West Bromwich Albion is keen to test out safe-standing in the Premier League - but only if the law changes.
Scottish champions Celtic have introduced around 3,000 safe-standing places this season.
Mark Miles, the club's new Director of Operations, recently visited Celtic Park to see whether the logistics would be viable within The Hawthorns.
Celtic have allocated one of their corners to the redevelopment. However, that would unlikey to happen at Albion and one of seating areas behind the goal has already been ear-marked as a potential position for the standing rails.
Speaking at last week's fans Albion Assembly he said: "If an amendment to the law was made, I’d be keen for WBA to be at the forefront and be involved in a pilot scheme.
"We should be keen to explore it because I think at some point a club will be allowed a trial. But there will be significant costs involved.”
Miles told fans that the iniative in Celtic Park had cost around £500,000 and that any future development was unlikely to lower the cost of admition or increase the ground's capacity.
Much like at present, tickets are allocated on an individual basis to a specific seat within the safe-standing area, which is then simply folded into the structure and allows for adequate space to stand.
However, for any pilot to come into effect, the Premier League would have to propose that Govenerment change the legislation that was introduced after the Hillsbrough tradegy.
Presently, the top two tiers of English football have to feature all seater stadia.
