It looked like a 5 year old had cut it and the surrounding area out with scissors and mum had tried to stick it back on with a pritt stick before Dad got home and saw it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The truth is whilst it happened at Hillsborough it could have happened anywhere. Absolutely. Any large stadium at the time with fencing. I will never get the 'Hillsborough will be the last ground to get safe standing / rail seating' thing. It is literally mental. It should be the first English ground to get it. It has been proved to work. It's a progressive, innovative way around a disaster that wouldn't have happened without the fences. Introduce safe standing rail seats. At Hillsborough, at any ground. Just to be clear, no massive mental metal fencing pinning anyone in. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't matter how mental it is there will never be standing at Hillsborough Announce it and see the Hillsborough Families Group go "mental" then watch the queue of the great and good run to media to slag off the idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hillsborough families I understand, which is why Liverpool should be the first to do it. Everyone knows it wasn’t standing terraces that caused the disaster, it was those hideous fences. And there were very few grounds that didnt have at the time. Good grief Ken Bates wanted electric fences putting up at Stamford bridge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
