And quite a lot want to stand.
Where do you propose everyone from the Ninian that wish to sing go? There will be nowhere near enough room in the Canton, especially obvious considering the yellow shirts were bullying people there as well.
Surely as paying and devoted fans, WE have a right to have our voices heard and wishes met, just like you. Some people amongst our fanbase are trying to paint people like me as a bloody criminal just for trying to stand and make an atmosphere, and I'm sick of it. The crime of supporting my team
An on an aside, you list three singers with the wrong kind of voice for singing football songs - pavaorotti, bryn terfel, are more like it - they don't sit down.
P.S. Would ANYONE in their right mind purchase a ticket in the section NEXT to the away fans, and expect everyone to sit down and be all pacified. The stewards will say their might be disabled people behind, but press enough and you'll find they're lying. The CLUB are telling them to enforce these rules now. And they say they care

Guy near me asked people to sit down, he couldn't see the game.
Got abused, called a "part time fan", that he should "f*** off and stand".
The guy was a pensioner with a stick.
But hey, some neanderthals believed they've more right to stand and block his view than anything else...
