trial_master Posted December 31, 2009 Report Share Posted December 31, 2009 (edited) That will be good just there. I dont like sitting in the front blocks as you cannot see all of the sections. Sheffield is a very small arena so you should be ok. My girlfriend books us tickets every year, but she will not tell me where we are sitting until we get there!!!! Almost forgot. It is always empty up that end, so you will be able to move seats for a little more leg room as it is VERY cramped there!!!

The tickets were actually a gift from my brothers girlfriend, which we were very surprised by! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sawtooth Posted January 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2010 Because with the right lens you'll end up with professional looking pictures which you could sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spinningplates Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Traveling up from the isle of wight. Are the motorways clear. and off road in Sheffield. Please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tricky dicky Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 The roads are fine in Sheffield. I work just over the road from the arena and its all ok. Either get off the M1 at junction 33 or Junction 34. Watch the roadworks on the M1 from Junction 33, there is a 50mph average speed check. My Dad is down at the arena today building the sections. The car park has been covered in snow all week so I am guessing it will be getting cleared a bit today and tomorrow. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Doesn't look like I'll make it. Booked train, but east coast mainline has serious delays and signalling problems. I'd never make my connection then chaos ensues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
