DAFC Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Have you sat/stood in all parts of your ground? Was thinking this the other day, I think over the years I have done. Even been in the away end when we played Newcastle. I wish my season ticket was valid for all areas, quite like the main stand. Thinking of moving there next year.

Ira Gaines Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Aye. Was in the Wee Dublin End after we got promoted from the second division. The one area I've not had many chances to go into. Think it's the only chance I've had to be in there really as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Only time I've got sunburn from East End was sitting in the 'away' end during reconstruction. I think we played Aberdeen and the new Norrie stand wasn't ready. Started in the main stand as a kid, then as a teen I'd stand near the cage, then had season tickets for NW and Norrie. I'm a sweetie rustling Main-Stander these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrshireTon Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 As a kid in the 70s/80s I was in all parts of the ground. The lack of segregation meant standing behind whichever goal we were attacking or going into the cowshed when it was pouring. Sat in the stand for matches mainly against the OF and Hearts. In the 90s I tended to stand behind Sinclair Street. For one friendly against Rangers the club swapped the home and away ends, so I had a rare chance of a seat in the WDE. Following this the club asked the fans to vote which end should be the home end, and 2/3 wanted the Sinclair Street end. During the Save the Ton era, a large home turnout was expected for a charity buckets day, so we swapped for this one were drenched on the WDE as Ayr beat us 6-0. In recent years the WDE has been used by home fans only for overspill, against Peterhead for the 3rd division title decider, and a top of the table clash against Gretna in the 2nd, I now stand in the shed, between the front barrier and the seats. Anywhere else seems wrong, especially the stand if I'm in hospitality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrTroopMajor Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Over my time watching Ayr I have been showered by rust from all 3 roofs at Somerset at one point or another. So aye, I get around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Been to all sides of our stadium, including the ground tier in the main stand, either side of the main stand, either side of the north stand and hospitality. Used to sit in the Norrie constantly up until 3 years ago where I've had a season ticket for the North West. Our main stand is the only part of the stadium that looks old school and class. Shit to sit in imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poet of the Macabre Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Been in every stand. Had ST's in Norrie and North West, sat in Main Stand for minor cup ties and friendlies, away end for a random game when we beat Clydebank 6-0(?) Even sat in the lower portion of the Main Stand when we beat Dundee United on a Sunday night and there was a big crowd in. Pretty sure we got relegated and it was one of our only wins of the season. I like EEP. It's about 4000 seats too big though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parscelona Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Sat in the NW a few times, yet i prefer to sit behind the goals. Had a season ticket in the Norrie for years. Don't like the Main Stand though. Whenever we have a game and that is the only stand open, i give it a miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob1885 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Sat in the main stand many a times - Old man used to prefer it when he took me. Try and avoid it if I can these days. (Prawn Sandwich brigade, shite view, etc). Sat in the Norrie for many a year, some great memories sat there. Not a fan of sitting behind the goals though. Current seat of choice is the North West. Season ticket holder prebiouslyy, great for craig and atmosphere although there hasnt been much of that this season tbh. Sat in the away end for a Scotland Under 21 game going on 15 years ago. Was strange. Was in the North East, which is rarely open at East End even less so for home fans, for the 2011 title decider against Raith. So aye, I've sat everywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Mojo Risin' Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I've never watched a game from the away enclosure. I have watched games from the Main Stand, Family Stand, Home Enclosure, Somerset Road End, North Terrace, Railway End and Hospitality Suite.

itzdrk Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 The away enclosure is the only place I've no been either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larbert_Par Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Yup, every part of EEP. Sat in the away end while the Norrie was being built (first few home games of 1998/99) and, as I stood at the cage, sat in the North West when it became seated. Have been in the Main Stand countless times but have had my ST for the Norrie since it opened and happy with it. Good view. The atmosphere used to be good in there in the early all seated days, but like with most all-seated grounds, it's rather flat these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parsforlife Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Also seen games from all areas of EEP, apart from the hospitality boxes. That will need to wait for me a cold day when I'm loaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogs_Dollox Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I'm so glad at station park we have the freedom to stand wherever we want ( Unless there's segregation) so yes I have stood / sat in every part of my teams ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoss Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Every bit of Stark's, yes, including the bits now shut. Think I'm right in saying I've been in, if not every section, then at least all four sides of East End, one way and another. And Dens and McDiarmid.

No.6 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I once sat in the East Stand at Forthbank for a junior international. The sun was low and I couldn't see a bloody thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
