In a safe standing area the seats will be locked so people like Rob and me will not be able to sit, So we will go in another stand that is all seating wont we Rob ?

Its the 'standers' who start off in the seats, rather than the standing (only) area, and who won't be able to keep their arses on the seats and resist standing when Town attack. Be great if the standing only area, if it existed,represented 50/75% of the ground's capacity but it wouldn't sadly.Twenty rows, hopefully at the back of the Pontoon, would be it I reckon

I don't have a problem with this at all but when the 'standers' decide to become 'sitters' and then, when we get the ball, want to become' standers' again it felicitations up the genuine 'sitters'. One or the other, stand all match or sit and everyone's happy in reality tho' even if there are standing areas (with seats locked in the up position) there will still be too many who start off sitting but keep leaping up every couple of minutes
Oh FFS. You haven't got enough to moan about so now you're making up your own scenarios to complain about. How do you think people got on before it became all seater?

I know it's football so usually there's not a lot of brain power used, by both the authorities and fans but, how many people when there at the cinema and have paid for a seat stand, nobody as it's just not done.
Don't know about you but I've never felt the urge to stand up during a film. nothing to do with social convention. Apart from the time I went to see Chicago and that was only to get up to walk out it was that bad. Not even the perving potential would entice me to stay.

or we could all just follow the rules and sit on the seats provided for 2 x 45 mins once a week. ...not a massive hardship.

Yeah, that’s working at the minute isn’t it? And what about when people celebrate - is it safe to have them jump around with a barrier at shin height in front of them?

When it's cold I'd rather be standing. Which is 90% of the season.

I’d love to see the new ground with the equivalent of the Ponny end with full safe standing, hopefully by then it’ll all be agreed. Would mean the ones who want to sing and shout and create the atmosphere will all be in one end and give a good atmosphere at one point rather than smatterings around the ground. If/when we get the new stadium I want to see a real push to get 2/3 times as many ST sold as usual and then, if he’s still here, give Jolley a really big budget to provide exciting and effective football to entice people back and get them into the habit of going every week, hopefully meaning our lowest gate would be around 5.5k to 6, if done properly.
