Some clubs already 'allow' standing. If you go to watch villa a huge section of the holt end stand for most of the game-without being pestered by stewards. Similar at Tottenham and watching games on tv you can always see fans standing, its almost an unwritten rule at some grounds.

Fans standing up and stewards turning a blind eye is different to increasing capacity by 3000 due to designated standing areas.

I know some clubs with older grounds still have standing areas are still allowed to use them, but has anyone in the top two divisions been allowed to build a new standing area recently?

It will happen, its already happening with some clubs now allowing, in accordance with their local council, supporters to stand in designated areas.

Do you know which clubs these are?

I don't think we'll need the extra capacity unless we make it to the Premiership and I don't think they allow standing areas.

I have a feeling pro standing football supporters are going to be disappointed as this is about rugby, not football. At the moment, I'd rate the chances of standing at Ashton Gate to watch football as similar to bringing back smoking.
