    And also only 207, what's the point, less than 1% of capacity, will look a bit silly removing seats to introduce rails.

    Because surely removal of a row of seats reduces capacity.
    What’s the current capacity of upper NW corner?
    To be replaced with 207 sheep pens.
    And what’s the capacity of TL Dallas lower tier? to be replaced with 130 further sheep pens

    Wouldn't you just remove seats and replace them with rails keeping the capacity the same?

    It's a chav pleaser. Don't care about sitting or standing

    You need bigger floor space per person I believe.

    It clearly states "initial application", so that we can 'trial' them.

    Because you have to start small to trial it to show the authorities that you are able to implement it safely before being able to increase the amount.

    So is this for next season? And if so what about those that bought tickets there especially after the ticket office said they knew nothing about it

    I thought same until I saw this. Not sure how the example on the link converts back to seating, my understanding was that it was an area that could be used for either standing or seating

    This system would probably just see the current seats removed and new ‘standing’ ones inserted. The only potential loss would be on width, as these could be slightly wider than the current seats.
