I bought my first season ticket today after yrs on the waiting list.
No messing about this morning about 11am. Just got on the phone and bagged a lower tier seat in block 3, row 7.
I've been to many games and sat all over the stadium but never down there so taking a chance but it seems quite a nice spot judging by some of the comments about being up that end on here.
Cheers all
Hmmm...
1. You'll get wet.
2. As this is on the side, you'll get asked to sit down alot.
3. No swearing either, as I think this is close to the family section...
How do I know? You seat is very near where I was in our 1st season at the bowl... good luck,sorry about this, but I fear you'll hate it, I did and that's why I moved.
Sorry Frank but as a long time member of the Family Enclosure, you cannot be futher away from it than in Block 3. It starts at about 23. As for the language, teenagers are allowed in there, and their language is worse than mine, which is saying something.
I'm pretty sure I went into that block the first season I was there, I used to pass by the enclosure on my right on the left was the press area... unless they moved it, you definitely can't stand there but you always get wankers in front of you standing up so it starts the domino effect and I got my collar felt quite regularly for swearing even though I told them I had tourettes... but it only surfaced at football..
Block 3 is the 3rd block ( ) to the left of the tunnel. The FE is near to the corner the right of the tunnel.

Be interesting to see how many didn't renew, sounds like a lot so far!!!
Welcome by the way
Thanks, looks like a good forum
Update on season ticket offer, rang this morning, explained that my ticket is a single and I would like to be near my mates (lowere tier of course) got offered BLOCK 5!!!!! FFA all my wishes come true.
So I am now £990 lighter ( well my credit card is feeling it) and Block 5 row 9 here I come
Sounds to me like there is no more waiting list. Some of the corporates must be shitting themselves. To go from a waiting list when I joined about 10 years ago of about 60,000, to nothing now, is a massive indictment of all involved. This together with the RVP statement might be a turning point! Please god.
I believe that the waiting list is still in excess of 60000 but there a several list within the total. As I was looking for a single ticket I moved up more quickly than a frien of mine you is looking for a pair. He has been on the list 2 years longer than me but still hasn't been offered a ST yet. In saying that I have been waiting 8 years+

Indeed. Much easier to get seats in prime locations if you only want a single.
