Did you know that any seat at Craven Cottage where the goal mouth is obscured by a fixed structure is classified as a 'restricted view' seat?
Did you also know that, like many other stadiums in the world, the Cottage has lots of roof-supporting poles, and therefore lots of 'restricted view' seats - more than 1500 in fact!
What you probably didn't know is that the view from the vast majority of these seats is excellent. As you can see from the pictures below or from our restricted view seat interactive page| , only a very small part of the pitch is obscured, and in many cases the view from some of the restricted view seats could be considered superior to 'full view' seats in the corners of the ground.
Due to their classification these are the last seats in the ground to sell, and in fact, we normally have a few restricted view seats available to buy on the day of the game, even for the biggest games of the season!
NOT ONLY DO YOU GET A GREAT VIEW FROM THESE SEATS, BUT THEY'RE ALSO CHEAPER THAN FULL VIEW SEATS SO THE COST OF YOUR FIRST PIE OR BEER IS ALMOST COVERED!
So don't be put off if you see the "SOLD OUT - EXCEPT FOR RESTRICTED VIEW SEATS" sign put up. This means you still have the opportunity to buy some great seats and be part of the incredible atmosphere that only a packed Craven Cottage can give.
Don't let the 2% stop you from seeing the other 98%!
