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