  • Unfortunate oppose. Unfortunate because we could do with some FPs from this part of the world, but there's a bit too much about this that doesn't quite make it IMO. Overexposed to blown sky, perspective distortions and the entire bottom corner of the field being cutoff - I may be willing to overlook some issues, but that's a bit too much. It's understandable that parts of the stand would be lost, but for a view like this you really want the whole playing field at least. On a more general point, even though you're too far away to really see much action, I kind of feel I would rather have it taken during the game rather than as what looks to be just the first team (though admittedly the home team) runs onto the field. --jjron (talk) 14:17, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Jjron. This is a bad choice for a panorama. The image also features people that should be blurred off to prevent problematic complains. ZooFari 00:49, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Jjron. A good effort but lacking in a few key areas (blown sky and incomplete view of the ground). Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 07:35, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - I find myself agreeing with Jjron. It is indeed a nice panorama, though. –Juliancolton | Talk 02:47, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
