No of course they aren't under an obligation, but yes good practice as you say. When a large proportion of their customers want something, sometimes it's a good idea to do it. The benefits far outweigh any cons. It's safe, flexible, creates a better atmosphere, offers choice.
The main thing is...
Feet stamping? Xbox? Er....ok
Pathetic post to be honest, you've lost your side if the debate. Now just posting nonsense to deflect that fact that you don't really have an argument. Your constant support of an unsafe draconian situation, that exists at every all seater and creates conflict...
Sorry but some of your arguments are now getting childish. It's the right to have a choice. You like to sit down obviously, you have 100% of the stadium with which to sit it. Yet I can't stand anywhere.
I can choose if I want to stand at rugby, a concert, a bus, a train, most sports, hell, if no...
Thing is, I think it's gone past the petition now. I remember there were quite a few that started last year. This one didn't take off. We've now got EDM's in the commons, a massive safe standing roadshow and supporters groups, alot of clubs have thrown their weight behind it.
It is popular, I...
Ohh, massive! Don't be daft, how about the labour charges to move 1000 seats for the Arsenal game. The seats we have have a re sell value and also some can be kept as replacements for old seats over time.
Your arguments are just now about how much it would cost for changing seats to rail seats...
Actually no, that isn't the case in Germany. It's on average 20-25euro to stand. Germany just never had the incredible price rises that we have had. Safe standing in Germany is not what makes going to games cheaper. The whole model of the league and wages and tv rights and ownership of the clubs...

What are some of you on about? Expensive to install? Moving the offices at the back? Against the law?
Sorry but this really shows the lack of understanding there is about safe standing.
The system is not expensive, it does not require any alterations to existing terrace unless the current...
It isn't complete bollocks, I'm in the EU with a wall behind me and stood for 2 consecutive corners, steward asks me to sit down. Then second half I stand for a bit after second half restarted and waited for my mate to come back and got warned that I was on my last warning and would be ejected...
Costs would be fairly minimal. The safe standing can be bolted in instead of seats. Its not hard, it could be done in a few days i would have thought.
Even though PB said its not on the agenda, BHAFC seemingly voted for the trials. So they are not totally against it. As soon as the trials...
If the North Stand and NW & NE corner were safe standing, it would just be so EFFING cool! It would look fantastic, the noise would be fantastic, it would always be full.
Can some really clever person do a photo shop of what it would look like? I mean not old style terraces but safe standing...
