Great news. Those so desperate to stay in the corner will be considering a move behind the goal. A proper wall of noise besides the away fans. How it should be.

A standing section behind the goal, close to the away fans, and filled with our loudest supporters is basically the best outcome - hope it works out.

Will they be more vigorous with telling people to sit down outside this area ?

Block 16 top to bottom just stands

They will next year. The argument will be that there's plenty places to stand.

Power by numbers of course. Same with anything.

The issue is when you get situations seen at other clubs like Burnley, Tottenham and Forest where fans have fans have been warned of banning orders for persistent standing.

those clubs have backed off now

given most people have no intention of moving it becomes unworkable

Forest have banned fans this season for standing. They currently don't have safe standing.

If I was going to be revoking anyone’s season tickets (and to be clear I don’t think we need to do it for anyone), then it seems more fair to penalise fans who are standing in seated areas while other standing areas are available, rather than families who aren’t attending enough games for Doug’s liking.

No, of course not. Means nothing to those who actually have bans.

Plenty would know who the guy who works at Wembley is. His brother is a Cov fan who goes home and away.

Honestly, just move to a standing area if they're not putting safe standing where you are. All the atmosphere is going to be in the standing sections and you're not going to have to bother with little hitlers.

Meanwhile back in the real world.

It seems lots of 15 and 16 don't want to move as they likely lose the social groups they have formed over a decade or so which is likely., some people like their view, some people have lost people who they sat with and don't want to move and lose that persons seat, some like the much better facilities in the east stand.

It is strange they say in the article they have listened when people said they wanted it in "singers corner" but have only done it in half of the corner.

They've done exactly what people asked for so no doubt people will still moan.

Assume 10 is closed off because the safety group won't allow standing right next to the away fans but if we get a season with no trouble would assume it can be extended to that block as well.

Would not be surprised to see a clampdown on persistent standing elsewhere, in fact I wouldn't be shocked if the SAG have insisted on that as a condition of allowing safe standing.

Make new social groups, move together or be a social outcast. I don't give a shit but you know where to go and stand now.
