Advice required please - son’s first game 07:44 - Jul 16 with 1199 views | EastLondonBlue | Hi all, Long time reader, only posted a few times. Want to take my son to his first match in August at P.R and want to make it as good as possible for him. Anyone got any advice about best place to sit with a 5 year old?? I was thinking A.R upper but the club were saying the family areas in the Co-op stand would be good too. Any thoughts would be appreciated. | | | | |

Fair amount of stairs to get up there mind. Wherever you decide I hope it's an absolutely magical experience that he'll never forget! | |

Advice required please - son’s first game on 08:52 - Jul 16 with 1071 views | Meadowlark | I took my two young grandsons (7 & 5)to their first match last season. Upstairs in Churchmans (Is that now Sir Alf?) was great. Their faces were a picture as they walked out and saw the stadium for the first time. Excellent view of the match, not too crowded or noisy for them and very child friendly. They enjoyed it so much they asked to go again, so we did! | | | |
Advice required please - son’s first game on 08:54 - Jul 16 with 1070 views | Deano69 | Experience tells me that an aisle seat is preferable for those inevitable toilet visits. Fanzone is great to add to the build up and SAR as good an option as anywhere. it’s by the tunnel which means you will be able to see all that’s going on and closer views of the players. | |

Advice required please - son’s first game on 09:52 - Jul 16 with 1010 views | EastLondonBlue | Thanks all - great - was hopeful SAR would be a good area - want to see his face as we go up the stars into the seating area for him to see the whole stadium for the first time. Legends bar a definite too as will be a Portman pie, let’s hope he’s hungry! Cheers for the parking tip, hope there’s a shuttle from terminal 2 COYB | | | |
