It surely depends how far back the back is! I’d generally be fine at the back (though I prefer about 20 rows from the front), but not at places like Anfield.

I think we’re agreeing but not reading each other’s posts properly! I didn’t say I rock up at KO time. My dad taught me well that you have to be in position a good hour before the game starts! I’ve been late a few times, though ......
