Dave, love your positive response earlier (must admit I'm scared of the playoffs as it seems we've scraped most results this season so far) and I'm worried that if we don't do it this season....? Re your earlier rants:
> Two other points > 1. This kicking it out when a player is injured malarky, Not arf. It's the refs job to be responsible for the safety of players. Let him blow if it seems one of the great big fairies that (dis)grace our game merits attention enough to stop the game. AND let's have a proper, manly, drop ball on the restart. John Updike wrote about the engulfing cowardliness of gimmes in golf. This kicking the ball out and then passing it back is the same kind of lily-livered chickenry! > 2. Standing \ stewards. > > I have not seen anyone injured at ER since we became all seater despite the > fact that we are "persistent standers" I always imagine evacuating a seated area in an emergency to be manifoldly more perilous than open stands. My nephew got his skins badly bruised when we scored and the bloke behind accidentally knocked him into the seats in front.I always imagine evacuating a seated area in an emergency to be manifoldly more perilous than open stands.

Otherwise they miss all the best bits (when the adults suddenly stand around them).Actually, our day in the South Stand was best for the kids because everyone stood (and was allowed to) for the entire game, so they could stand on their seats throughout and see the whole game.

But I feel as pessimistic that things might change. When I used to watch Bilbao there was a small section behind the goals (Maybe up to about Row M) for the lads, and it was good in there. (As good as being at an away game). nif _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
