Island Girl Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 Article shared by Supporters Direct (https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2017/oct/22/football-safe-standing-home-advantage-studies) suggests that safe standing can improve atmosphere and possibly noisy home crowd could influence referee. Interestingly they cite some research showing that more goals, for both home and away teams, are scored when there are no fans behind the goal. Any stattos know if this is the case at Rugby Park? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fletch Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 I'm all for safe standing, it's an expensive project though. A cheaper alternative to improve atmosphere and create noise is lager. Lager at games needs to be reviewed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayD Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 I always felt Killie scored more at the Moffat end, but have zero evidence to back that up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We get mid strength beer at games in Australia and I don’t think it would be a problem to introduce it into Scottish football games. I’m sure it would be a lot more controlled nowadays compared to the past 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
