Hi I'm just wondering because I am hoping to purchase a season ticket for next season and was wondering where to get it for a great atmosphere, as I all I want to do is stand and sing my heart out on matchdays.

Thanks,

Jordan

The shed lower or the Mathew harding lower.

As a season ticket holder in the shed lower, its the worst place to stand.. This season they've kicked people out for standing up. its a joke. So singing wise yes the shed, but standing up... you've got more chance of standing up in the west stand than in the shed.

If you don't know I'm not sure you should be getting a season ticket.

[Chelseaboi26]

I mean like gate numbers where there is a good atmosphere

There is only one stand for that mate. Matthew Harding Lower. I've got my ST there and I have been standing up for the best part of most games this season with only one warning against Cardiff in the FA Cup.

In stark contrast I had 45 minutes against Stoke in the Shed Upper before I was thrown out.

Never the Shed again.

Exactly. Johnny-come-lately springs to mind. You can't get a season ticket unless you have a certain amount of points, especially for nxt season

Good luck requesting a certain gate to sit in, you'll be lucky to get any seat at all in the MHL and Shed Lower, let alone choose exactly where you sit.

Anyway, I'd recommend the Shed Lower, that's where I sit and I love it!

My first thought entirely.

In any case, anyone would be lucky to get a new season ticket.

Well maybe, but maybe he wants to know exactly the best place (he did say block) to ensure he doesn't end in a crappy spot despite being in the Shed Lower or MHL, there are still pockets without singing. In the Shed it is the wrap towards the West stand and the East Side when the away don't take up their full allocation, and on the MHL I've found the side towards the East to be lacking sometimes in atmoshpere. However of course the recent games have been a phenomenal exception to that rule!

That's true enough. I saw WBA on the far left MH Lower and was able to stay seated for most of the match. You're lucky if you get 5 minutes sitting down if you're behind the goal.

[Jon_Doyle]

Some miserable buggers in here aren't there? He just wants to know where to sit in the Shed or MH, as in gate numbers.

[The Bouncy]

I wonder if he ever got one...

[JayD]

Thought this may be the best topic, just a little strange experience yesterday.
I get into my seat in the MHL, stand up have a bit of a sing for about 45 seconds before some git sat behind me asks me to sit down because he can't see anything.

The whole of the MHL Center stood for the whole game, no issues...and I mean the full 90mins without a steward asking them to sit, as soon as anyone from my section of the MHL stood, stewards where there asking them to sit!

The atmosphere was decent yesterday considering the game was on gen sale, midweek, Carling cup. But it really does do my head in that we don't have the high volume of true supporters that my there where years back before the trophies. It's difficult sitting in your seat and the person next to you is too busy taking pictures for the 90 mins or just on the phone, tickets which could of gone to more loyal supporters.

Rant over.
Oh, and beware of bouncers. Won't comment further.
