Leeds South Stand is split, terracing at the bottom and seats along the top. I do like the idea of terracing but feel the owners have other priorities first. Would they even entertain such a move if they have aspirations on getting Latics back into the top of division's. (Stadia in the PL has to be all seater or small sections safe standing), not sure about Championship.
Surely by changing the structure of the stadium it would imply the owners are happy for them to be swimming around the L1, L2 divisions without being too ambitious.
I do believe it would be great for us and help to add to the atmosphere at big games. Maybe even potentially increase ground capacity? Imagine South & North Stand full terracing on Good Friday, from 25k to 28-30k? Think of the noise.
I think it's probably a nice pipe dream though.
