A matter for government

Chelsea
Will consider it if legislation permits

Crystal Palace

Everton
Not thinking about it at present

Hull City

Leicester City
Open-minded

Liverpool

Manchester City
Open to the option

Manchester United
In favour in principle

Middlesbrough
No opinion until the parameters are clear

Southampton
Unclear

Stoke City
Open-minded

Sunderland
Understood to be broadly supportive

Swansea City
Supportive but final decision rests with the local council

Tottenham Hotspur
Supportive if legislation permits

Watford
In favour of trials

West Bromwich Albion
In favour

West Ham United
In favour

So City are open to the option, which is a start. In favour would have been better. But at least the club are open to the option, which is a positive.

As for me, it's a yes! Either South stand lower, or North stand lower, if, and hopefully when the North stand get's expanded?

Think it would be a good idea behind the goal where most fans stand anyway. Me personally prefer to sit but don't see why people shouldn't have a choice. Don't think it will happen though.

 

[yeseye]

100% YES.
Maybe generate some atmosphere.

 

[Shaelumstash]

It's a big yes from me.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

100% yes. the south stand and then the north stand when we expand the ground. the only way we get a better atmosphere is getting the 18-25 year olds back i nthe ground

 

[Tanzeylee]

Yes

 

[bluemike]

YES.
Been waiting for years for standing to come back.

 

[manchester blue]

100% YES.
Maybe generate some atmosphere.

Why would it generate atmosphere? Serious question. People stand now in the South Stand and, apart from odd games, the atmosphere is awful.

Are you prepared to pay, via increased ST prices, for he work to install standing?

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Yes fans should have the opportunity to either stand or sit

 

[Lrrr]

Yes
