Really pisses me off this..... why is it all of a sudden so dangerous to stand during the match, but before the match, during half time, and after the match it's perfectly acceptable and "safe" to stand up with the added hazard of thousands of people moving at the same time....
I'd really like to see any conclusive evidence that supports that standing at football matches is dangerous, especially since the introduction of all seater stadiums. The very fact that there are rows and rows of seats prevents any events such as hillsborough ever happening again because people simply cant bunch that tightly, if anything the seats themselves pose the hazard!!!
I personally say take out the seats, as they pose a health and safety hazard to any fans who wish to stand up.
