Just been past EP this evening and they are installing blue lights (or blue filters to the lights) in the Cheadle End. Apologies for the slightly crappy photo: They look nicer but are they as practical? If you look at the far end where the original lighting is still up, the difference in visibility is massive.

I’d hazard a guess the colour is variable. I’m expecting some Molineux style light show ahead of night games now 😀

Can I put a request in for an upgrade of the sound system if we're splashing the cash on the ground? Ours is really crappily tinny - if we could get one with some decent bass, we could really go to town with the run-out music.
On which subject, can we go classical? Would love Ride of the Valkyries, but it comes with a bit of, ahem, baggage, especially at the moment. So why not copy Sunderland*? Imagine timing it so that the teams emerged at this point (below). And over an upgraded sound system? And with a light show?
*They weren't the first anyway. The Smiths, amongst others, used it as walk-out music, I believe.

The Sunderland documentary on Netflix had a great scene on the ‘running out’ music most recently.

I think of The Apprentice when I hear that now. Its not the first thing Alan Sugar has ruined. Won't be the last.

Or, given a new bassy sound system and light show...

I cannot wait to be back in EP.
I'm willing to go 2 hours early and spend stupid money in the concourse - then fully willing to lose my voice before kick off singing all the songs we've waited so long to belt out.
45 minutes of "Jimmy Gannon's Blue 'n' White Army" anyone?

Threatening to sing has likely just put you on the naughty list !! 😀

Apologies for the slightly crappy photo: I've just hit "Quote" so the picture shows up on this thread again. I may have created an embarrassing stain in my underclothing when I first saw it.
