East and West Lower - Category A South Lower, East and West Upper (front ~25 rows) - Category B South Upper (all rows), East and West Upper (back rows), 114 - Category C Not sure about the North stand - there won't be season tickets there anyway. In terms of value / view, the front few rows of the top deck, East and West, are the best bet. However, there aren't many season tickets available in those sections.

Last time I went to buy a ST I wanted front row of the upper tier. Was told on the phone that none were available. I ended up buying those seats for every game of the campaign so far through sponsors presales. 

when do they go on sale in general, gona finally invest in a season ticket 

What games does this include?

Serbia, Moldova, 3 friendlies and a potential play off?

SCs don't get better rates; at least the individual members don't, although the club may have incentive deals with the FAI if they sell a certain number of tickets. I imagine any incentives go back to subsidising club activities, though, like buses to games and that sort of thing. SCs come in for a bit of criticism on here but one small example aside, there's nothing to suggest that they don't do the best they can for their members and use their resources appropriately.

In terms of aways, it gives you some priority on tickets. However, for Austria last year, you basically had to be a season ticket holder and have had a history of going to away games before you got a ticket at all. Apparently there were season ticket holders turned down for that game, because they had no away history. That's very much the exception, of course, but I imagine the same thing will apply for the Wales game, especially assuming something is riding on it (which very well may be the case). Simply being a season ticket holder is going to do you no favours for that one.

Yeah, apparently a very small number of new season ticket holders (as in, who had just bought in summer 2016) with no away history were turned down for Austria tickets.

The fact you had a ticket for multiple years obviously meant you got tickets.

I've done the ST thing since the scheme began. It was a no-brainer for me to renew each time. You retain the same seat with your mates (upper East towards the front), you never have to worry about picking up a ticket for any home match, and I like going to all the games regardless of status anyway. It works out at good value when you average it out.

It has been the last few years.

To be fair, it's a decent deal, and it increases the attendance of the cup final, if nothing else, among plenty who might not go otherwise, plus with all season ticket holders getting up to premium level, they sell a few more pints, and have the stadium look fuller on tv (especially because they tend to keep the top deck empty).

I'll be renewing. Currently in 112. Will probably stay there. Would like a bit of effort made to extend the singing section to the whole lower tier. Get a good few people sitting down in 112
