The bloke behind me in the DRS is a miserable cunt and keeps asking me to sit down, ruining my experience every week.

I regularly get my view blocked by folk standing in the DRS and they often take offence at being asked to sit down.

Folk go to the DRS because they want to sit. If you want to stand, go to the Town End.

I suppose standing at the back row or two of the DRS should be tolerated (not allowed until Safe Standing is installed). Also, if you are at a seat and someone behind you asks you to sit down so they can see, do so- don't be a cunt about it. A lot of folk sit because they have to.

Completely agree with the above. Why go in that stand if you want to stand up. Doesn't make sense to me.

This is the take you'd expect from anyone being reasonable.

Going forward if we're remodeling that the stand with exec boxes, etc. I'd like to see safe standing/rail seats considered even if only a very small amount in the bottom tier on the wide blocks. It would easily resolve all this.

steep gradient. what a load of fucking bollocks. stand has been there since the mid90s and people have stood there since inception- where have the safety concerns been in the last 1/4 century+? 

same cunts crying over standing in a seated area are the ones who probably wank themselves silly harping on about stands like the Kop / Stretford End... which are also all seater.  the Town End is also legally a seating area btw.

reduced capacity wont be an issue- the way its going we'll have more empty seats than occupied ones very soon.

If your post is serious and you’re not trying to ‘whoosh’ folks who are not up to speed with modern ‘cyber piss taking’ then I’d could equally be said you’re and inconsiderate cunt.

Hopefully the club will realise there is an appetite for standing and incorporate safe standing into any new / rebuilt stands. A bigger Town End with safe standing would be a good idea IMO.

I'm not really sure why people are getting so aggravated about this, though. It's pretty clear they've been instructed to get people to sit the fuck down and if people aren't gonna comply what else can they do? I imagine most of those threatened with bans will probably shit themselves anyway and move to the Town End or do as they're told. Having said that I hope the bans aren't too lengthy.

I do wonder if feeling towards the club coincides with current form.

Like others have mentioned... I don't see what else the club can do. I honestly doubt the club would care that much, but when you're faced with sanctions, you have to show as a club that you are trying to take measures to get people to sit.

I'd love to be able to drink alcohol in my seat, but rules permit that I cannot. Can't see why this is causing such a stir

Because some folk truly detest being told what to do.
