Emirates Stadium questions

Hi guys,

I went to the Emirates a while ago and wish to go again. I've forgotten about the stadium.

what is a good row /seat /stand to sit at?

also which underground station is a good one to park at so I can get to the game?

think I parked at turnpike lane last time was that good?

thanks

Lower tier in general is my preference, much better atmosphere than the upper tier. Good view from most spots, my mate and I always sit behind the goal and next to the away fans - always good for banter

Can't help with the tube I'm afraid, other than I wouldn't imagine parking at one particularly close would be easy.

thanks for that

lower tier it will be

what about the stand?

I shall see if I can find my tickets from before

I know holloway lane gets rammed when there are games
so I shall avoid parking around that area
prob go turnpike lane again

remember you have to leave at half time to just get out of the ground

is there an easy way to get tickets or do you have to be a member of the club?

Some games go general sale, the liverpool carling cup game is one example. Goes on gen sale Monday.

Becoming a Red Member gives you loads of opportunity to get tickets.

yer left at 88 minutes last time
because of the mega rush

damn shame couldn't find those tickets from that game

Your best chance would be an FA Cup match then, which won't be until January at the earliest.

I sit in the upper tier and it's a good view from behind the goal or the side, although the atmosphere isn't exactly rousing.

I usually use the Highbury stop, usually because there's loads of cafe's selling dirty food on the way down

Upper tier has a good view but I was almost embarassed at the Celtic game, being sat right next to that lot belting out songs all match and our lot barely managing any
