    exactly what I thought, and you just wonder how much other stuff gone on
    that wasn't given the exposure

    Thoughts with their families and friends as well as the other fans injured or affected by what happened that day.

    Hard to think it is now 29 years ago today that i woke up met the lads and set off for sheffield hoping for a place in another cup final,yet a matter of hours later we would be coming home in silence and shock not believing what we had seen and gone through.

    If anyone has spare couple of quid, a great cause. Elkan spent many a hour unpaid and helped bring some justice for Hillsbrough

    Understandably it's a very tough subject to approach.

    I've been to two grounds in Germany and stood - Dortmund and St Pauli and both times I felt 100% safe, the standing areas were well managed/maintained and organised and I do feel it helped create a better atmosphere.

    I do believe if it's done correctly it can work really well.

    My main concern in this country is we do still have a ****load of knobheads out there that will ruin it/**** it up some how

    I think the causes and problems of Hillsborough have nothing to do with what rail seating provides but its the obvious association.

    Standing in seating areas now can be dangerous. Also the non sense of people wanting to stand and people wanting to sit in the same section. Give people the choice, if you buy a seat you sit.

    SOS detractors are using this as another stick to beat them with saying they dont speak for all fans, but they are just bringing the debate to the forefront and asking for opinion.

    I'd say the vast majority of match going fans want this but it will be no time as Anfield.
    Spot on with every word.
