The problem is the view is very different at Hull KR compared to those as it doesn't have the banking and you are low down so don't get a decent view. Not my problem thankfully as at a family do in the Midlands anyway.

Yes but no height on terracing = no view

IIRC from standing on there fiddling with an erection once, you get a good view upto the opposite 40m line and then you struggle.

Anyone who went to Bloomfield Road circa 2002 will know how far their away end was from the pitch and you could just about see the other end. I'm sure if you search "Mike Flynn v Blackpool" on YT you'll find a video showing it, otherwise on this picture the big pole thing is round about where the fribt row was.

If you buy tickets from HKR you can print them at home or pick them up so no hassles. Their fans said plenty of Wakey fans stood in the Well where I've booked tickets for and I'd expect a good few Wigan fans to do the same.

It sounds like it's worth the extra £4.

The South Stand was originally erected as part of the "multi-purpose" use of the stadium during the 90's. We had a dog track AND a speedway track running around the outside of the pitch, so that gives you an indication of how far away it is from the pitch. It isn't fit for purpose, but is a necessary evil for us at the moment unfortunately. Try and upgrade to the well if possible.

I would say pay the extra money for the Well. Lot better view and from the sounds of it hopefully will have quite a few away fans in there so will not feel alone.
Always look forward to seeing Wigan play. Great team to watch usually and fans always attend in there numbers

Get y'sen in The Well - we had a few Trinity fans with us a couple of weeks back and a good time was had by all...

Safe trip over to all those heading eastward...

Any seats available for old/lazy Wigan fans?

Quote jackdog="jackdog"Any seats available for old/lazy Wigan fans?'" I don't think there are any seats as on the info it only says about the Well and East stand. Sorry www.hullkr.co.uk/on-the-pitch/ne ... chday-info PS Could be worth a phone call as could be a couple of restricted viewing seats left. Possibly still a better view than the south stand

Any idea whether it's possible to transfer to The Well for the extra few quid once you're on the ground, or are they totally seperate areas?

dont thinkk you would be allowed once inside the ground but the ticket office under the millward stand may be able to do that for you ....you could try ringing them on this number tomorrow and they may be able to help you +44 (0)844 2490 105 (1)
