I was at Hillsborough for the Burnley v Newcastle FA Cup semi-final with my six**** year old sister. How we survived the crush I just don't know and the afternoon was a portent of things to come.

The new design of seat to accommodate either safe sitting or standing is a million miles away from the crush barriers, steep banking and slippy steps of yesteryear, thank God!
