My wife says she NEVER see us score a goal, because the guys in front of her, ALWAYS stand up as we are about to score (we have season tickets in JSS)

You have to know the password to unlock the entrance to row EE. Bit like getting into a Hogwarts common room. If you ever found out we'd have to change it.Please enlighten me
As I have stated previosly Im on DD and there is nobody sat behind this row in our part of the JSS apart from those behind glass.Ive sat in the same seat since JSS was built

I prefer standing in seated areas.
Matt Done's finish for his goal is unusual!
Das Rangen RoverienThat's another box ticked. Which German car do you drive?![]()
In the second one he goes to a quidditch match and sits on the back row.Never read / seen any Harry Potter Row EE is proably all a fantasy just like Hogwarts

And what about those who want to sit down and have a decent view?If you want to sit, get a seat near the front. If you want to stand, get a seat near the back.

Second most ridiculous thing said in this thread.The only way to watch football is standing, unless there is an age or health issue. Standing should be compulsory and any militant sit downers should be forced to attend cricket, tennis, or stay at home and be armchair fans. There could be designated sitting areas in grounds and if they stand during exciting moments then that should be taken as evidence that they are fit to enter all standing areas and moved forthwith.
I am getting a bit old to walk to the away grounds and then stand for the whole time. My legs ache for a couple of days after an away game.I spent the time and money of going to see our beloved United at Meadow Lane last night. I just wished I could have seen the game! All around were stood for the majority of the match so my view was pretty limited. The view of our first goal was obscured completely and our second was obscured at the last minute as the people in front of me stood at the last moment.
I understand people having varying views on sitting or standing but for short, elderly, children or the infirm have little chance to see a match properly if people IN SEATED AREAS do not confirm to a seated stadium policy.
One way to overcome this problem would be to have club stewards ensure that fans are seated. That would not suit those who prefer to stand.
What seems to be a way to overcoming the problem without upsetting anyone would to have designated standing areas (seats could still be available to satisfy the Taylor recommendations) and other areas of each stand could be classed as seated only.
Surely not too difficult solution to implement if Football clubs could get their act together.
PS
Can anyone describe the Murphy goal last night as I missed it completely. My son missed it too and he is over 6ft tall.
Looking forward to the day when standing is back
At the same time hoping that by the time it does I shall still be able to.
Never enjoyed sitting at a football match - not conducive to the excitement and energy required to watch a game of football - just doesn't sit well with me

Bottom of Adlington Road. Used to sell morning papers to steel workers in early 1960s. 110 terminus.I'm not surprised if you live at the top of those steps on your avatar...

Basically you want to halve (rough estimate, probably a lot worse) the club's ticket sales by telling, sorry, forcing people not to come?
For me it's a simple case of watching the game. If we sit down, I can see. If people in front stand up, I can't. I go to football matches to watch the game (shocking, I know). You're discriminating against short people who like to celebrate goals.
