Well copped there! Going by that I will on the goal-line in 727. I dont think there is a bad view in the ground apart from those seats in the last few rows of the lower tiers. The ceiling is very low and once I had to look around the corner of the pillar to see the hill goal.Quote:

So for anyone whose tickets have yet to arrive you should be able to sort it out like that. This is of course assuming that you can get through. To get mine sorted I went to their offices myself as I work nearby. I was in the reception for about 20 minutes and the two girls on the working there were never off the phone taking queries about tickets during that time.
Yeah heard the very back of the lower tier is a joke as upper tier blocks a lot of your view. Must be worse for GAA matches with far more lofted balls than footie or rugby (well maybe marginally in footie's case :rolleyes: )Quote:

Mine came DHL to house(luckily someone was home by chance!) instead of work address last Thursday. Section 321 Lower Davin
Correct, it will be on the edge of 326. I'm in the cusack 311 and that's pretty much on the goal line i think (and hope!).Quote:

Yeah its the ticketmaster map that makes it look like 328 as its not in proportion at all like it puts 311 in more of a 313 position. There would've only been 5 sections fully between the goal lines in that case, its not a tennis match we're going to see ! :D
Where I was sitting in 302, seat 25, was in line with just outside the peno box rather than behind the goal line. Better than I expected. I would say the hill edge of 302 might've been in line with the goal line at worse it certainly wasn't the middle of 303. Should've brought shades / cap / visor for action at the far end though.
Well my seats were ****e!!! The Atmosphere around us was ****e!!! The plonkers in front of us, Singing who are u, Who are u, What a shower of wallies and anyone that was involved in that should be ashamed of themselves.
Lower Davin Stand Row WW, Right at the back could only see the lower stands. A\nd stuck there again for the wednesday night.
Bleeding FAI have alot to answer for.
How can they answer for the layout of the stadium, or not being able to put everyone on the halfway line???!Quote:

FAI didn't sell the first 6 odd rows of the Lower Davin (behind the goals at least).
(rare) bit of credit to them, the IRFU had no problem selling these seats at full price.
Row NN of Lower Davin view actually wasn't too bad, can imagine the seats further back under the overhang are poor enough, as evidenced by the LCD teles that hang from the roof to show people whats going on.
Exactly One!!Quote:

Not 100% sure about this, but i think those seats are left empty because of some UEFA giudeline regarding the advertising hoardings - or maybe thats just the Champions League?Quote:

Is that UEFA rule not minimum distance from pitch to ensure safety? Which obviously doesn't apply in Croker given the pitch dimensions.Quote:
