Was the safe standing section up and running on Saturday ? Did anyone notice any different in the crowd behaviour,
I was in H5 - QQ ...
No one around me sat down for the whole match...
There were stewards stood on the steps, never said a word to anyone ...
Seemed safe though ... 🤔

It was supposed to have been put in the away end but can't say I noticed.
I was looking out for it in the putney end, couldn't see it from the HE - anyone any closer could confirm?

Unfortunately people at the front standing in the Hammersmith End are causing a problem for alot of our younger fans who cannot see the action whole we attack towards it, its inconsiderate at best and bloody annoying at worst! I doesn't affect me as I'm over 6ft but its pretty selfish.

That is the main reason I no longer attend, I can't stand for long and I certainly can't jump up and down, I'm not going to pay a lot of money to look at someone's backside.

My wife and I were season ticket holders for years but she is 5'5" and just got fed up with missing all the action at the Hammy End. She refused to renew her ST and after a couple of seasons of going on my own I gave mine up too. When I posted a couple of years back about this I was told by one or two that I was just an out of touch, old spoil sport.
I'm fully supportive of safe standing but once it's up and running for home supporters then enforce sitting in the seated areas!
I'll add my voice to those who are frustrated by people standing up every time we (Fulham) get over the halfway line attacking the Hammersmith End. For children, short people and those with bad backs or other ailments, it is exasperating.
Take the seats out of the hammy end and have all standing like we used to. No one seemed to complain back then. Children on shoulders, standing on the division barriers, hanging from the hammy roof end rafters. That's what I grew up with.
People even sang and created an atmosphere back then too! How times change!!!!

That will never happen as you well know.
If people are standing at the front of the Hammersmith end ask them to sit down if they refuse deal with it and maybe next time they will understand that being selfish has consequences and if they do it again do the same thing until they understand that being selfish has consequences

They dont give a toss, the stewards do nothing and if you say something they get aggressive, Id quite happily give the a smack but why should I get banned for their arrogance, most are not ST Just casual or tourists (or away fans)

Totally agree and this standing up once the ball comes over the halfway line is completely unnecessary, inconsiderate and selfish.
Just seen a post from worldofjcc he is sat in the putney end,the camera pans to the back of the stand which does show safe standing rails having been installed.
