Safe standing to be introduced at Bramhall Lane for next season
Sheffield United have confirmed there will 3,000 safe standing positions for home fans
Safe Standing is set to be introduced at Bramhall Lane during the 2025/26 football season, after Sheffield United held a series of consultations.
3,000 safe standing positions will be installed at the back of the Kop, with space also being created in the away end.
The club says it intends to finish the work by the end of 2025, with construction being carried out between home fixtures.
United's chief executive officer, Stephen Bettis, said: "Whilst Safe Standing was always viewed as a long-term project, it has now become more viable from a financial perspective."
"We can now improve safety and crowd management while maintaining compliance from the relevant authorities.
"Safe Standing has dominated our meetings with the FAB and we are delighted that our consultations have brought us to this position where we will implement in the near future.
"Hopefully this is seen as a win-win situation and members of the FAB should be congratulated for their tenacity in petitioning for what the supporters want Bramall Lane to look like."
