Where shall I start? Firstly, I'm a disabled ST holder. I'm in the Disabled row at the front, area 5. The seats are ok but the bar behind my seat; I have to be careful how I sit down, or I could hit my head. Some of my long-term fans I sat with for many years 20+ have been moved, which is a shame.
What are your thoughts? |  |

No, fans I have known for a long time, I have always sat with, had to be moved. Well Ya I have my own fans on TikTok  
But what are your thoughts? That's if you sit in the lower tier of the SBR stand, that is | |

Well I love the bar in front and for me that is the most important thing but yes a did bash myself on the one behind me a couple of times but soon remember it was there . Seat is not as comfortable as the previous ones sloping upwards to the front by a couple of inches I'm not sure why as previous ones were flat . |  | | |

Never got to test my seat, 2 new fatties have moved in either side which meant my seat was overhung quite substantially.
So the new rail was quite handy to lean on for half time. |  | | |

They haven't filed down the ends of the tubes on mine so it was cutting the back of my calf | | | |

A slightly different note, but it looked like the disabled section of the lower Britannia stand had some issues with substitutes warming up and blocking their view during the second half. Similarly it looks like subs are now allowed coaches with them and are doing much more structured warm ups for some reason. |  | | |

They did. The Sunderland player was trying to be apologetic I think, but it’s always been a bit of an issue. Yes, the coach there as well! | | | |

The seats are higher than the previous seats, ( so no good for the average female) or short people. Also, because the seat is bolted to the safe standing bar, they actually tilt backwards about 30dgs, but you cant sit with your back against the chair because the bar for the row behind, prevents you from sitting back in the chair. Its bloody ridicuulous! |  |

I was shocked at how uncomfortable my seat was when I sat down at halftime. It’s almost like they are a token gesture not designed to be sat on. Quite like the bars but they seem to be a foot too low for anyone to lean on comfortably. |  | | |

I did for many years both old and new stand.
Well you shouldn’t bump your noggin on a metal bar should you.
Surely they would have thought of that ! | |

Just to echo this, the new seat is incredibly uncomfortable even if I'm just using it for half time and the bar needs to be about a foot higher.
I don't like to whinge and have wanted safe standing for years, but what they've done is crap, the worst of both worlds. |  |

Are you allowed to say “ fatties” on here? Sounds a bit like Fatism to me 🤣 | | | |

Designed for people who refuse to sit down. Perfect. | |
