    Anyone know which blocks are the designated standing blocks (at the back). The email from the club says the rear of the 3 blocks behind the goal. But when you look at the map, only blocks 133 and 134 are directly behind the goal. So which is the third one?

    I have bought right at the back of 131 and am now concerned that anything to the left of the goal, we'll have to stand anyway to see if block 132 to our left is a standing one.

    Hope 132 isn’t as I bought at the back of there! Thought it was 133, 134, 135 :confused: It’s stupid it didn’t say.

    The 3 blocks behind the goal are as you say 133, 134 and 135.

    It's all as clear as chuffing mud.

    Beginning to regret buying in haste. Should have waited like others are doing.

    Anyone know what my chances are of arranging a swap if I ring Ticketmaster tomorrow?

    You know that for sure do you? 132 is exactly the same position in relation to the goal as 135 is.

    I reckon the stewards will have a job on getting people to sit down on the back rows all the way along if 3 blocks are allowed. By definition, those standing will block the view of part of the pitch for those sitting in the adjacent block.

    132 and 136 start to curve around whereas 133, 134 and 135 are all straight.

    133 and 134 are both standing and singing. There were about 20 in total free along that section in back third about five hours ago.
