I'll post pics later but I was in U1 for the first half then moved to a spare seat in U9 (restricted view) with Rhi for the second half. Great view of the game from both seats. Could see the far side Annie Road corner flag in the first half but couldn't see it in the second half. I actually preferred the second half (good company of course) but being a bit higher made the view of the match a bit better.

Really impressive stand. Easy to get up on the escalator for the start and no problems queuing for the bogs, or getting a pint and a pie at half time. Food is ok and prices not bad.

Proper hard wearing finishes and some nice touches. Not a fan of the font but it's all carried through and I'm looking forward to my next game.

Just need to do the Annie Road and maybe cantilever out the back of the Kop.

I'm a devout kopite that decided to try 1 game in the new stand. I say decided. More like BT internet issues during the CatC sale made it less of my decision.

Silly me didn't read the signs and went up all them steps as well. I didn't realise it was an option to take either steps or escalator. Was glad for a sit down after that.

The view? I was in U2. The view was brilliant. Miles better than the back of the kop. Following the game? Absolutely brilliant. The sides really are the best way to watch the game.

Didn't feel THAT out of it. Nice view of Anfield Rd. Centenary. Kop. Felt strange not seeing the lower main stand tier but didn't feel out of it which I thought I might.

Atmosphere? I'll leave that for a different thread. It did feel detached up there for this aspect.

I'm delighted with my new season ticket seat - it's in the row immediately behind the press box in the upper, so I get free instant replays of the goals etc on the journalists' monitors, and a great view of the game too. Close enough to still feel involved, but high enough to get a good sense of the shape of the game. Couldn't be more pleased.

Don't know if anyone else is like me in that for many months I've been calling in here at least once a day to check on progress and now that it's done, well there's something missing in my daily routine and for that reason only it's time to start the Annie Road rebuild as soon as possible so we can have another thread like this.

In the meantime you can fill the time by keeping up with the progress on Everton's new stadium.

Gonna be amazing when it's done, so should be a fascinating watch.

Can't imagine Everton having anything like that.  Just doesn't seem even logical with the work they're currently doing on their stadium.

Just a word on the hospitality seats not being sold out.

I was offered tickets in the new 'dugout' section of the main stand for £80 each for the Hull game. A friend had some clients let him down at last minute. Now multiply that by a few people and there could be your reasoning as to why the seats are empty. Empty but still sold.

From the clubs position they're sold (just like STH who doesn't turn up and doesn't give his ticket to a mate)

It only becomes an issue if a vendor consistently has trouble selling them and decides not a to buy them anymore.
