students .I remember as a lad in the 50s and early 60s when it was a big game and crowd they were private and they used to watch from the bedroom window

I don't aim for hilarity, merely a mild grin will suffice and you've provided that so I thank you for that.

As for bickering and desperation, I refer you to your previous post. You are funny though. Even if you don't mean to be.

Get over yourself.

You made a silly comment in a public forum and got pulled up on it and now you're getting all defensive and precious.

You are aware of how forums work right?

I would like to see safe standing in the south.

I didn't make a silly comment. I said:

"Can't believe this will be the last season with the South Stand, and probably the last season with the unique Headingley atmosphere"

And you didn't pull me up on it, you found it objectionable but didn't have the vocabulary to object in a coherent way. That's why we got the cringeworthy and inane sarcasm instead of anything relevant to what I said. And then you answered a question I didn't ask And now you're so insecure you'll just keep going on and on and on. Yes I'm aware of how internet forums work, and how people like you like to use them as a proxy for real life.

Sorry, but I can't believe this will be the last season with the South Stand, and probably the last season with the unique Headingley atmosphere. There, I said it again. Hark at me moaning on and on like I've lost a toy. Do I even know there's standing in the new south stand?

Now do we have to go through all the "jokes" and sarcasm again, or can you accept that someone on the internet is concerned that the new development might impact upon the atmosphere at Headingley? If not, just move on fella. I'm not going to be the last person to be going on about acoustics etc., and if my one line about it gets you so upset you start answering phantom questions, you'll be in for a tough time over the coming months and years.

Blimey, someone's touchy.

I'm most alarmed that acoustics have become more important than the financial well being of the club in some people eyes......since when did turning up to the rugby on a Friday night turn into an episode of Glee..."oh we sung louder than you!"

I have the s.

I also can't wait until Thursday when I can have this conversation in a pub with someone who has the social skills to create a dialogue. It'll go something like this:

"Can't believe this will be the last season with the South Stand, and probably the last season with the unique Headingley atmosphere"

"It might not be that bad. A new culture will replace the old one, and there'll still be 5000 odd standing there."

"Yeah, you might be right. I hope so"

THE END

Hmmm

I'm most alarmed too. Who are these people? We should go and find them and hit them with some heavy duty internet sarcasm

There's no place at Headingley for people who would rather see Leeds fold than have a mixture of standing and seating down one side. These people, and I'm sure they exist, should be banned

And you complain about sarcasm.

I've gone native!

Seriously though, my opinion this morning on Facebook was:

"I'll be sad to see the old girl go, but if that's the only way they can crunch the numbers, so be it. Let's just hope that the last game in front of the SS is a GF Semi win over Wigan"

I haven't changed my opinion, but I also enjoy beating Wigan in the final so that bit isn't so important

I like it and let's fact it, it's long, long overdue. Can't wait to see the new South Stand packed out, will look and sound amazing.

This season could be the last time some of the senior players play in front of 15 to 19000 crowds at Headingley
