I like sitting down. If I pay best part of £30 for a football match. I'm sitting down.
Sure. If we score, I'm standing up and going mental.
SA.
I have to say. I never got the whole sitting down thing. At football matches or concerts.
I like standing up. If I pay £80 to see The Stone Roses. I'm standing up and going nuts in The Mosh Pit.
Similarly, I never sat down at Forest games until terraces disappeared. Stand with your mates, no fannying around to get tickets together, just enter the ground at the same time can stand where you want.
Different perspectives I guess, but I really miss the terraces, way more fun than now-cheaper too.
I can see where you are coming from Zico. I used to be the same.
The problem for me now though is I struggle to stand through an whole game now due to arthritis in my back, knees and hips. However, if i sit, my knees lock up due to the limited leg room, so I'm kinda f****d if i do and f****d if i dont.
I do prefer to stand and if it gets too much for the old bones, then I will park my arse for a moment when the action is in midfield, just for some relief before standing up again. I feel really bad for fellow supporters trying to get past me though on their way to or from their seat, especially if i am having a sit down, as it can take an age for me to get up! So if you are one of these fans, please accept my apologies :-/
