    The upper tier represents one of the best views in football. It's rare you get an elevated position so close to the pitch. It's brilliant.

    To counter that, the leg room is crap. The person in front had to sit with their head between my knees, a situation no one was comfortable with, but too embarrassed to comment on.

    But the real problem is the bogs. The stand holds 1840. There were 12 urinals (it's actually a trough but it's designed for a maximum of 12 people at one time) plus one proper toilet (think Trainspotting). A woman in front said they had just 3 toilets. Is that even legal? Dunno, but it's ridiculous.

    Wnaker of the day goes to the kid who walked up the steps to the upper tier and spat over the balcony. Disgusting under any circumstances, but it was our fans below you stupid ******* *****.
