    In favour, sort of, I broke my ankle thirty years ago and cannot put too much weight on it still. I much prefer to sit in the kop where I imagine is where the standing area will be, I don't much fancy sitting in the Pavis so what do I do?

    If the kop could be divided so to allow standing at the front and sitting at the back then that's what I'd vote for.

    Yes. I always stood on County Road. It was never the same again when they forced us to sit down. If it was re-introduced at Notts I expect it would only be behind one of the goals though.
    The Kop shouldn't be a problem, "Safe standing" is having a rail directly in front of you as well as one directly behind you, so there's no chance of anybody tumbling down the terraces, however steep.

    Mate, what's the alternative site for UTM? The Carousel one needs 50p sticking in the meter again

    Me too. They would have to bring back the wooden floor for stomping your feet on and then ban everyone from Keyworth who just used to piss there.
