Well that's good of you but most people aren't like that. Also I've rarely sat anywhere where there's more than a few people standing, maybe it's different where you sit. </BLOCKQUOTE>

Generally were I stand everyone else does. Don't know anyone that sits at aways either

Why do people want to stand? Its sh!t, I pay a lot of money to see football and its not so much to ask to have a seat ffs. What do you do at halftime when you want to sit down with your bovril and read your programme? Its no the 70's

leave it as seating. if i want to stand, i can stand. if i want to sit on the seat ive paid £350 for, ill sit. plus its easier to bury your head in your hands while sat down anyway

That's your choice. I prefer to stand. I pay £650 for my season ticket & I think I should be given the choice. As it is I stand for the majority of games anyway & so it's not much of a problem.

I enjoyed pre-season so much because I got to stand at the games. Even stood for about 50 minutes at the Charity Shield.

European aways are awesome too as you get to stand there. Standing in the third tier of the San Siro is something everybody should get to experience :thup:

well i like to sit, if anything i think they should make the seats bigger ffs for 700 pound, with a drinks holder. standing is archaic.
