Do you sit there? If not, why worry about it mate? I think everyone in that area stands as it is, therefore it will be welcome. It changes nothing, you can still sit in a safe standing section. Not that anyone will.
No i sit in the SE corner but forgive me for actually thinking about fellow fans and not just myself and what i want. Yeah you can sit but wont be able to see so will be forced to stand even if you dont want to
I don't understand your reply, my post was regarding the fact that I know of grandparents and children that are in the SWC, they prefer to be seated, with safe standing they won't be able to see if sat, is there anywhere for them to change their seats to as a group?
Don't you be coming here with your common sense solutions.
It's wild that this even needs be written. It's both the most common sense and blatantly obvious solution. How could they get this wrong?
You're getting angry over nothing mate. People already stand in that area, it makes total sense.
Agree, would take allot of organising but achievable, improving the atmosphere really needs groups standing together so if the club could facilitate those who would want to move to stand and those who would want to sit, you could have a class full standing end with people knowing that end will be boisterous, then if your easily offended or want a quieter experience there’s plenty other options
Makes more sense to me, in terms of line of sight, for it to be the upper section of the south stand and include the SWC and SEC upper sections rather than including any lower sections.
If we are serious about improving atmosphere it needs to be the full upper and lower sections of those stands imo , it’s still not a huge percentage of the ground in scheme of things
Nah that’s way too spread out and is part of the problem we have now seeing as the SWC has also already stood and been a noisy part of the ground for years and years. I’m in the left most block of the South Stand (block U39) which is in the middle of the SWC and the rest of the South Stand standing parts (blocks U38 and U37) and every single match at various points, the SWC will be singing a different song to blocks U38 and U37 to my right. Would only be worse if you spread it any more. It’s why away ends like Wolves are shite because it’s so spread out and the end is never singing the same song.
My main point was around folk being able to see all of the pitch rather than anything to do with atmosphere. I'm happy enough to sing/shout/roar while sitting or standing. For a good atmosphere we need the whole ground joining in anyway.
We're already standing the whole game at the back of U17 any way? Do you lot a bit further down stand the whole game too?
