Simply not true.

I've followed rugby league since I was 5 years old. My cousin is a former British Lion and now a professional coach. I've had a season ticket for every season since it became Summer rugby, (I'm only 23 too so that's since I was 10 years old) and before season tickets I still went to the winter games (just without a season ticket, missed the odd match.)

I choose to stand in the South Stand, not because I'm poor and can't afford the other, but because I like standing up, and I like been on the side of the pitch (not behind the sticks).

I'm more than happy for you to say "most", as "most" is accurate! There are 90% in the SS who don't have a clue what they're talking about, but you can't say "all" it's just simply not true.

Well said.

Tell you what

As I get older the more I appreciate seats at sporting events

Me too I wouldnt think of standing now,Although while I'm sat in the north stand enjoy the atmosphere eminating from the south stand

You can't pre-book where you stand but you can pre-book where you sit.
Hence, I sit and I have an extra hour per week that would otherwise be lost.
Mind you, I get the same whining eejit sat directly behind me every time.

Only behind you? I've got them to the front & side of me.
& don't get me started on those loudmouths who insist on bellowing out the score on the sky game I've recorded to watch later.
GRRRRRR!!
