So were we. Right behind the goal, excellent view and even a wall to lean back on.
Did you not think there might be one waiting for you?

I too was up in row LL pretty much behind the goal, great view from up there. No idea if the seat was any good, closest I got to sitting in it was leaning on the back bit at half time.
The North Stand was built in the late 1970s, and the facilities are now well, well out of date. I've sat upstairs there once, and woiuldnt do it again (I am 6'2 so it is a challenge in terms of legroom).
The club have worked with HOK architects on a new stand design, and it is expected to be demolished and rebuilt in the next 2 years or so.

It was unallocated standing. Why didn't you move to stand where your mates where, unless they were in a different stand of course.

I was a bit surprised at the way the tickets were allocated but to be honest it was a great view and the day was one of the best following the Albion.

It was unallocated seating?? No-one told me that. Or indeed, everyone else. Including the stewards. Were you there?

Very happy thanks

Once I convinced my thouroughly law-abiding 9 year old that it really WAS okay for him to stand ON his seat, all was fine, and we all had a perfectly good view

I think wherever you sat/stood you had a good view of the pitch. The only think I was a bit gutted about was that I was in a seat as far left behind the goal as you could go so was slightly out of the atmosphere. Still good though.

Haha of course I was there; people were standing where they wanted to - I call that unallocated standing.
In the North Upper of course, maybe it was different in the Doug Ellis?

I was in Lower Doug Ellis and was stood in the isle when on about 20 mins a steward asked to see my ticket then told me i had to move as this ticket wasnt for this seat...
after i pointed out the seat number and row matched my ticket he duely and redfaced wandered back the steps!!
i did end up in the second half with a group of pals right at the back of lower standing on a chair and no one bothered me, i think the stewards were just being safety conscious about the isle being blocked?!?!
