I suspect most South standers would not go there, which is of course the point , to remove the low paying end of the fan base by making the facilities to stand the worst they could be. Save by only doing half the length as there won't be enough standers to fill even that.
Sure the roof needs extending along the sides but I'd happily stand there, you'll be up and close with the pitch and having sat there many times the view is great (and that's sitting!)
Surely the view is better on pitch side? If you're behind the goal and low down you have not got a clue of what's going on the other side in terms of space, hence the south stand has such a bad view. Pitch side terrace you can see the whole thing and don't need to move around (you can't anyway as this isn't the 80s)
