How Easy Was It To Find?
Got of at Arsenal Station then its basicly right infront of you.

9/10

Car Parking. Was It near? Was It Free?
don't know didnt go by car but doubt you would get a car down there its packed.

/10

Comfort (seating, leg room, does it have a roof etc)?
Seats where ok, view wasnt the best as we right in the corner. thumbdown.gif
3/10

Catering (Quality, price, queues)
Didnt buy food there but the queues looked massive as it was such a small area.
2/10

Pubs, Things To Do Nearby. Is There Much To Do For The Early Arriver At The Site Of The Ground? The pubs are all packed with gooners so we just went straight into the stadium.

6/10

Would you go again to this stadium? No its crap to be honest, it was like bein at a match in the 1960's the stadium is so out of date.

2/10

Overall. Out Of 10, What Do You Feel The Ground Deserves?

5/10

You guys have summed it up pretty well, just like to add that there fans are the most welcoming of all the away grounds I have been to, unlike at White Hart Lane where I think it is most unpleasant.

$hit. Had some moaning twats behind us telling us to sit down every two minutes, which I did, and could hardly see what was going on at the other end since I was about 10 rows back.

4/10

Catering (Quality, price, queues)
Got a hot dog in there, was fookin' lovely. If a bit expensive.

Club & Ground Name: The Highbury Libary Arsenal
What the match been played: Arsenal VS Sunderland
Date of the Match: November 05

How Easy Was It To Find? i was with my mate who has already been there i would have been clueless without him

3/10

Car Parking. Was It near? Was It Free?

4/10 we parked outside the new stadium

Comfort (seating, leg room, does it have a roof etc)? the legroom is awful and when people stand up in front of you, you can't see

1/10

Catering (Quality, price, queues) a bit expensive

3/10

Pubs, Things To Do Nearby. Is There Much To Do For The Early Arriver At The Site Of The Ground? a lot of away fans pubs

9/10

Atmosphere From Home Fans, How Condusive Was The Away End To Creating A Good Atmosphere The name the Highbury Libary doesn't get that name for no reason and as usual the sunderland fans make the atmosphere

0/10 for the arsenal crowd

Would you go again to this stadium? That's not going to possible
0/10

Would you call the Natural History Museum a waste of time because "the furniture's quite old"

You may pay a lot for premiership games, and where Highbury didn't offer comfort it offered surroundings no ground can rival anywhere in England.
