wookey Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 Although I havn't seen the actual drawings for the New Stand, only those shown on the website, the slope of the stand looks very shallow. No better or even worse than the Dolman Stand. Does this mean that spectators in the New Stand will see more of the head in front of them than the game? The Millenium Stadium in Cardiff enables each spectator to a full view of the pitch with the slope meaning there are no obstructions. What are the comparative angles of the Millenium, the Dolman and the New Stand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Red Hat Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 I've sat in the Dolman for years and never had a problem with the sight lines. How tall are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How tall are you? ← Are you Colin Stepstone in disguise? Depending on where you're sat in the Dolman to see the full pitch you have to peer around the odd head. You don't have to do that in Cardiff. Now the question was simply "How does the slope of the New Stand compare to the Millenium and the Dolman Stands? Does anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely you're thinking of the Mem, there's quite a few ODD heads there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the view should be great (or as good as a view can be from behind the goal). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
