Safe Standing

I'm all for it, although I'd wait until a few other English clubs have introduced it to get an idea of what problems, if any, there might be. Looks like Shrewsbury may be the first, they're currently raising funds to pay for it. Liverpool fans have backed the idea with 88% voting in favour - If any group of supporters had good reason to be against it would be them. The Hillsborough tragedy would never have happened had the fences not been there whilst the Ibrox disaster was due to the design of the exits and inadequate barriers.

A feller I used to work with told me that the fans in their Kop were packed so tight that it was impossible to visit the toilets for a slash. They used to roll up a programme, point it to the ground and wee-wee down that. I expect that's the best use for a Forest programme too.
