The new Brentford stadium has been confirmed as having white, yellow, green, red, white and black seats scattered about with no two of the same next to each other.

Apparently it's meant to make the stadium look fuller when not at capacity. Should certainly be interesting, it's not gone down well with the fans.

Similar to Sporting/Udinese. It does kind of work but it's a bit tinpot.

Why don’t they just do what St. Johnstone done years ago and have giant cardboard cut outs of fans behind the goal? :lol:

That new Bernabeu looks fucking ghastly. 

I have no idea why it needs “upgraded” at all, it’s already immense.

Probably just some sort of cock waving competition because Barca are planning on doing up the Nou Camp.

I don’t think they’re adding any capacity it’s a shell around the existing structure

It’ll give them more hospitality facilities, bars, pie stalls etc..

The bigger change is the sliding roof

Whether it’s rainy enough in Madrid to warrant a sliding roof is unclear

It mainly depends on how close to the Plain In Spain they are

Safe standing also in the away end. Spurs have installed it with the foresight that the laws will be changed, very wise move. 

I take it that the seats will be locked in place until the law changes meaning that fans will just stand in front of the seat as they do now as it'll be illegal to  have the 'safe standing' activated. Yep, that makes total sense...

'Safe standing' :lol:

Why are folk not questioning this bullshit?

Only mugs think it's anything other than a different seat design. Probably romanticised by people who have never stood on terracing in their life.

However, good luck to the stadium companies that are able to flog it to them.

In regards to...?

The need for 'safe standing'. Just have terracing. They're perfectly fine and only unsafe if you breach the capacity and have shite design that isn't maintained.

If you tried to force 5000 folk in to a stand that held only 2000 you'd have serious problems.

Never understood the term 'safe standing'.

Exactly this. The whole thing is a con. Hundreds of thousands of people stand on terracing each week without incident.

I think it must be the implication that previous versions were “unsafe standing” that must be irritating him

Possibly there would be less annoyance if they called it “Safer Standing” or “Standing but with the, admittedly, very low previous risk factor minimised a bit further”

(or SBEAVLPRFMABF as the cool kids would no doubt call it)

Or just call it what it is, a seat.
