

It’s probably to stop people taking a dump in the refs room

Not that anyone would that, obviously

I did it last year, before all PL works and we went into refs changing room and one of the boxes so strange they've dropped that - in refs room my kids were able to hold up subs board and press the button for the bell to tell players it's time to go on pitch

I’m doing it next week as a member of the ITFC Business Network. I’m expecting it to be quite different even from the last time we did it which I think was early last year.

Wonder if there’s some bizarre Premier League rule that says no other people allowed in refs room or something as like you say they took you in it last year and it was small, they’ve made it a lot bigger now I think.

The executive box they used to took you in was Ed’s one before he moved this season and had it specifically designed!

There was a subs board on the island in the home dressing room, wasn’t allowed to touch it tho.

KMs office is massive (the old old away dressing room) for a dressing room it’s tiny tho!
He had a full stocked beer fridge in there which was nice to see.

I’m upper north so a way from the pitch, first time I’ve been that close since it got done, it’s incredible isn’t it.

I did it the other week, first time in many years.

Ground looks great, it's night and day from the Evans era.

They mentioned that the TV studio was planned / hoped to be included in future tours so that would be something to look out for.

When I did it (banter era) the guy doing the tour was incredibly sarcastic and dissed the club a lot. It was very surreal

Was too easy to take the piss then!

My guy lastnight had the right level of cheesy jokes (jabs at norwich) and then some good knowledge. Being a town fan helps of course.
Turns out 3/4 years back he sat behind me in NSL
