Fair comment that Wallsendmag.

You're right. Ever been to an away game? Hope you sat down and reported all those rascals around you for standing. After all it's proven just how unsafe it is to stand on your own 2 feet. Look,I don't disagree with you,I believe there should be standing areas in grounds. I stood watching football for 20 years and I far preferred it to sitting. The fact is,since 1989 and Hillsboro, Lord Justice Taylor outlawed standing areas,and now they don't exist at top flight grounds. I think the last time I stood at a game legally would have been at Selhurst Park in 1994ish? for Ruel Fox's debut vs. Wimbledon. When something exciting happens,ie,we are in a very promising attacking position,you naturally stand ,but only until the move ends,not for the whole match...it isn't fair for your fellow fans who don't want to/cannot stand for long periods. You're right, I'm not trying to argue with anyone here. There's not a single point there I don't agree with. Of course it isn't fair to stand infront of those wanting to sit, but surely if you look at the bigger picture - the fact those who want to stand have now had to move several times, then the outcry over fans having to move a few rows down or to any other section of the ground isn't that bad, in my honest opinion. People aren't standing to be cunts and spoil peoples match day experience, they just want to re-produce the atmosphere Newcastle is apparently famous for. People can claim it can be just as good sitting all they want - all I know is the atmosphere can be pretty fucking terrible at SJP, yet look at games like the Sunderland 5-1 and the whole ground was on it's feet for the majority of the game, and as you can guess, the place was bouncing. I'm pretty sure the FA wouldn't sanction such an area though,which makes the whole point moot. Even though there should certainly be discussions on the subject. Ashley might surprisingly be for it, seeing as he could point to the cost of ripping seats from a stand to accommodate such an area, was from the transfer "warchest".

He's been a permanent sub for the past 3 seasons. No way this is true, like.

It might not be a crime but when you buy the ticket you agree to the terms and conditions of it. Sitting for most of the game is one of them. They're well within their legal rights to cancel season tickets if you're* standing rather than sitting for the majority of the game. *not you personally obviously. Of course they can.

But the recommendations made by the Taylor report say you can't stand. So no,you shouldn't be standing .
-
If he was French, Gary Glitter.
-
But the fact that no clubs are allowed to provide standing areas ,doesn't make your argument very feasible tbh.
-
But isn't it that way at every Premiership ground in the country ? Thus making it a kind of law?
-
Isn't standing illegal that's why we have all seater stadia?
-
He made out he'd been smacked with a baseball bat though not slapped .
-
We are deluding ourselves if we think he'll be offered a contract worthy of him.
-
Mind,"there's only one Mike Ashley" probably wasn't the best choice of song.
-
Joey's reaction to the slap was the distasteful part of it from my point of view.
-
I thought Shola put in a decent shift with little to no support. We all know his limitations but you can't fault his effort today.
-
Im not convinced we'll see the best of Cabaye with Barton in the same team.
-
Disco having to get an extra t and n on his shirt if Nicklas signs
-
I thought Tiote wasn't anywhere near his best . Cabaye obviously will be good when he gets the pace of the English game. Therefore it was no surprise Arsenal dominated the middle of the park.
-
Colo has been outstanding. Easily man of the match.
-
Was it fuck a penalty.
-
Barton has been a disgrace there tbh.
-
Ricky Gervais looks a good buy.
-
He should be missing now also.
