May I ask what you expect to see? Sidney Opera House, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, herds of Wildebeest sweeping majestically across the plain?

Anywhere entrance point just above or below perfect!

Back few rows even. I don’t think you’ll be talking about how bad the view was after the game

the real question should be "what is the view like from row xx" that the difference that really changes perspective.

Always back rows. If it rains you'll get wet at the front, and view is better from the back IMO.

As with Highfield Road, I've sat in virtually every area of the ground over the years. To state the obvious, near the front you can see the players up close, and from the back you can see the patterns of play / tactics better. Personally, as a rule of thumb I find anywhere in the few rows just above or below Z/AA to the best balance of player visibility and an overview of the action, but it sounds like you can't get those.

By my reckoning 14 rows from the front is P, and 16 rows from the back is FF. If you're leaning towards a closer view, I'd stick with P because lower down doesn't add much, and if you'd rather have more of an overview I'd go for FF because further back than that doesn't give you any advantage IMO and starts to feel a bit more distant.

As has been said, if it's raining the lower rows can get wet (depends on wind direction and strength). And I suspect that if it's sunny, you'll likely be facing into the sun for at least some of the game in that part of the ground. And if it's sunshine & showers, you can experience it all

The Arena isn't a giant megabowl, and I don't think there's a bad view from anywhere.
