Would there be any chance we could get the "Safe Standing Roadshow" to make an appearance at Villa Park sometime? I (and i'm sure a few others) would like to see the rail seating and understand a bit more about how it could work in practice.

I am in the process of negotiating that with Villa ay the moment but didn't want to say anything still we have it settled. Just trying to work out where we'll do it. FSF are definitely 'in'!

The survey has gone over the 1000 mark today! Still at 97.5% in favour.

I tweeted it and many random people who I have never met seemed very pleased!

I am not sure how many I need, or what's next tbh.

Someone on here said I only need 700 and I am well past that already. Over 1000 responses is 2.5 % of a matchday crowd so I would think that would do it, particularly considering that it isn't a marginal poll, it is the very definition of landslide!

I would like to bring the safe standing roadshow to either Spurs or Everton though, and get a few more paper surveys done. I thinks the paper survey if more reflective because I get people to fill it in whether they agree or not. I think there may be a slight bias online, in that I think people who are in favour of standing are more drawn to it.

I would also like people to be able to see the safe standing roadshow. Ther are definitely people in both the yes & no camps who think we are bringing back the terraces.

Anyway - it has been indicated that Paul Faulkner want to meet me again before or after the Everton game to discuss where we go with it now. so I will know more in early November I guess.

Lots of luck and good wishes, Amfy

Or

'You go, girl!'

Either way your questionnaire and responses have exceeded expectations.
Attend the meeting with pride.
