    Like others on here, I said I’d support the introduction of a safe standing area, but it’s not something I’d choose to do myself. I wonder what those under 30 make of standing at games, given that the majority of league grounds have been all-seaters their entire lives.

    The only time I like to stand these days is at a gig - went to see ****age Fanclub in Manchester after the Crewe game and it just feels wrong sitting down at a rock concert.

    Can't really see the point if you are standing in front of a locked back seat and hemmed in by barriers?

    If people want safe standing let them have it, most prob at the front of the Kop. Won't it cut down further, our already cut down capacity though?

    It's a "yes" from me.

    I think there should be some standing in the ground for those who prefer it. It's good for both generating atmosphere and not feeling so cold.

    If it was in the Jimmy Sirrel stand it would increase home capacity and reduce the oppos.

    Good idea. A couple of blocks of the Jimmy given over to free standing. Having a lesser gradient as well, t'wud be ideal.

    Haven't we already got standing? Wrexham supporters were all standing from what I saw.
