Board must be confident we will NOT go up at the end of the season then, as no football league team is allowed safe standing


IF YOU PLAY FOR THE BADGE ON THE FRONT OF YOUR SHIRT

Chairmen come and go, boards come and go, but the fans remain.
They are the one true constant

Standing is not for me as I prefer a better view of the game from high up in the side stands, but it's great credit to the club that they are trying provide it for those who prefer it.

Let's hope they can find the financial backers to sort this out because I don't imagine it will be particularly cheap to install.

I can think of plenty.

Edit- apologies I misread your post. Thought you just said standing areas were not allowed.

Guy's just to clear up the confusion, we are talking about safe standing not terrace standing. Safe standing as a trial can be continued as part of the trial when we get promoted, terrace standing cannot.

Why is a club official posting on a fans message board?

Sounds like a good move, am pleased to see this and also that even while planning for a new stadium we are not just waiting around.  

While I think safe standing is a better way to go just because we all want our club to be successful again and dream of better days, wouldn't a traditional terrace be fine for us if we fot promoted into league 2?
