All I want is either East or West lower at Old Trafford to be a "safe" standing area. A very small percentage of the stadium.

doesn't work because some people prefer sitting - and so cannot see anything when people in front f them then stand.
espewcially the nobs who seem to pay for a season ticket, roll up lind drunk and then stand for the entire match, not watching at all, just goading the opposition.

na - keep everyone in a section either seating or standing.

Right so you basically misunderstood my post there. Well done.

T2 is basically standing anyway. They would only ever do the E/W lower at OT as having a tier that high up as standing would be dangerous unless they put up fencing/perspex at the front.

Eh? There would still be family sections for the kiddies.

Bring back standing. The atmosphere is so much better.

A little at a time, BBB.

Why can't the light grey blocks be allowed to stand?
As long as the views of the people behind aren't blocked, what's the problem?

I don't see what the harm in trying it is. Better atmosphere and if it's limited and done properly then it shouldn't be a problem.

Might be a bit of a headache with the sectioning off at some stadiums but I reckon it could work.
