Safe standing in the long side lower?
Safe standing in the long side lower?
Is that what they are doing?
Been in there today and lots of the seats are out, also the pitch run off has been sorted.

I think those orange lines will get in the way of the ball

I thought that those seats had only just been replaced as the old ones were looking very tired having been exposed to the elements at the front of that stand.

It is a shame they haven’t made the rest of the cricket field safe standing as well.

Re: Safe standing in the long side lower?
I presume it's a soft resin base material around the pitch?
Like they have in kids parks?

Re: Safe standing in the long side lower?
Isn't this part of the structural work they are doing? Seats will then be put back.
Re: Safe standing in the long side lower?
It won't be safe standing because standing blocks the view from the lounges.

Re: Safe standing in the long side lower?
They are updating the floodlights on the stand roof. The seats are removed so that the "lift" has a solid platform for its feet.

Re: Safe standing in the long side lower?
The run off area looks good however, the LED boards have been removed at some points as there is not enough space

Re: Safe standing in the long side lower?
'safe standing' seems such a gimmicky term.
i don't 'safely' stand up whilst i'm having a pyss.
when i started going on the turf in the early 80s i thought the bob lord lot were posh for sitting down.
but what do i know?
