Safe standing at NYS

I should say 75% of fans in North stand are over 60, knackered knees & hips, so can't stand 😆

Of the 25%, how many stand because they'd never get up again if they sat....?

Not here skeggy

Crash, wonder where you'd been of late. Enjoy pal, whatever the weather.

You're right about the back two rows in the North Stand. They've stood at about every home game since the stadium opened.

Does this mean Increased capacity then with minimal outlay

.....ELK I'm not yet knackered by any means but those steps do look steeper every time I attend the stadium.

I'm ok, on row E so only a few steps.
Worst for me after a promotion with Steve Evans, was the first game away against Derby County,
I was on the back row with the Gods, I was knackered with the steps.

Worst ever ground for me was Sunderland. Thought we’d never stop climbing steps. Don’t know how many we climbed but plenty of fans were stopping halfway it was that knackering!

Flour, you just still get a seat number and stand in front of the seat. Capacity stays the same.

Surely there's still some sane people out there who want to sit in the seat they paid for? not be forced to stand to see the game.

I assume this is due to away fans throwing themselves down rows performatively celebrating goals and NY stadium being particucularly steep.
