James 5,343 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Anyone else get one from the club. The whole of the shed lower stood vs Hull, must of sent alot of letters out today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NattyBlue 44 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 lol, what's the fucking problem, always on the tickets "PERSISTENT STANDING IS NOT ALLOWED" o.w...bahwhat did the letter say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James 5,343 Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 It said,"It was noted at the hull match on the 15th that hte area you were sitting there was alot of persistent standing. Please refrain from persistent standing otherwise the club will be forced to take action which will result in ejections from the stadium and membership bans."I was right at the back just about, if i didnt stand i wouldnt have seen a thing. There were people sitting on the steps next to me and the asian stewards were to scared to say anything to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray. 217 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Well what about the Standing at Craven Cottage? If I had sat I wouldn't have seen anything as it was standing the whole match Perhaps it's a different policy with Fulham. As far as I can see on the ticket it doesn't mention anything about standing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
middleoftheshed 388 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Everyone stands at away games, it's one of the reasons why the atmosphere is so much better.There was a lot of chucking out done last season in the shed lower for standing, I didn't get a letter though.

Ray. 217 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 (edited) I've got a ticket in Matthew Harding Lower (Gate 16) for the Spurs Match, and appreciate that there will be standing in this area. I will just take the lead from those around me. I don't want to be thrown out however. I can understand the policy applying to the West Stand where I was for the Hull Game and that was mostly sitting, with standing when a foul occurred or a goal was scored. I've changed stands for the Spurs match because I actually do want to stand as I feel I can appreciate the game and asmosphere better if i'm standing. I will try and abide by the rules....

middleoftheshed 388 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 The double letter rows of the MHL are usually ok in my experience.If you're down the front theres some idiot who writes down your seat number and threatens you with bans.

TylerCFC 7 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Like it's going to do any good. I was thrown out a few times a couple of years ago. It wasn't that bad it was later in the game and nothing happened after I left. I even went back midweek and sat in the same stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I'm gonna stand on Saturday, the club can kiss my fucking arse. Its petty and its ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray. 217 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Good on you Alex, why should the club preach to us about standing, if it enhances our enjoyment of the match surely that's what's important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I mean its not as if I'm going to stand for all the match, but if I choose to stand I shall do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shane 2,275 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 If the whole stand is standing it would be stupid not too. But i.e if there is a family going to a match then they have to stand aswell.They should put all of the hardcore fans in the shed and let them stand away.

Laylabelle 9,539 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 That would make sense tbh save a whole lot of bother cause lets face it a letter aint gana change anything.Stewards dont seem bothered lol but then again get a whole health and safety sega no doubt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kez 2,727 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Yeah if the person in front of you is standing then you have to or you don't see anything, but there's a family area for a reason.There should be an area for fans that wanna stand, it adds to the atmosphere.

TrueChelseaBlue 105 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Yup, i agree, if youn wanna stand, there should be a specified area for it. Though if i wanna stand, i do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray. 217 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Yes, there should be a specified area for Standing, and when you book your ticket you are made aware that there is persistant standing in that area, so that you avoid that area if you want to sit.

TylerCFC 7 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Yup, i agree, if youn wanna stand, there should be a specified area for it. Though if i wanna stand, i do I try to be sympathetic to my surroundings. If an elderly couple or a family are sitting in the seats behind me I won't stand that much. But if it's some middle aged person sitting there eating their food and casually watching the match I'll stand and sing all I want. Shed End is definitely the place to be. The only thing that resembles an atmosphere at the Bridge. That is if you don't count THOSE flags as atmosphere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Shed should be made a standing area for Over 18s imo. Would add to the atmosphere, and seeing the whole standing doing the bouncy would be fucking incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
