Yes, it was flat yesterday. The lack of crowd atmosphere was mentioned a number of times by the commentary team. To be fair there wasn't that much shown on the pitch to get excited about. Hopefully the weather will improve for the DW game.

Loved it!! Game wasn't the best. England were poor, defended well, but very poor going forward. The stadium was great. The Fan Zone was a laugh, and was easy to get a pint to. My 8 year old lad loved it. Although £9 for popcorn was an absolute disgrace!! Even my lad looked surprised. haha. Id expect a full wheely bin full for that!!

Thought it was crap to be honest. Definitely not fit for football/rugby. WHU fans will be disappointed I think.

Zero atmosphere and I don't think that will change given the design of the stadium and the proximity to the pitch.

Also, if your up in tier two, there's about 8 flights of stairs to get back down to the toilets on the ground floor, and no kiosks on the upper levels either so same again.

Reasonable views.

Rubbish PA.

Plenty of food and drink outlets, if a little expensive.

Stadium had a 'not quite finished' feel about it.

Atmosphere quite flat, due in part to there being a lot of 'newbies' in the crowd. Hammers fans behind us and a group from Broadstairs next to us.

Dour arm-wrestle of a game definitely for the purist.

Very entertaining watching Arsenal Al arguing with a stadium jobsworth over the removal of his flag.

I liked it. Should make it our London home and play there once each series/Four Nations/World Cup whenever they're in this country.
