    I see it's going to be debated in the Commons - petition must have reached the 100,000 mark.

    There's absolutely no reason why this shouldn't be brought in tbh. Shame that we don't seem very interested as a club though.

    If you listen to the latest Total Saints Podcastbthere is a section about safe standing, with a couple of the people involved in the campaign speaking. Apparently there is a demonstration of the preferred system being planned in Southampton soon..

    Just not a priority....unless it means extra league points....the club will probably go along with any decision when made. I don't see why any club would care unless it means packing more people in....unlikely to happen at Saints as we don't need extra room....and safe standing may not throw up extra places anyway.

    Most cases of safe standing do increase the capacity, the issue is more size of exits etc.

    Wba have the right idea in implementing it for the back half of an entire stand that houses away fans too.

    Presume safe standing in the Chapel means that they can bring in their zimmer frames.

    No fran, that’ll be called “Safe Knitting” allowing a safe distance for the longer needles.
