The two guys that have season tickets in the very top corner (nearest the away end) of the main stand?

Every week I see them right at the back in the corner. Surely there are better seats in the stadium? I sat lower down that section whilst east was being built and view is dire.

Each to their own and that. Just always thought the view wouldn't be that great ( maybe a good thing this season)

The good thing about sitting up there, right by the windbreak, is that when some of the unfortunates that we share the country with come to town, you can't see them. Bonus.

Not being funny but is that not the blind section?

I'm sure there's some sort of loop system in place and the reception there is as good as it gets.

As far as I am aware, there is no loop system at Easter Road. The blind section is at the front of the West Stand, towards the away end.

And have you ever seen :slipper: He's out of breath walking up 5 steps, never mind to the back of the West Stand. :greengrin

I remember taking him to Ibrox and we were in the back row at the top of the Broomloan. It was a total nightmare getting him up there!!!

No way would blind folk be up the back given the latest posts from some about disabled not being seated past a certain row.

Maybe the guys in question haven't told their wives about their STs and being up there they won't be spotted or be on the tv :dunno:

I know one of them and he's best left up there out of the way!

If they are volunteering to sit in a restricted view area just now, what were they doing when Hughes was in charge. Sitting behind the stand altogether?

True.

I sat up there for the game against the Huns on Boxing Day 2009. View was very good, and the added bonus of not seeing a Hun the entire game. My bro had not even got to his seat by the time Stokes fired the first in. Shame that was to be the high point of the game.

Other bonuses were no howling wind/snow/rain and you have a wee shelf behind the seat to lay your jacket on, should you desire.
