Of all the things posted on here, this must be up there in the top 5 most stupidest posts ever.It will be pretty easy to manage really. They will use the CCTV to identify which seats aren’t being sat in and cancel the STs for those seats whilst offering a one time opportunity to transfer to the safe standing areas.
This is why there needs to be an explanation why they didn’t, or couldn‘t do anything other than what they have done. It may well be that Frasers wouldn’t allow it anywhere else. Given King’s willingness to accept when the club have got things wrong, do you think it has been done for no logical reason?The club asked where we wanted the safe standing, then ignored the wishes of the responders. The obvious answer is just to extend the safe standing further round.
It was tongue in cheek, Mr Piggy. Glad you bit though.Of all the things posted on here, this must be up there in the top 5 most stupidest posts ever.

Also, it was a consultation not a referendum.
Damned if they do and damned if they don’t. However, if there were likely to be restrictions on options for location that should have been made clear as part of the consultation process. In mitigation, the club doesn’t have a history of consulting with fans like this.So why even ask then?

That’s what I think. They should just tell those who are moaning.It’s possible that they want concerts to be all seated, so all safe standing is behind where the stage would be.
HE WAS JOKING!!!It was tongue in cheek, Mr Piggy. Glad you bit though.
I assume some of your posts occupy positions 1 to 4.
Who sits at concerts ?That’s what I think. They should just tell those who are moaning.
The same people who sit down at football matchesWho sits at concerts ?
Actually, the more I think about it, the more sensible an idea it was.HE WAS JOKING!!!
Whilst being at the age where I prefer sitting and having seen the aftermath of Hillsborough .I find it very strange Safety Authorities have allowed people standing in seated areas to continue without taking action(how they get round the Taylor report insurancewise I don't know).Sitting won’t be enforced. That safe standing zone doesn’t cover for half the amount that usually are stood, it’s that daft it’s almost pointless.
they've installed rail seating? You still have a seat the safe standing areaThat’s what I think. They should just tell those who are moaning.
What do you do ban 1000s of banned because they stand in seating areaWhilst being at the age where I prefer sitting and having seen the aftermath of Hillsborough .I find it very strange Safety Authorities have allowed people standing in seated areas to continue without taking action(how they get round the Taylor report insurancewise I don't know).
The club have put in safe standing.If fans want to. Move there.
Now might just be the time to enforce it.
What do you want 1000s of people to banned for standing in a seating area? I dislike having a seat and until now have not had the choice to stand for our games . It's only natural that at a lot of names people will stand in seating areas especially when there are exciting moments in games.Ive been to many games in the UK and around the world ,the vast majority of people still stand up in seated areas.Whilst being at the age where I prefer sitting and having seen the aftermath of Hillsborough .I find it very strange Safety Authorities have allowed people standing in seated areas to continue without taking action(how they get round the Taylor report insurancewise I don't know).

nah, Doug has employed a sniper to sit in the west stand and eliminate persistent standers
I’m only hypothesising, I have suggested @Sky Blue Pete asks for the rationale.they've installed rail seating? You still have a seat the safe standing area
also 15 where our seats are is also behind the goal line so would be behind any stage
Yes.What do you do ban 1000s of banned because they stand in seating area

i'm only pointing out the flaws in that ideaI’m only hypothesising, I have suggested @Sky Blue Pete asks for the rationale.
I don't know if you were old enough to remember Hillsborough or even 1971 Ibrox but before these no one would have thought such things could happen but they did.What do you do ban 1000s of banned because they stand in seating area

Hindsight is great but it doesn't bring back dead people.I do think so far luck has been on the fans side.
If people want to stand go to SAFE standing areas
Don't think so .You’ve gone insanely well out of proportion with that.
It will be pretty easy to manage really. They will use the CCTV to identify which seats aren’t being sat in and cancel the STs for those seats whilst offering a one time opportunity to transfer to the safe standing areas.
Seems empty looking at the blue dots. Can we see this filling up before the season starts, we’ve moved here as we had 3 more people who wanted to come so couldn’t sit in our usual seats in block 18! Hopefully not a decision we come to regret

Only a few hundred standing spots left. They will sell for every game. Block 10 hasn't sold well though.
Might get tickets to the Everton game in my season ticket seats, see what I’ve let myself in for view wise 🫣
They may not be standing for long.That won't be possible. There will be at the very least 1000 people standing next season in seated areas. There are a few hundred seats available in standing areas left.
A rough count suggests there's probably about 250 standing spots left. They've sold better than people think.
It’s possible. The club just need to tell us why the area was chosen,That's a myth. Most major grounds in England have safe standing now. These are the same stadiums that hosted Taylor Swift concerts this summer.
Well, they may well not be standing for long.

Despite what you say I wager it would be for staging a concert myself if they choose to have one that is?Chosen because they thought more people would migrate from 15 and 16 to the South Stand. Some, like me, did. Plenty didn't.
Don't think so .
If you said before those 2 events that 97 people in 1 penned area or 66 on 1 exit terrace would die.
I would have said "no way" but once you get bodies falling on people in front that is where problem multply.
Sorry to be so morbid but like I said safe not sorry.
Stand in safe areas sit in seated areas.
Presumably those that chose not to migrate have chosen to sit and will not complain when forced to do so.Chosen because they thought more people would migrate from 15 and 16 to the South Stand. Some, like me, did. Plenty didn't.
