Where is everyone congregating in the new stadium?

I'm a persistent stander and can't image watching salford any other way so ill be using the facility behind the goal

But I have spoken to a few and this dilemma runs deep ill tell you...

Myself and the few lads I go to home games with have gone for the South stand as in the summer you will have the setting sun behind you, I'd guess that the North stand is where most visiting fans will congregate.
Did get told in the shop that the South stand is where most ex shed dwellers are heading, you can though change at any point in the season if you don't like it.

I'd guess East or West, very much doubt it would be in the main stand?




Anyone confirm this?

Yeah need to know this as well. You have to state your stand on the new application form.

No the north stand is to your left if you were sat in the biggest main stand where the hospitality is, you'll have the sun directly in your eyes for long periods stood in that stand. I asked the girls in the shop which was the stand most were going for and they pointed out the one I expected them too rather than me ask was it the South stand.

I hadn't realised the earths axis had moved so much? Better go check my compass or might not be able to find my way home tonight!

isn't the big stand north stand? I dont have the promo stuff to hand?

I don't have any promo stuff but guess that couldn't be trusted anyway. However the last time I checked the big main stand was facing south so yes it would be the north stand.

West stand is the big stand. In summer the sun sets in the north west, so south and east stands will have it in their faces (though south stand will probably be in the shadow of west stand anyway). The bumf that was sent out earlier this year to existing season tickets detailing the multi-year offer states (and I can scan if anyone wants)What's Available

So according to that the main home fans terrace (so I assume the "Shed End"icon_wink.gif is the north terrace, though home fans can buy in the south terrace if they prefer.

To the op , Sore subject with me . John Wilkinson at the end of season award night mentioned there would be an open day so supporters could pick their spot at Barton .its not happend for whatever reason which leaves me in a dilemma .Standing behind the sticks , possibly not a good view going off the size the terrace but more flexible regarding taking a mate along for game.Both stands along the wings offer a better view but you buy your season ticket and your assigned a seat, pre mentioned mate ends up on his lonesome elsewhere.

Ah didn't realise they based it on the point of compass the sun sets rather than actual points of the compass.

The two sentences are unrelated. I'm just stating what the big stand is called - I've not actually looked how it lines up to a compass - and stating which stands will have the sun in their faces on summer evenings as somebody raised it (if indeed those stands line up nicely with a compass like the Willows does).

Unless the compass on Google earth and the seperate app I have on the Eyefone is wrong it's pretty much dead on, was stood on the path at the canal side and checked and it's pretty acurate.

Pretty much dead on to facing west?
