Restricted view at Anfield

Post by scouseclaret » Thu Feb 28, 2019 9:14 am

These are all there are left by the looks of things. Anyone any experience of how restricted the view is?

Thought it was about the strength of our defence, not giving them a sniff at the goal!

Think that you just may lose sight of the ball if it's booted high into the air at our end.

It was ok under Coyle as the ball tended to be on the ground. Under Dyche you wont see much of our hoofball but I'm sure Liverpool will pay some entertaining stuff you can watch and enjoy

If you are right at the back and those in front of you stand so you also have to, the slope of the roof may mean you can't see the far end very well. It's not good.

I got some 2 rows from the back last season, it was OK, as said though if it goes high you can’t see it. Good for the atmosphere though

If you’re on the back row it is easily the worst view I’ve ever had to endure at a football match. I cant believe they’re allowed to sell them. In fact everyone who was in them ended up moving and standing elsewhere tbh.

Not worth it

When we lost 4-0 there under Coyle, you could not see a thing

Yep, the one time we got them, I wish we'd not bothered.

Everybody in front stood up and that meant we could see about a third of the pitch.

Worst view I've ever had of (part of) a game.

Scandalous that they sell them.

I couldn't even see that because you were in the way.

I suppose it depends how far back you are, how tall you are, and whether everyone stands up. These are a few pictures of people moaning on a Twitter.

My view on the back row in 2015 was easily the worst view I've ever had at a stadium. It felt like I was watching the game through a letterbox.

Same letterbox view at Everton if you're stuck at the back of the lower stand, it was my first ever trip to Goodison a couple of years or so ago and we ended up there, very claustrophobic with the low roof and I couldn't believe the view from a PL stadium could be so bad.

To make it worse, we lost and had a man sent off (Barnes I think)

If it's right that we've nearly sold out already then it looks like the wrong decision to take the reduced allocation. Tbf I thought 1800 for a Sunday lunchtime on TV wouldn't be far off.

I’ve sat behind the goal there and could hardly see anything. If you stand up to try and see you get thrown out !

Worst view I’ve ever had the pics say it all you need to be either very small or you’re bent double just too see into the behind the nets half . Last time there ( 1-1 with Pope in nets) was ok as we didn’t get it out of our own half in the 2nd half

Apparently they have a few private boxes for away supporters with settees to hide behind.
