The front few rows of the Colin Bell Top tier offer the best view in the stadium, IMO. Even better than the second tier corporate seats, especially towards the middle. Also, you have the sun and wind at your back and nobody jumps up when we attack, spoiling the view. It's full of lifetime City regulars, too.
As you get towards the back it starts to feel a bit too far from the action, like the top of the new Kippax did.
thanks for the info mate. looks like me and the missus are towards the back of the stand, block 329 r840, but thats the only tickets i could get with us sitting together but im not too bothered.
