Impressive - that was Paul Teal's verdict of the facilities at the Kingston Communications Stadium, after spending Saturday afternoon with members of the press at Hull City's recent game against York.
Kingston Communications, the Stadium sponsor, have teamed up with the Tigers to offer their staff a chance to win a series of special 'Red Letter' days, and 29 year-old Paul, a Customer Service Engineer for KC, was the first to win one of these unique experiences.
Stepping into the 'glamorous' world of football media for the day, Paul and his wife Louise, both avid City fans, spent the afternoon cheering on the Tigers from the press box which gives an unrivalled view of the action.
After the match, the lucky couple were then taken behind the scenes and into the players tunnel to meet manager Peter Taylor.
"It was a fantastic experience, even better than we imagined," said Paul. "The facilities at the Stadium are so impressive.
"It was great to go behind the scenes and meeting Peter Taylor was definitely a highlight.
"And we now know that the world of media isn't quite as glamorous as most people think!"
