    I always assumed most sports stadiums are oriented the same way so the players arent blinded by the sun.
    Either it's north to south or east to west over a 7 hour period to sun is in all different positions and it never seems to be a problem.
    Lords is east to west and there never seems to be any difference in picture quality.

    I wonder if it matches NRL's seating plan & grading re premium seats? If it displays properly this is ticketmaster's seating plan for the stadium:

    Or the season pass seating from their site:

    That's because the sun never shines!

    Well done on getting behind the club in the new era under Ledman Group

    Definitely will consider doing this, enjoy sitting in Bay 58 too but since it is now upgraded to Gold i also might consider moving closer to the middle.

    Nice to see the whole southern end seats as active support. And with the hill behind I think this could be some exciting times for the squadron if results on the field go our way.

    This season will be just buying a ticket in GA and sitting whereever the **** I like

    Last season I never sat in my allotted seat once
    neither did I and we were randomly put next to each other bahahaha

    Can anyone remember how many months the payment plan was for last season?

    Am trying to work out what cost was last year compared to upcoming year.

    Understood the need for season tickets to go up and was happy for this. However have taken a double hit with our silver seats now being considered as gold.

    Don't know if this has been mentioned but I noticed on the Membership info sent out in the mail that prices will increase after 31st July.
    Can't really see the logic behind this, other than to send the message to people to hurry and sign up before August. The loyal die-hard supporters will have signed up by then but I can understand many others putting off signing up, to wait and see if the club is going to make a statement by bringing in 1 or 2 name players before the season starts. If they here prices will go up in August, they might just say "well bugger it then".
    Not the greatest of PR strategies.

    A lot of clubs all over the world have early bird prices for ST even for match day tix when I lived in the UK and went to Championship matches. They might go up about $10 or so, cannot imagine it would be a significant increase.

    Has anyone heard anything about the seating allocation for renewing members with Bay 60 no longer being available because of Squadron move? I was sure it said in the membership brochure they were gonna contact Squadron ticket holders before the memberships were set to renew. Or will I just get allocated a random seat in the new Squadron area if I renew?

    All those existing bay 60 members have automatically been transferred to the new seating area on the Hill. As far as what seat you are allocated, this will be finalised in coming weeks. Although to be honest, no one sits in their allocated seats anyway so does it really matter?

    Not bad. Really need a good performance though in the FFA Cup against Victory to give supporters a bit of confidence and to kick the membership drive into gear.
