So, we changed our ST seats for the first time in years and it's always a gamble about who you're going to be sat next to, especially when the reason for changing them in the first place was to get away from the person you used to sit next to.

Anyway, turns out they're a lovely bunch of people and happy days.

No longer will I have to listen to moaning about players taking the knee or listening to him get Mwepu and Welbeck mixed up and blaming it on the fact that "they all look the same".

It's a blessed relief.

I'd wondered where you were :moo:

Blimey, I had heard it was bad in the east 1901 but no idea this bad?

We’ve also moved and the new neighbours are brilliant.

It’s great in the West Upper too. Most have been there since the Amex opened. A collection of pissheads, farters, shouters, singers, screamers, somnambulists (at least one!) and all true, diehard Albion fans. It’s what football watching is all about. :cheers:

Shouldn't really talk yourself down like that. :lol:

i can understand mixing Maupay and Undav up (well before the pink hair), because the genuinely do look the same , especially at a glance, but Welbeck and Mwepu! Reminds me of the Little Britain character who refuses to understand the Indian woman who speaks with a very slight accent

If only the club would make it easier for people to identify players , maybe sticking Numbers and Names on their shirts or something!

Me and my old man got our first ever ST this season in the West Upper. Never been in there before and was mostly worried about my dad getting up the stairs and my fear of heights! But the neighbours seem decent and the view is great and it turns out my dad appears fitter at 70 than me at 45.

Since we've been at The Amex I've had a right old move around, first three season ESL, fairly central, and then moved to the SWC and dabbled with NS, and then settled in the central area of ESU. Now in my second season in NS and very happy, although when my Sons go on their own / with mates, I'll settle in the WS.

I'm settled in the WSU with a good gang of mates. My 15 year old and my mate's three older teenage sons are still all with us for now. If they ever want to ditch us for the North Stand I'm sure we'll let them so long as they pay for their own tickets, then we can get back to having a good old middle aged moan uninterrupted.

I do like going with my Sons, but at 60 standing up drinking beer with one hand whilst balancing a pie in the other hand isn't as appealing as a lounge and a comfy seat!

We moved out of the 1901 last season, best thing we ever did. East Upper, supposed land of the oldies, but actually in our bit (North end) it is reasonably lively.

View as good as 1901, if not better as you are looking at West Stand, and for half the price. No idea why we suffered 10 years of 1901 in the first place.

Another for EU. Great view and find it good looking at West Stand. Saturday proved the sun not an issue..

I'm worried after missing the first two home games due to a wedding and a festival, when we eventually get back the group of 15 lads occupying 4 seats behind us haven't taken up residence in our spot
