The Hawthorns Ground Guide: 10 Things You Need To Know

3. Pay Attention To Your Seat Number

The one repeated annoyance (aside from the number one thing to know on this list, in fact) is that the seat markings are a little confusing. The ticket you have will be marked with the letter of the row, but the plates on the end of rows in the stands have numbers attached as well (A1, M1, etc...) These are in fact the same rows, but after several refreshing drinks and a long trip to the Midlands, it's hard to reason with your brain. Inevitably you will see fans who've not visited before getting confused, so give them a gentle steer in the right direction.
