Gave up yesterday but went straight on this morning no probs...my seat already sold though, never mind. At least the North stand is open right from the start....
I've probably done the hospitality thing a dozen or so times over the years at various grounds, always been invited by different suppliers from work.. The latest one was West Brom v Chelsea the other week. As it was a Friday night, on the menu was fish n chips, mushy peas and picked egg...and...

The one I have not mastered is headstand...
