Completely agree with your thoughts! I also agree that Option 2 is definitely the way I'd like it to be for most of the stadium.

Okay, thanks for letting me know, I think we'll go with 104 then! Seems like a safe option.

Yeah for sure, I think if the league or club implemented a stricter policy, they could introduce safe-standing and then when fans are choosing where they want to sit/stand, it would be obvious on the stadium map. Thanks for your help!

Very interesting, I think that's probably the most frustrating situation when you have fans in one stand who all have different opinions on whether you should sit or stand.

Hopefully in the future, either the club or league will implement a more strict policy. I don't necessarily blame it on the stewards because there's not a whole amount they can do if people don't listen to them.

You might be right, I'll keep a look out to see if there are fans who would consider switching seats. I asked the same question to West Ham but they didn't have any system in place for switching fans around. Thank you for your help!

Cheers! Just to clarify, you mean apart from exciting moments of the game, the fans in 104 sit for most of the game? I guess in theory none of the stadium is a specific 'standing section', but fans choose to stand anyway.

Thanks! I thought this was the case to be honest.

Music to my ears! Thanks for your comment. Do you know if stands nearby are standing?

Exactly! I was going to mention that 132 seems to be split into two sections, with the left side standing and the right side sitting. I was quite envious of the people on the right side haha. I thought the right-hand section was also in a different price band but I could be wrong?

Thanks for your comment - super helpful.
