Doubt it our fans are not animals. Perhaps a separate entrance?

Not sure it could work in practice as it would be as easy as pie to forge a 1901 season ticket so there would have to be more scan facilities.

And would Southern's own non-football first class ticket holders get the same or better priority ???

The West Lower concourse after is freezing. That and the fact that in the lounges there is carpet and often seats means it is far far more comfortable than simply standing around in a bland concrete bunker

Just shows how lucky we are in the West Upper. Rather than bland concrete we have beautiful views over the downs, and there aren't any open doors so it's nice and toasty.

Indeed we are. After the game the WSU is definitely the place to be in the winter months. The WSL is a fridge!

It's only a matter of time now until the WSU concourse returns to sauna-like conditions as the sun comes out towards the end of the season.

I'm not sure those tickets are available for sale though are they? Only Platinum 'normal' and Gold.

No idea if currently on sale. They were on sale when the scheme was originally launched though.

Nothing to write home about.
Unless you pre-order half time drinks, there is still a mad scramble at the bar to get served promptly.
Give it a swerve.

It's probably so warm because of the hot air rising through the floors from those 1901 lounges. But yes, we are spoilt up in WSU.

ESU doesn't have quite the same problem..but looking at the forecast for saturday a baseball cap will be necessary if one wishes to see the game in the first half

Pretty sure the under 21 game was not included. Can't see why else I would elected to sit in the East Stand. And not sure friendlies are included either?
Your quite right...Only cup games involving the first team come under the extra game rules....have got in on friendly games...at a reduced cost...you have to have two seats 1901 for a car parking spot...it's all about comfort in the lounges...some fans like the raw emotion of the hustle and bustle of the North Stand and like...but when you've done that and age and health make you wish for comfort 1901 is the way to go...in fact thinking of getting another 1901 seat...each to their own...

Friendlies are included, so long as they are not testimonial matches. It is all Albion first team games.
