Have you been to football matches before? Sometimes fans have been known to misbehave. The club dealt with it and the last 4 years have been fine...

Well a quick google tells me that Celtic closed the area once in 2017 for 2 matches for "unsafe behaviour". This was regarding flares, etc. I can't see any reports of further problems.

You are obviously referring to the unsubstantiated claims made by Cheshire Police Chief Mark Roberts (an outspoken opponent of safe standing) on a Talk Sport show which have been discredited as he has not been able to supply any evidence for his claim. Note that he covers Cheshire, not Glasgow.

Yes absolutely; if you want to stand then you buy a ticket for a rail seat in that particular block. If you want to sit then you have the right not to have some numpty standing in front of you.

This is why the survey about safe standing came back with a negative result... old geezers on the top deck of the East Stand imagining that they would be made to stand...

Oh for goodness sake, to clear this up once and for all...THEY WOULD NOT MAKE THE WHOLE GROUND SAFE STANDING ONLY ONE OR TWO SECTIONS!

Yes you're right, agreed. At Celtic they have taken a big corner wedge for safe standing and it works great. Loud singing every match.

Which is the whole point of safe standing... those who want to stand can move their ticket to that zone and stand safely without annoying people behind, and hopefully generate more coordinated singing...

Of course 000's don't; they wouldn't make the whole flippin' ground safe-standing! Just specified zones where those who want to stand can re-locate to, e.g. a central chunk of the NS, and maybe a chunk of the SS.

Well of course, just don't buy a ticket for a safe standing zone. It's amazing how many people comment on this without looking into how it would be implemented.

Absolutely this. That survey of Barber's was a crock of s**t
