Installing it is not the same as being able to use it. It may well be a good move if legislation changes, especially as it has been incorporated into a new stadium. On the other hand, as we can't afford the proverbial pot to micturate in, it would be flagrant extravagance to spend money on something that, as it stands, wouldn't give us an additional red cent in income.


Exactly, Tottenham have future proofed their new stadium. I thought the standing could be used in European comps.
Anyway, standing or sitting, you can only have the same amount of people in, so really only do it if you can afford it, or if you are replacing seats anyway.

I would merrily accept mandatory ID cards if it meant I could drink in sight of the pitch and, of lesser importance, stand if I fancied it.

Drinking in sight of the pitch improves watching rugby by a good 25%.

 


If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.

You don't need permission to do what Wolves are doing. It is safe standing by proxy and a great move.

Similarly it is perfectly legal to allow your fans to stand at matches, as Palace do. Different rules at different grounds, presumably in consultation with local authorities.

Utter tripe, Palace have been warned numerous times about the fans persistent standing, even threatening to close that part of the ground.
Problem with enforcing the rule is it only takes a few to stand up at the front and everyone else can argue they have to because they cannot see (which is why I just dont think this singing section has been properly thought out). Just because people do it does not mean its 'perfectly legal' That couldn't be further from the truth!

The new Spurs stadium has it!

Not allowed to use it though are they?
And by the way Spurs are a bad example to use, their safety certificate is only temperary. If they haven't completed tasks set them by Health and safety by June they will NOT have a permanent safety certificate enabling them to use the stadium at the start of next season.

It’s nowhere near the old ground so no they don’t still have the guy with the coracle.

So, even Shrewsbury got a new ground and we got a lease on some 5 a side pitches and some new gates.
You will be telling me next that you can get a beer at the Meadow.

It's called a brown envelope. Levy knows all about it.

Health and safety are government run, audited regularly and their employees of power/influence are watched carefully. Its a massive risk to take a bung on something like that. We're talking jail time if caught so I would not only doubt you quip, I'd dismiss it altogether.
If what you say has any weight at all how come Spurs were only issued a VERY temperary certificate with a long long list of jobs to be rectified, resolved and inspected by June in order to get permanent one? If your little brown envelope theory was even close to the truth Spurs would already have their full certificate now wouldn't they.

This post seems reasonably informed and believable in terms of the current legality of standing in seated areas at football matches.

It's just the way I presume football clubs get things done. I hardly think it's unheard of for 'payments' to be made in football for things like 'consultancy fees'. I'm glad government Health and Safety representatives sound unlikely to get involved in such things. Let's tell the truth here: I would laugh my tits off if Spurs couldn't use their new ground. So would plenty of others, I presume.

Me too, it would be the funniest turn of events at the club yet!
