SeatView UKBlock W102 at Old Trafford — view and verdict
The Stretford End experience. Low behind the goal United traditionally attack after half-time. Expect to stand for much of the match and to hear everything. The view of the far end is distant, but that is not why people sit here.
★★★★☆ — Excellent · ranked #4 of 10 blocks we rate at Old Trafford
The view from Block W102, in words
Angle. You sit behind the goal at the far end and look straight down the length of the pitch: play develops towards you in one half and away from you in the other.
Distance and height. You sit about 56 metres from the centre spot and roughly 9 metres up. That is a low seat: close to the action at your end and fully in the atmosphere, with a flatter angle for judging distance at the far end.
Tier. Stretford End — Tier 1 (lower). Low behind the goal United traditionally attack after half-time. Expect to stand for much of the match and to hear everything. The view of the far end is distant, but that is not why people sit here.
Who Block W102 suits
Atmosphere and second-half attacks. If that sounds like you — and the price is in line with its 4.2/5 rating rather than a premium block's — this is a sound buy.
Who should look elsewhere
Very few people: this is one of the ground's best blocks. Only skip it if the price is inflated well beyond neighbouring blocks with similar ratings.
