Ah, sorry, looks like flickr was doing something stupid. I've fixed it now. Is 4MB or so - too large to attach directly.
Try this link http://www.flickr.com/photos/joshoconnorchen/4640529692/sizes/o/ There are more empty seats than I imagined. Are they reserved for VIP??
The lowest ones are reserved for players, coaches, managers, etc.. The ones immediately across are the platinum seats - exactly the same view as the gold seats I was in (750 ringgit for the week), but 3000 ringgit instead.
And the platinum seats were much further away than the gold ones. I wonder if anybody bought it. Gold was the right choice!
We went up to the upper levels for the Malaysia v Denmark game - was quite a lot of fun being in the crowd and screaming our heads off. Couldn't see as well, however...
From that picture ..from where i was sitting (on the upper tier, opposite side of Gold seatings), the friday night (MAS vs. CHN) match was basically a full house..the only sections that were "empty" was the Gold and the VIP/player area seatings; even then, they were at least 50% filled..the silver/lower tier seatings were pretty much packed.. The only other night the stadium was nearly filled, but not as many as on Friday, was the TC Final Day (Sunday).. The only day i noticed a lot of empty seats was on Saturday, UC Final (only abt 25-30% filled)..
