Gtech Community Stadium Reviews Summary

Stadium Atmosphere

Pros:

• "There is a great atmosphere in the stadium."
• "The atmosphere at the Gtech Community Stadium is electric."
• "Lovely atmosphere! Great compact stadium with a small capacity. But it can get very very loud."
• "Great atmosphere, an interesting design, which is different from so many modern box like stadia."
• "The atmosphere is incredible. The away fans are excited to see Frankball and the home fans are always ready for a Yoane Wissa masterclass."
• "I'll be bias and say the fans are incredible, the atmosphere is electric and singing our hearts out to 'hey Jude' is only the beginning."
• "The atmosphere lit up as the bees won their first top tier game in 74 years and done it against a team that has been there the longest are rivals the gunners."
• "Beautiful stadium but avoid the North Stand. When London Irish play there's a couple of drummers who are best avoided - unless you enjoy ringing ears and a headache."

Cons:

• "There was very little atmosphere in the ground but the mc on the loud speaker tried his best to gee the crowd up, annoyingly."
• "A bit awkward to find on first visit, not immediately visible from the bus from South Ealing stn (odd given stadium size; but it's a very built-up area, surrounded by many high buildings)."
• "The home crowd are, as expected, very partisan but it becomes a bit of a pantomime with them trying to influence the crowd with their Oohs and Aahs during TMO decisions."
• "Good stadium ruined by poor stewarding. It was the first game of the season but the crush at the turnstiles was dangerous and inside stewards were more interested in watching the game than keeping spectators safe."

Stadium Design and Facilities

Pros:

• "The architects have done a tremendous job of placing the stadium where it is."
• "The Gtech Community Stadium has been praised for its design, atmosphere, and facilities."
• "The stadium design is something I’ve never seen before and the way the stands are built, it traps in the atmosphere brilliantly."
• "Incredible stadium, very well designed so that you get a good view without sacrificing the atmosphere."
• "A fantastic state of the art stadium. Where to start? Well, I arrived by bike and locked it up in one of the 75 bike racks."
• "Great new stadium. Not too big so perfect for families. Very organised."
• "Modern football stadium that replaced Griffin Park. Great atmosphere as there is minimal gap between the pitch and fans."
• "A first class medium sized stadium which provides a first class football experience. Facilities are all brilliant and viewing the game is always good regardless of the seat location."

Cons:

• "A basic stadium with standard type seats and a good amount of vending bars."
• "If rain is expected do not sit in the front rows as you will get wet from the rain and the roof run off."
• "Stadium didn't open the doors until one and a half hours before the rugby match I recently attended."
• "Strangely shaped new stadium. No parking nearby."
• "After leaving Griffin Park teary eyed and emotional, this new gem of a home is beautiful. I’ll always miss Griffin Park."
• "Decent enough view for away fans. Charging £1.90 for a small bottle of water on a boiling hot day was disgraceful."
• "The view in the corners of the ground are nearly not worth going for. The options in the food and drink kiosk are poor and very limited."
• "It has been closed down. MUM&YOU's headoffice is in its place. They distribute very good quality hygiene products for babys and useful products for mums."
