Newcastle to trial safe standing 2023-24 season

So you "give up your season ticket, move and then find it's not for you. Then what ?

Wouldn't fancy return to standing myself.
Much prefer to sit nowadays (like Brin it's probably an age thing).

I stand every home game anyway, but I am second row down at back of north stand 😃👍

Or they make you move so they can instal the new barriers?

That would go down well

Also there’s a space issue. “ standing barriers” when compared to seats accommodate half of the fans for the same area taken up.

Ok for big grounds like Newcastle but a non starter for grounds like ours

....I thought the ticket you buy gives you a number where to stand, so the numbers wouldn't change. You're stood if front of the rail seat number. You can't stand where you want, unless of course it unreserved standing/seat.

No, the current designs allows for a bigger difference between rows of the standing rails resulting in two rows where there used to be three.
