    Which stand were you in? I am in the west lower and my usual gate has 20 minute queues but by walking down to the far end you can just about walk straight in.

    Still it's great to be back in the ground, TV is not the same

    Shed end upper, they were asking people for proof of either vaccination or negative Covid test, I found that my NHS app decided to stop working, cue panic, thing is I think perhaps it was because thousands of people in the same vicinity were trying to get access to the app at the same place and at the same time? I dunno I'm not particularly technical when it comes to these things. I scrabbled around for my card, the crowd grew impatient, the stewards kind of 'gave up' and the force of hundreds of people moving forward from behind me propelled me (and everyone else) through the ONE open gate at quite a speed - chaos! I thought the atmosphere last night was pretty good, certainly better than the last couple of pre-Covid trips I made there.

    Started a new gig so wasn't able to catch the game. Seems like the score could have easily gone the other way. We've been missing a true goal scorer for so long that I'm beginning to feel spoiled with Lukaku lol.

    How was Chills seasons debut as a sub? Really thought he would have gotten the start.

    Only came on towards the end and looked a bit nervy which was understandable.

    Lukewarm performance all around - good result. I'll take it.

    Heavy reliance on the Kak so far in terms of goals. C'mon boys, we have the talent to score from elsewhere!

    Yes it is a requirement for entry now although they seemed a bit stricter than on Saturday.

    Ok, I open the app at home get the proof, take the pdf option and download. Then open the PDF when needed as I am double jabbed the pdf is valid for a month. Job done.

    Yes not a bad atmosphere, I guess the away fans were all uk residents

    Lackluster match barring Lukaku and Rudiger's run.
