Best seats in the house?

Must surely be FRONT row centre of the Upper West. Quite jealous of those who managed to get in early to get one of those (hands up!).

A bit strange that that stand is only in price group B - when it seems to be the most popular (or maybe that's because it's price group B!)

Depends if you want a pleasant view or some atmosphere.

ZZZzzzzzzzzzz

It's generally accepted West Upper will have both.

That said, lets hope the North atmosphere can fill up and match it. Despite the view and higher roof there is no reason why the Kids in the North can't make a right Din

Centre of WSU has large TV gantry area in front of it, and so is set back 4 rows from the front of that stand. So not sure that it will end up being best view in WSU until can actually check out the view. Gut feel is would rather be just off centre but right at the front if I had the choice!

The best seats in the house will vary from person to person I am sure. I can see the attraction of the back rows of the North for sure, although anywhere central in the West or East probaby offers the best views

The directors box is the best seats in the house I imagine.

Followed by the seats immedeatly to either side I would expect.

Our group is 4 rows from the front of the WSU, with 3 aisle seats, midway between the halfway line and the penalty area (Block C). This is almost exactly where I wanted to be. Front row of WSU in this position would have been great, but those had already gone obviously. I'm happier than a dog with two dicks at where we are though, aside from being 4 rows back instead of front row, it is perfection.

Its all a matter of choice. I consider WSU to be too high up and too far away from the pitch which is why I have a seat at the rear of WSL. Atmosphere?????????? We may have to work a bit on that.

Ken Brown said this morning that Tony Bloom has said that if he was a paying supporter :lol: that he would choose West Upper Centre. Does anyone know where the directors are sitting? Is it middle tier or lower tier?

I am pretty sure from what I recall from the 1901 presentation that the directors boxes are centre of the middle tier, flanked by the 1901 Platinum seats.

Its not, well not at the front anyway. I've stood there.
I'd say its roughly equivalent of looking down out of a 2nd storey window. High enough to get a nice perspective, close enough to see the action.

Its not WEMBLEY.

I'm currently back row of c block at withdean and planning on west upper somewhere near the back, obviously a bit higher but expect the view to be pretty similar tbh what with no running track.....

The goal end stands in any ground are the worst in terms of perspective/foreshortening when the ball's up the other end, and so unless there's an exceptional atmosphere at those ends/they are where the vocal fans are going to group, then the only real attraction of going north or south at the Amex would be seeing goals scored up close surely?
