kdncfc 0 Posted February 21, 2010 I was in block m of the Jarrold yesterday and imo it is the best view in the stadium, not much better than the flask and blanket stand in terms of noise levels though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ncfcstar 287 Posted February 21, 2010 I sit in Block K, right on the half way line, about 3/4 of the way up the stand. It is by far and away the best view in the whole stadium, I''ve sat everywhere else and for pure viewing capability it is just brilliant. The atmosphere isn''t too bad as well, because it is mainly season ticket holders there is a bit of banter. Just don''t sit too far down because you begin to end up sitting completely level with the pitch. I sit in Row HH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus a nice view of the cathedral! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NCFC_Thain 0 Posted February 21, 2010 Used to sit there, moved to the Barclay due to atmosphere and cost, in terms of view you don''t get much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kissthebadge 0 Posted February 21, 2010 I sit in block K too and it is a cracking view. I am considering bringing my son next season and therefore would probably have to relocate to the family area. I am very reluctant to give up my great view though. A dilemma I need to solve in the next couple of weeks............... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raunds canary 214 Posted February 21, 2010 sat in block h yesterday with an asian southampton fan attending his first ever football match . The southampton fans took great pleasure near the end with their " whose the w****r in the hat " not realising he was one of them! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hooleyfan 0 Posted February 21, 2010 I''ve sat all over the ground and front row Block K Jarrold is the best, for me. You look right down the players tunnel, can really appreciate the football, almost touch it...and can speak personally to the players, as well as the linos when they completely get it wrong...but best of all it''s the space to leap up and celebrate when we score. Perhaps we dont have the vocals of the Barclay and the Snakepit, but I get all that at away games... I dont care what the weather throws at us, its Special K for me!!!

I sit in Row HH.[/quote]Mainly agree with you ncfcstar.I''m in Block K, about a dozen seats to the right of the halfway line towards the Barclay and two-thirds of the way back from the pitch. It''s a brilliant view and very much the same as we see on TV. The club in their wisdom have classified Block K as '' premium '' so there''s no reduction in price for children, students or OAP''s. As a result most fans in there are probably at least in their 40''s so even if younger fans are prepared top pay full whack they''ll have to get used to the age gap !!Despite the fact that many of us have seen better days there is a reasonable atmosphere and we regularly join in the choruses of , " Come on you Yellows " and " On The Ball City " although we do normally wait politely for a lead from The Barclay or Snakepit. If you''re looking for the chance to, " Let''s all have a disco " then you''ll be disappointed but for the more '' mature '' fan it''s pretty ideal....

Philipo87 0 Posted February 21, 2010 Block K is by far the best block in the stadium if you are after a good view. I used to have my season ticket there before I went to uni. If i didnt now play football on Saturdays I would definitly get my season ticket back in block K. I used to sit directly on the half way line near the front. A bit of advice though. Dont get tickets too near the front as there are a few people sitting down there who like to be centre of attention and seem to think they are comedians when they really are not! So if your going for block K, make sure u are a few rows back at least! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

adycanary 0 Posted February 22, 2010 Block N, quite near the back, cracking view, take my lad to all games, as there was no price reduction in block K I went for N, If you like a bit more atmosphere would probably go for block J if you can get it, I tried during movers and shakers last year but was told no season tickets available in there. Some people around me don''t seem to want any excitement on a Saturday afternoon, will try to move to J again this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
