I could not stay tuned, but on the agenda for the morning chat was an article on possibly changing some top flight grounds to have 'some' standing.

We know it's what every footy fan wants. Just wondered how it was recevied on the wireless?

Its being brought up by a MP.

MP calls for return of football terracing - Yahoo! News UK

Great news this is being raised......

Oh to make the North stand at Falmer Standing.........

I think with the new Card system in place it would stop over crowding in a Safe Standing Area as those without cards simply wont get in unless they have a valid ticket for that day!

Whether it will actually happen remains to be seen, I do hope so though as sitting at football is SHITHOUSE innit!

Increases, no?

How can you 'return' to something that never stopped?
At every all-seater stadium, at every match, there are 'standing' areas...totally ignored by stewards...for home supporters.
Collusive Hypocricy!

Increases, no?

Health and Safety innit
