The Telegraph are running a similar poll.. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/competitions/premier-league/10388034/Standing-sections-in-English-football-should-they-be-reintroduced-or-not.html#disqus_thread

One of the main leaders in the campaign is a City fan, so no surprise! Clearly a Club that listens to their fan base. Well done City! :clap2:

Where there's a will Bozza, where there's a will! The FSF have a demo for the MPs in parliament today and some of us are discussing this issue with the powers that be at the Albion tonight. If we can't get their backing for now I would still like the Club to say that they do not oppose other...

This is the thing, there really is a finance case for bringing in more revenue: "Where space and configurations allow more fans can be admitted to safe standing areas too. Exact numbers will vary from club to club because of different stadium dimensions but the Government’s Green Guide allows...

BTW, this is the frightenting, non-inclusive, violent spectre of which your club is so afraid: Picasa Web Albums - jon.darch - Kids and fami... BEWARE - shocking photos of Peterborough hooligans in 2012! Thank goodness this will be banned as of May next year (if Posh stay up)!

That's a poor response Beach Hut - at least back up your opinion with a fact. Why don't you want it?

When does Hebbard retire? :moo:

Agreed. Get the pilot kicked off at Villa/Posh/SPL/wherever. Once that is a roaring success the implementation of rail seats will become inevitable. This campaign has come a long way in a short period of time. Thanks to Bozza for making this a sticky - will keep everyone updated on here.

I agree, it was an overreaction, but that was the sentiment, yes.

The embarrassing thing is that we're in a 'club of one'. The only club in the land to opening oppose it.

Which might explain their complete overreaction at the Bristol City game to the people standing in the North.

Fair point.

Oh is it illegal? :facepalm:

So what we need is someone who's got a decent track record of protest ideas and has some half decent contacts with supporter groups. Someone who can organise a march, write a song that gets into the Top 20, a letter and postcard writing campaign. Hmmmmmm... any ideas?

Thanks for bouncing the thread chaps!

The day we lost our Brighton & Hove Albion So it's official, we're no longer a Club that listens to the fans. 90% of you want change?? Haha, forget it. Safe Standing at the AMEX: Yes or No? - Page 11

This Club was saved 15 years ago because of the power the fans have. If 90% of them want change, they will get it. Hope you're reading this Hebbard.

Which leaves Darth Vader and Sepp Blatter.. or our friends from the Police force...?

Thanks for the update John. Very eager to hear what Martin/Paul say. If they toe the 'we do what the FA tell us to do' line then the next questions should be 'can we please invite the roadshow to town to demonstrate to all Albion fans what this would look like in real life'. As I've said...

Attila - I think you've just summed up why you're an Albion legend.
