Anfield Set For 12 Month Rail Seating Trial
CraigDS:
The club is doing its own trial of them in use as things currently are, and will likely then request to be part of a full season trial next year if they feel that they have been an improvement upon standard seats.

ANNOUNCEMENT
Rail seating trial to be expanded in the Kop
Liverpool FC is expanding its rail seating trial on the Kop following the installation of the seating last season.
Rail seating has been installed in two areas of Anfield following a safety review by the Sports Grounds Safety Authority (SGSA). The review highlighted that during matches persistent standing in the Kop and Anfield Road lower tier is an issue that needs to be addressed to ensure supporters’ safety.
The initial trial saw 7,800 seats with rail seating installed on the Kop and across the lower tier of the Anfield Road Stand.
The club will now extend the trial of railed seating on the Kop and will use the winter break of the Premier League season to install an additional 2,500 rail seats. The expansion will be across blocks 202-306, rows 61-49 on the Kop. This will take the total rail seats in the Kop to 4,300. Work will commence imminently and will take approximately five weeks to install.
Season ticket holders whose seats are impacted by these changes will be contacted in due course to explain the changes and how this will impact them.

When's our first game back at Anfield is it 26th, that's only 4 weeks away and the work will take 5 to complete, could be a tight turnaround, not sure why the work hasn't already started (unless it has and it's an old article?

So are they basically saying all rows from
49 upwards across the back of the Kop will have rail seating? In row 51 so potentially good news and could have done with a rail protecting me a few times last season lol
