Imagine climbing all that way to get to your position and not having a seat to rest for a little while.


I think there is still some kind of seat there if you do want to sit.

 

Not sure though, the article is a bit vague as to what Rail seating is.

It’s effectively exactly the same as normal seating except there’s a rail in front of you that you can lean on when standing up

In terms of away ends it would seem to make very little difference to me as everybody’s standing anyway. Maybe stops people ending up three rows in front celebrating a goal.

that’s exactly the reason why they’re doing the away section first. everyone stands, might as well make it safe.

I thought that they lock them up or down depending on if that competition allows for standing or not.

 

Alcohol in the stands next?

Pretty sure the ones at Spurs weren’t locked? Or at least if they were you could unlock them yourself as a few people were sitting down at half time

Isn't it pointless having a seat unless everyone sits down?  As soon as someone stands up, everyone will have to, or stare at someone's arse for a couple of hours

Sure some uefa competitions don't allow standing still. It's also for the safety point of view. 1 person to 1 spot

Eventually I think yeah, but currently it’s 1:1 eventually might be able to 2:1.

Cant see that like..unless I've missed something. I thought the 1:1 was the whole thing behind the safe standing?

1:1 then if successful and “safe” an increase can be looked at.

 

Ill see if I can find article.

The ideal end goal is to have two rows (or two steps) between each rail, isn't it? I think Everton have built it into their stadium plan. Jon Darch is the go-to on this:

I just bring few 330ml craft beer cans.  Looks like soft drink.

 

Never had an issue 

I’m not a drinker so it doesn’t bother me, I was just surmising if it’s the first step in a change in attitudes.
