Where I sit in the East stand is brilliant, it's raised up about 4 rows from the front and the rows in front are low down enough that even if the people in those rows stand up, you can still easily see what's happening. There's also no possibility of people walking in front of you.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
However that's probably not the opinion of everyone as I believe there's a wheelchair section at the very front of the Famous Five stand which must have an awful view and the same in the South stand for away fans. I believe there's still a few spaces in the top tier of the South stand set aside for wheelchairs which would be good. The similar section in the Famous Five stand was taken away when the NHS hub started a couple of years ago and that's now used by the Since 1875 group.
From my own point of view though, I can't really complain.
In terms of the other grounds in the Premiership, I would give them the following out of 10;
Aberdeen - 4/10 - Not a great view although there's no-one walking in front of you. Can't get to any food or drink kiosk on your own. Slightly better that it's at the side stand as opposed to behind the goal.
Celtic - 3/10 - Not a stadium I usually go to in fact only been once and I believe there have been improvements made to the wheelchair viewing area since then so the score would probably be higher now.
Hamilton - 4/10 - Terrible view, pitchside behind the goal, can't see what's happening up the other end of the pitch. People walk in front of you too. Although you do have access to food and drink on your own.
Hearts - 7/10 - One of the better ones. Raised up about 12 or so rows from the front. However people constantly walk past the wheelchair section and often actually stand in front of you at the barrier. Access available to food and drink on your own.
Kilmarnock - 2/10 - Awful view, made even worse now that one of the shelters has no roof after the infamous visit of Rangers at the start of the season. No access available to any food or drink on your own.
Livingston - 5/10 - Not a great view at pitchside and often have people walking in front of you. There is access to food and drink on your own though.
Motherwell - 2/10 - See Kilmarnock - just awful.
Rangers - 8/10 - Very good view, raised up near the back of the away section, sitting with the rest of the support although people do stand in front of you but police and stewards tend to be proactive in moving them on. Access available to food and drink although may not manage back to your seat with it as there's a ramp to go up.
Ross County - 3/10 - Poor view at pitchside behind the goal. I don't believe there's access to food or drink on your own.
St Johnstone - 8/10 - Very good view, no-one in front of you and raised up. Access available for food and drink.
St Mirren - 4/10 - Poor view at pitchside, can't see the other end of the pitch. There is access to food and drink on your own.
As you can see, there's not many I'd give pass marks to.
