    I like standing but that stand was poor very shallow rake which meant you could only see half the pitch whenever the ball was on the side nearest us unless it was in front of you you couldn’t see it. I think it’s the worst view I’ve ever had at a football match

    Absolutely. Shocking view. Would have helped if we’d played down the middle and not the wings!

    Matchday Drinkers made me laugh. They tweeted that people were singing 'I can't see a thing but I hope it goes in'.

    Worst ground I've been in for the view was Blundell Park. We were invited by a
    Grimsby supporter on hospitality, so we were in the home teams wing stand.
    Our seats were on the next to the back row. The roof of the Stand was very deep
    so we could only see from the nearest touchline the centre spot. It was an absolute
    nightmare and spoiled the game for us.

    Non-league ground.

    But still prefer them any day of the week to Franchise FC.

    Correct. But they 'pinched' the ground from non-league Kingstonian and charge £17 to have either a poor or no view at all is not good. While I have sympathy with Wimbledon for what happened in their past, today's game, for me and others, was spoilt cos of the non view. I realise they need to make money and, by looks may drop to league division 4, but temp stands with a bit more height would be nice.
