Match: spurs

when we got to the ground we were escorted to the entrance by police and the stewards, and then to our seats by stewards, they then informed us that we will be getting free hot drinks for both the disabled and carer, and it was very welcomed on a very cold night, i would like other clubs to take notice of this, overall liverpool were very professional in their attitude to away disabled supporters, i was very impressed

Match: Liverpool v Hull

I found the parking quite easy, I asked a policeman where the best place was to park for disabled people, he let me through a road which was supposed to be closed off and advised me to park down Rockville Street or Avenue as long as I parked in a bay as it was normal restrictions. This was only about 5 minutes from the entrance. The stewards were very helpful and polite. The disabled toilets were also near by.

The view was pitch level and I was sat behind a steward for the entire match so I had to keep leaning left or right depending on where the ball was, he did try to sit as low as possible as he knew he was blocking my view but he still blocked a big part of the pitch. You are also sat in with the home fans.

Getting There
Easy for me. One hour

Parking
Similar to Everton. Old ground, set in back streets. All parking is very difficult, but don’t be tempted to park in a residents bay. You will get a ticket. Double yellows or park some way away and push up the hill.

Entrance
It’s tough to find without help, but head for the ground and ask a steward, they are pretty helpful in my experience.

The Viewing Position
It’s another painted box on the floor with your helper sitting behind. Problematically though, when you leave enough space for your helper to sit behind you, there is hardly any room in front of you for people to pass by. Unfortunately people (Police, programme sellers, St John’s ambulance, Stewards, Uncle Tom Cobley etc) are constantly passing by and getting out to use the toilet is impossible at times. It doesn’t help that you are on a slope and feel as though you are falling down a hill!

If it rains you get wet. Very wet, as the edge of the stand roof is immediately over your head and it leaks. Badly!

Once the game starts the view is decent, but you are sitting with the Liverpool supporters and they don’t like it if your team scores and you celebrate in front of them. I’ve been threatened and spat on over the years I’m sorry to have to report.

Price,Toilets & Catering
There were two modern, clean disabled toilets at the end of the stand which you pass on your way in.

Catering was possible to access for me, but getting through at half time is very, very difficult.

It is a “2 for 1” reduced cost ticket. The stewards were helpful and friendly and the view of the game was quite good.
