Harmless joke, nothing to see here.

I don’t think it is, is it.

Think people are saying it was never going to be like that though.

Enough was put out to make us think we were getting a big single tier stand.

Sure we’ll find out more today or tomorrow when they do a video about it.

I think if the divide is so clear it gives people the opportunity to treat the upper tier like the upper G and this idea that everyone in that stand will be on their feet all game doesn’t happen.

Ok. So it is the same as Dortmund etc but it is not a single tier because of some other reason, and the club never marketed or communicated it as such?

Maybe I'm suffering from that thing where you believe Anya Taylor Joy was really called Anna, nelson Mandela effect or whatever.

You need to go and buy yourself a joke book.

I think maybe we should just sack the idea and stay in our graveyard if we can't have a massive blue wall. I was going to miss the restrictive views anyway. It's for the best I reckon

They defo marketed it as one big stand. But obv its changed slightly.

What’s stopping this being called one big stand? Is there both an upper and lower concourse on two different levels?

Seriously you need to calm down, how can you get so wound up about a joke ? Is it offensive? No, you don’t find it funny just let it go instead of a personal attack.

It is one big stand, with a passageway in the middle.

Humour eh? It's always been subjective

So technically speaking, is this a 'kop' style single tier stand or no?

A lot of thought seems to have gone into something that is a long way off being a thing with safe standing.

Looks to me like we’ve ended up compromising the south stand to incorporate safe standing.

I’m sure the original renders were of a much bigger stand with a 60k capacity.

Not sure, never been in the Kop, is it as big as our stand ?

Wouldn't safe standing increase the capacity?

I've had a look at Dan Meis stuff, and on between liking porn bots and taking shots at the club for bin bagging him, there is lots of talk of a blue wave, a bluenami, but he doesn't seem to say Single Tier or Single Stand at any point.

Maybe I am just completely mistaken ultimately.

A kop is a type of grandstand, it could be smaller than my back garden and still being a kop
