Looked like it was the whole stand standing for the whole game on Saturday, bar the front two or three rows.
Good if that is to be the case always.
Next 4 they will make us sit down, then Palace will be all standing. Charlton probably sit down the others sit down except Wolves but that wil depend on whether we have anything to play for.
Funny thing is on saturday because it was oversold there were people standing in the ailses that were on the most part ignored and at other times told to move into a row so they stood directly behind somebody else in that row.

Funny how the front few rows carried on sitting but everyone else had to stand up to see the game over the few selfish people that insist on standing.

Now you mention it I remember someone a couple of rows in front of us in N1D found someone in his seat, or at least I think that's what was going on? Poor chap seemed very nervous. Was it oversold or were people simply sitting in the wrong seats?
The entire away end was standing. Although I think fans should sit, it has to be consistent at both ends.
I spoke to a steward about this who asked me to sit down, basically he explained that whilst at the stadium their main responsibility is the home fans, and the FA regulations that are in place, means that they have to concentrate on their own fans, any thing wrong that the away fans do is noted and they deal with appropriate action when they can, this includes standing and is included in the report by the safety officer at the end and then it's up to the FA tot ale appropriate action against the away club!!
What a load of shite! I wonder how much action the FA take??
If they started ejecting away fans others would sit down, but I doubt they would want angry Arsenal fans rampaging around the outside of the stadium and in Falmer village.
That will simply never happen. 90% of away fans stand all the time. When we first played at the KC they tried to chuck a few out for standing but our fans, yes Brighton, started fighting with the stewards and 4 or 5 members of Humberside police who then quickly removed themselves from the situation.If they started ejecting away fans others would sit down, but I doubt they would want angry Arsenal fans rampaging around the outside of the stadium and in Falmer village.
