New Everton Stadium

Looks like safe standing is now going to go ahead with the option of rail seating.

Good news for the potential BMD.

Apparently its not going to happen, our pauper owner has no money, the plans are all fiction and some internet keyboard warrior knows more than anyone else about it, whilst actually knowing nothing.
 

Little known fact that our new gaff has hand rails installed already using the loophole in the rules. Sections of our ground have hand rails and normal seats at the same time. The area in this pic is the away fans section which has the hand rails installed already for any of you planning to go to the away game this season.

Are the boxes for the kopite flags and song sheets for when they were to visit you?

Surely that's not getting round the rules, it's literally just breaking them?

Nope it's not classified as a standing section. It's going to have just the regular seats installed here with the hand rails as an extra. So it's not rail seating or anything like that and seats can't be locked upright.

The tickets being sold for these areas come with big warnings that the people in these areas should expect some people to stand.
 
As long as there is a seat and it is a seat (not locked up) then it’s perfectly legal according to the rules, as I understand them.

Safe standing incorporates a seat which you can at any time fold down optionally - Sprus are basically just doing the rail seating but with the classic seat as opposed to the rectangle ones the actual safe standing incorporates.
