Front Row V Wigan

Glue + Arse + Seat = the only way to stop them chucking you out. Could barely stand to celebrate a fucking goal!!

If you're in 28 upwards your view is blocked by the subs warming up. :x

Funny you should do this post , i have just booked my seat and noticed it's a front row seat

Not really sure if it will be a good thing or not as i have never sat in the front row before.

Never done it at a home game but did it at Villa Park against Wolves in 98 and the view was absolutely abysmal! My eye level was about the same height as the players knees. Had absolutely no perspective of what was going on. My sister & Dad were on TV though…

Front row of the upper tier is good, especially if you are above the loosing away fans....... :barscarf:

Front row of the lower tier good for close up views of the players (yummy :wink: ) but no good for seeing down the other end of the pitch. :evil:

I've been in the front row twice, once behind the goal and once on the side.

The view behind the goal is absolutely horrible, on the side it's ok.

Never been front row at our shiny new Conglomerates Stadium (only been CL so far), but often got front row seats at THOF.

Behind the goal was shit when we were attacking the other end but great at our end.

Side front row was ok but you couldn't see shit of the corner down the other end and because of the camber on the pitch the players on the opposite wing looked like they had no legs from the knee down... :lol:
