in General Charlton
We all talk about atmosphere in the dark under the floodlights but sunset isn't until about quarter to nine so it will be light for the first half. I can still recall being very phased by that when I turned up for the Ipswich match back in 98.

At least it's grey and murky rather than bright sunshine!!

    They will probably get the lights on earlier if cloudy.

    For real atmosphere they should turn the floodlights off and play in the dark.

    Ah, but think of the atmosphere when we are slugging it out in extra time.

    They’ll need to be careful not to fall over the couple banging in the centre circle.

    Half the lights are 'switched off'.

    It's been dank & dreary all day......plus a bit nippy. Not only will the floodlights be on but coats as well.

    Not if Roland has any say in the decision. Don’t want to be running up the electric bill.
