I do like traditional grounds in the heart of their community, so in many ways Selhurst Park is a welcome throwback in terms of Premier League grounds. But they really need to sldo something about the away end, because it is by far the worst view in the Premier League (and probably outside). It is almost impossible to see what is going on the far side of the ground, the stand is too low so your view is blocked by those in front. The low sun didn't help (just to be clear I am not blaming Crystal Palace for that!). I think many Blades fans didn't enjoy yesterday's game as much as they would have done because we couldn't see what was going on!
 



Sat in that stand many years ago for Wimbledon v Derby County after Blades at Ipswich Town had been postponed, 1997(?), just as we were about to catch the train at Liverpool Street. The view hasn't changed at all by the look of it.
 
Don't know what was worse for me the view at tax funded stadium in east London or that yesterday. What with the sun and the unit of a bloke in front regularly standing on his seat I couldn't see hardly anything of the far end first half. Got showered in hot chocolate n all when we scored which was an odd experience...cheers for that. Our lass wondered why I've got numerous brown chocolaty stains down the back of my coat this morning
 
The Concourse is simply not built for 3000 fans either. With all the money swilling round there has to be some minimum standards set - there were fans in wheelchairs getting trodden on (by myself) which is frustrating as I didnt even have space to do the kidney punch as per
Mate should have done what I did just tip em out then kidney punch em.........o_O

In all seriousness it was the worst away end for viewing a game I’ve been in for a long time.
 
Even standing up the view was shit and you had to keep moving to get a view. It reminded me of standing in the old fashion terrace

There was a time when one would have been too ashamed to say the brown stains were a result of watching United, but in these glorious times you can now turn round and say to the missus, "Luv, don't worry, it wasn't coprophilia this time."
