    Happy standing day. You know what they say about standing c ock. In this case it's the club that has no conscience.

    I believe all of OR1 apart from some of the rows at the front so they dont block the disabled stand views. You would have had notification when renewing last year that your seat is earmarked for safe standing if in that area.

    Joking aside. I'm glad because it 's the area my mates sit in and I was getting fed up of people in front standing all game anyway. At least I'll be able to stand now without someone behind me telling me to sit down.

    I'm down by the side of the Corner Stand, in the 3-seat rows at that end of the Ponty. Nobody has said a word to me or anyone around me, at any time, about safe standing.

    What is the clubs reasoning behind having zero consultation with the fans about this?
    The location, all the way to the front of the stand, is bonkers. Who's paying for the extra stewarding stopping cokehead corner from legging it onto the pitch now that they'll be stood up all the way to the front?

    Why would you expect them to be cheaper?
