Safe Standing

Always the same people whinging about everything mind - on every topic

If it’s not parents whinging about “what about thaa bairnnns” it’s “I’m a pensioner”

Neither of these were a thing when I was a lad. Get on with it.

That’s a bit harsh mind. The article says that that they have been season ticket holders for 40 years, and they have become friends with most people around them, so it’s understandable to hat they don’t want to leave their seat. They said the people in their area don’t actually stand.

I think the club should be commended for listening to them. There have been way to many instances recently where fans have been ignored and treated like an inconvenience, and if the club had booted them out there would be many more supporters annoyed at that, than there are disappointed that there aren’t as many safe standing spaces.

Well done to the club imho

Be interesting to see if they go to away games though. It’s pretty much all standing at away matches. It’s also bullshit when he says we can’t stand for two hours. The most you have to stand is 45 minutes (plus added time) as you sit down at half time and before the game.

Leeds fans must be laughing at us - most of them stand all game irrespective of age.

At his age he probably needs to go to the bogs at half time
 
Aren’t the seats / standing designed so that no matter if bloke infront of you is standing and you’re sitting you can still see ?
 
The club shouldn't be installing safe standing in new areas unless SC holders are offered relocation to seated areas.

What is the law on safe standing, is it still a trial or can clubs convert all their grounds.
