    Upper tier is good. Long way from the pitch, but you get a good view of the whole pitch. Get seats near the front of the upper tier.

    I can’t remember colours, but I was sat in the upper tier and thought the view was fantastic. Bit far away, but you get better perspective.

    I was in the upper tier last year, I didn't choose my seat though as I was (unnecessarily) panicking and really hungover and ended up right at the back, which suited me in a way as I was able to stand all game. As others have said you're quite far away but get a decent view of all the action. I suspect if you went to the front of the top tier you'd get a cracking view.

    Not sure if I'm even going to make it now tbh... I'd have thought you'd have been eligible tomorrow?

    Anyone buying tomorrow?

    Incidentally, there is only 4 different categories last year compared to 5 for the EFL final:

    I was block 528 or 529 last year. Roughly level with penalty box... great views. Even though I was the other end, I could clearly see that Gabby was onside :emoticon-0105-wink:

    @Archers Road you sure you're not eligible for this mornings sales for this?

    It's 4 games on top of ST, I know you went to Fulham and Wigan for certain, didn't you do Watford in the cup and another away game too?

    I think the media & especially internet has spawned an exponential increase in weirdos, although I do agree, there must still have been quite a few around previous.

    The ticket system seems to be having its usual problems judging by the tweets. 21st Century Football Club = 19th Century ticket office.

    I have never had trouble with the booking system....touch wood, but then I no longer go to matches in high demand. I like a nice 3 o'clocker at SMS against a team we have a chance of beating.....not been too many of those this season. I have selected the B'mouth game to be graced with my presence...though I haven't seen a win yet. :(

    Was in (and will be again I think) block 224 last year. Problem with Club Wembley is it is mixed so I was sat next to a couple of Saints fans but mainly Utd fans. One of the Saints fans seemed fine, the other was ****ed and had clearly done a Tony Montana impression in the toilets before coming up to the seat.

    He was being ****ing annoying all game including running up to the Utd fans around us when we scored giving it large (one of them tried to jump down from the boxes which was just behind us to fill him in), storming off when we went 2 down after 35 mins or whatever it was to the concourse not to be seen until we had got one back (turned out he had just been smashing pints and lines during this period based on how mortal he was) and knocking over an elderly fan storming off again when we went 3-2 down. Didn't see him again after that.

    In a way a kind of hope hes there again.
