Been around for a while and met guys last year at a meeting at city about standing at our new ground. It's what's used at Bayern.
Not quite terracing but better than nothing. Several Prem clubs including Man City and Villa have shown their support of it.

Yep, Arsenal CEO and Wenger have both said they are in favour of it too

League One and Twio clubs are allowed 1.8 standing fans in standing areas per seated fan (ie a seated area of 1000 seats woudl be allowed to fit 1800 stood up)
Howewer, Arsenal are limited, for example, by TfL to 60k due to tube station capacities so we could probs only allow 1:1 unless we expanded holloway rd station but still better than nothing!
