The wonderful Dell had a curious arrangement where seats had been installed on (part of) a former terrace. There was still an area of standing behind these seats, starting near the half-way line, which gradually tapered down towards the corner flag, with the seats in front and standing behind.
I imagine this design would have allowed those in seats to see into the corners. Not ideal, perhaps, but it worked.
You could do the same in the Cheadle End, with the couple of blocks nearest the Pop Side designated and equipped for safe standing, and suitably tapered off to allow seated fans in the rest of the stand to see the whole pitch. Just a thought!
