Sumo Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 think there may be 14,000 terraced places at Munich's ground - anyone any idea if we'll get any of these or even if they are allowed to use them in Europe ? http://www.allianz-arena.de/en/service/sitzplaene/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no balls Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 They're not allowed to use them in European games. Surely they are, as they do in Italy don't they? Someone needs to look into this. Unfortunately I don't have that much time on my hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seats are put in as ordered by UEFA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trotter58 Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 (edited) run that by me again??????? The seats flip-up to allow terraces to be used for standing at Bundesliga games. Ingenious really. Apologies for the terrible photo but this should give you some idea (old-style terrace on the left, Bundesliga terrace on the right) Edited October 10, 2007 by trotter58 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gumbo Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Lets be honest, seats or no seats, they are not going to used, perhaps only to be stood on! and on trips like this if that offends anyone tough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I don't have that much time on my hands. The UEFA regulations stipulate that games may only be played in front of seated spectators. Any standing areas must be closed. It's here, though it's not very exciting - http://www.uefa.com/newsfiles/19070.pdf Italian grounds with standing areas are few and far between, no matter how it might sometimes appear.

Buford T Justice Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 how many times have i read on here 'tickets are only a fiver in germany' so, are we saying thats bullshit or are we just a big draw Mr Casino, how are you? Bayern's Bundesliga pricelist attached: http://www.fcbayern.t-com.de/media/native/...e09b1a04b1641c0 For most home games you can stand for 12 euros (?8.), which rises to a massive (!) 15 euros (?10) for the few top category games. A fair chunk of the seats are then either 20 or 30 euros (?14/?21) again for the vast majority of home games. When I went to Dortmund in February my ticket was 11 euros. That price applied to each of the 25,000 standing places. So, no, it ain't bullshit. It is probably more because they have to convert to all-seater and they see a European fixture as a higher category. Maybe. And, of course, we ARE a big draw.

Apologies for the terrible photo but this should give you some idea (old-style terrace on the left, Bundesliga terrace on the right) The picture on the left is Borussia Dortmund. The terraces do still look like that in the main, so I have no idea how they convert them to seats, but they do. It's only at the very back of the Sudtribune (25,000 standing places) that the seats flip back into the crush barriers like in the second picture. I'd say 80% of the terracing at Dortmund was 'traditional' on a Bundesliga match day and I think it's this way at most of the other German grounds too.

lancaster _white Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Looks like we are up in the gods at the Allianz Arena, a la St James Park. Can't be as bad as Marseille though. One fella got to a seat at the back of the corner in the Stade Velodrome, turned round and said "can you see alright Grandad?" To which Grandad replied, "see alright? I can fookin see Westhoughton from here". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
