Hi K_H, First of all my sincere apologies for not replying sooner, work for several months now has meant I don't get on here as often as I'd like but with the new season about to start it's time I got my priorities right!! The Sir Trevor Brooking Stand (the old Centenary Stand/North Bank) is the official family area, but if I were you I'd go for the West Stand Lower or the East Stand although it does tend to get a bit "sweary"(!) the nearer you are to the away support. Are you going to the Bolton game? Claret's over from New Zealand and another guy who used to post on here (I think) years ago, Skaff is coming too, we're going to be in the East Stand and it'd be great to say hello if you are going. Anyway hope that helps mate, and everything crossed for the coming season. All the best, Theresa
Hiya Theresa I just wanted to ask a question re. the ground and thought you might be a good person! I've enlisted as an Academy member this season and have also registered my 10-year-old lad in the Junior Academy, as he is now chomping at the bit to go to a game. Can you advise me as to which part of the ground would be suitable for taking my son? I know there is a family stand but I'm not particularly worried where we go as long as he enjoys it. I'm not too bothered about (ho-hum) industrial language as he's probably heard me use a few choice words when watching the irons on the box! I know you're usually quite busy but I'd appreciate any pointers you can give. Thanks Mike (Kent_Hammer)
