This guy seemed to. Although it's a bit too much like Newcastle away for me.

So a game is stopped for safety if a drone is over the stadium, but a plane, carry on mate.

They have needed to do that stand for years being at the back of the lower tier was one of the worst views in football up there with Goodison.

Whilst the away section is now a safe standing area and everybody did appear to stand, the gap between the front of a seat and the back of the seat in front makes it practically impossible to comfortably sit, unless you're a small child or a dwarf!

I've probably forgotten the feeling of standing on a terrace, but there was very little room full stop - you were literally rubbing shoulders with the person next to you.

As for the chap in the plane unable to get a ticket, I'm very surprised. It seemed to me that tickets had been available in just about every nation on the earth. Another stadium for the tourists. Barely a Liverpool accent to be heard walking around the stadium pre and post game.

Excellent view, but I was in the Liverpool end.
Extremely difficult sitting on your hands when we score a belter, miss good chances or get done by VAR.

I'm surprised there aren't no-fly zones in place around large sporting events (regarding private aircraft) for the obvious reasons.

It was hard for people to just pass along the row, very tight rows.
Seemed strange under the concourse at half time too I went to the toilet and it seemed like they trapped all the fans in to the small section with security stood all around on the stairs
