Truth be told, due to my back problem I often sit down for long spells even if it means I can't see properly- especially at away games (explains my match reports !!) - at home matches I am better because my seat is behind the wall where the stairs down to the concourse are so I can lean on that. I understand not everyone either can or wants to stand and that is why I have always stressed certain sections of the ground. I do not advocate standing in Family Stand or indeed West Stand. It is then up to individuals to decide whether they want go in a 'sit down' section or a 'stand up' - they can choose atmsophere or comfort. If it ever happens that fans do sit down for 90mins then the atmosphere you me and your wife all love will get even worse ! Dave

She can't stand for 90 mins now without feeling very faint; at the Bristol game she had to go sit in the car at half time (yes, I did the decent thing and offered to go with her - but she wouldn't let me, bless her). So now she's going to miss games. I write as a persistent and unrepentant stander myself. I've offered to relocate to East / West stands where people do sit down all game, but she knows what a good laugh we have with the lads round us and how I love the atmosphere on the Gelderd so she's not doing that either. I'm trying to persuade her to transfer for the odd game (to salve my conscience). Two sides to every story I guess. Anyroad, if anybody wants to borrow her ticket for any game for half the cost of a match day ticket email me. - Sean _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
