    How restricted was your restricted view?

    Had a restricted view ticket yesterday, and despite not actually being in my seat this was the view from about two yards from where I was meant to be - pillar only obstructed a small area down towards the main stand side corner flag at home end so a pretty good view.



    However, it doesn’t look like one our fans reps had such a good view - Tracey Smith posted this on Twitter from her seat - a shocker!



    Just down to luck really how much you are impeded, but I’ve found section 119 to be fine in last three trips there.

    This photo is not zoomed in. This was my view from row BB seat 21.

    Quite embarrassing for Celtic that they have a stadium with such views. Not good enough in this day and age.

    Yeah but it's bigger than Ibrox and that's all that matters right?

    sitting just the other side of the crazy stewards in the home end was fun watching the hibs fans - got rumbled a couple of times as was tapping away to some songs lol view of pitch was fine, but a modernish stadium with view like the above is disgraceful - guess it's the same for home fans up other end too ....

    Nah, it gets me tickets to every away game. I have the cigars out while others have the stress ball out during the online scramble.

    I think it's bad enough they're actually allowed to have seats with such a crap view, but to then give a discount of only 3 quid is taking the P1ss.

    Everton are the same and they have even worse views from loads of seats.

    Celtic fans in the upper tier right at the back must have a right rubbish view from all those pillars as well, grounds like Celtic Park & Tynecastle have both been done on the cheap to get capacity as high as possible without any thought to the fans that are inside.

    Easter Road with the corners filled in would be by far the best football ground in Scotland.

    Parkhead was built with the simple spec to be bigger than Ibrox. No thought to spectator viewing hence all the pillars in the upper tier of the stand where the jungle used to be.

    That’s a different roof over where the Jungle was surely? It wasn’t that high.

    Of course it is, the upper tier has several pillars. Ibrox is a far better viewing arena and even though it pains me to say it Ibrox is the best stadium in Scotland.

    There's actually some really crap views at Ibrox as well, in the Main Stand. Doesn't bother us as it only affects the home fans though.

    North stand pillars are due to a lack of space.

    Pillars in the East and West stands go down the back of the stand.

    Because of the proximity of the cemetery to the back of the north stand they can't have the pillars coming from the back of the stand as the stand over hangs the grave yard.

    Away stand view is shocking. I'd guess in the next 10 years or so Celtic will replace the Main Stand and connect the south west and south east corners (will just be a single tier as no demand for hugely increased capacity)

    Celtic fans must have a similar view in section 121 in the home end.

    I've sat in the home stand at ibrox, it absolutely is not, it's nowhere near as good as the west or east stand in our Easter Road, even if it is bigger.
