Newcastle stadium changes take shape as club work with experts used by Liverpool and Leeds

The new safe standing section at St James' Park is starting to take shape ahead of what promises to be another memorable campaign for Newcastle United.

Newcastle have enlisted the help of Stadia by GL Events and KH Stadium Seating Solutions, who have manufactured and installed rail seats at Anfield, Elland Road and Molineux. In fact, it was these experts who helped fit the 600 rail seats you might have spotted in the away end at St James' last season.

They have now returned 12 months on. Seats were removed from Strawberry Corner last month and new independent safe standing barriers have since been fitted alongside the newly-attached seats in this section of the Gallowgate End.
