mchammer 245 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 The bheasts have already been in bother with the standing section, thus making our security and police wary of it. Rangers don't want or need these problems. Basically, Rangers security don't want a standing section. I know the blue order and union bears are pushing for it, and no matter how many people sig the petition, they will not all be in the standing section. They are only signing in favour it. Realistically, one of the guys is a David Martin if I remember his name correctly, head of security as well as his assistants/partners, whatever. They really do not like the BO & UB's and would happily see the back of them. He really does not want a standing section and the police no doubt agree with him. The real matter is the cost to the board, advice from the security which will always be against this safe standing, and the matter of upsetting fans having to be moved for it if were to be in another part of the stadium. They all stand In the BF1 anyway so why is there a need to have an official standing area? They really need to push the Rangers board on it as it is their stadium and if they want it, then they simply just say go ahead, as long as the fans pay for it. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we 100% need them but as I already said in this thread. We need to get the other sections of the stadium helping with the atmosphere when thats done then IMO we can then look at the next step (safe standing) as away to improve the atmosphere even more Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post PRW. 5,631 Posted August 16, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 16, 2017 Good to see a good few RSCs backing it already. Glaswegian, Calderwood and a couple others.

McEwan's Lager 30,259 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 After two games in my seat this year i'm already wishing I got one in BF1 or BF2. The view is excellent but everyone around me is unbelievably dull. The atmosphere at games is dreadful and the club need to do something about it. If it was in the Copland Front then a lot more people who were outside the UB and TBO would go in there and you would get all sorts of different groups springing up.

Because everyone stands no matter what age they are and the atmosphere is 9 times out of 10 cracking. would love for a standing section st ibrox MuirhouseBear 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
