I went to Villa Park yesterday and was supposed to be in Block P11 Row UU Seat 5, a ticket I purchased in the first allocation. For those in the know row UU is right at the back and P11 is the last block so this seat was just about in the most extreme corner of the ground and right in front was the back of the giant screen obscuring the view of the goal.
My friends bought in the second allocation and were located in a much more favourable position half way down and towards the centre of the upper tier. Fortunately they had a spare seat next to them and I managed to sit with them for the whole game.
How come someone with sufficient points, gained through attendance at away games is stuck up in the gods with a severely restricted view of the goal. Surely the first allocation should be in the best area and although its never good to have a restricted view they should go at the very end.
Just my view obviously.
