Which Premier League club was the last to develop their large terraced 'end', thus benifitting from the increased gate receipts from the increased capacity for longest?

Clue: it was Liverpool FC

Has nobody mentioned to these people when they pipe up about standing the small matter of the actual reason people got crushed - the £#%&!ing great steel fences at the front of the pens? Take the fences out and people would have simply spilled onto the pitch, regardless of standing.
I came up with a solution years ago but did anyone listen to me? Did they £#%&!.

If the dippers are the only ones without safe standing they'll be the only ones with unsafe standing, and thus the most dangerous ground in the league. Fitting for a club whose fans have killed hundreds.

And got a special Match of the Day to celebrate how loveable and witty they are.

If my Dad had died on the Herald of Free Enterprise I wouldn't expect to be consulted on nautical safety, I'd leave it to the experts.

Oh well, as long as you had your vote, the rest of us can £#%&! off then?
She's writing to all the other clubs to guilt them into not doing it, the stupid @#%&!

Even most dippers are in favour of it but won't go against what they say, it's like Hitler all over again

"I don't think you can have any form of standing anyway without pens, cages, fences or whatever. People have a right to argue for it. That's their opinion."

£#%&!ing moron. Talking utter £#%&!ing shit. She is pissing on the memories on the police that may have served at some point at the same time as Hillsborough but under another police force and who have subsequently passed away because of natural causes

'...but hillsborough' will be the answer to this for a long while yet i suspect.

that lot will refuse to back it/actively lobby against it because otherwise it will be seen to impede their campaign for 'justice'.

At the end of the day one club and their supporters should not be able to dictate to everybody else what they do with their stadiums. There are 19 other clubs whose opinion on the matter is just as relevant and deserve to be able to have their say without having Liverpool and their demented campaign for vengeance taking centre stage all the time.

Obviously the only reasonable thing would be if standing is allowed at anfield when liverpool are winning (or away when liverpool are winning) and no where else ever as scousers are the only ones who can ever be trusted to stand responsibly. Anyone else ever standing should be browbeaten and shamed into submission.

Safe standing has to be easily converted to seated anyway

Answer = leave anfield and any away end containing them as seated and the rest of us can have an atmosphere back



The problem is everybody wants safe standing back even most Liverpool fans, aspinall has become the master of guilt tripping them into submission though
