Introduction of Safe Standing Areas in Premier League Grounds
Look at any premier league match and you will see a large volume of people currently standing in seated areas unsafely, Away Supporters DO NOT SIT DOWN!!, we call upon our government to introduce "Safe Standing" areas within English Football Grounds to allow supporters a safe area to stand.
Safe Standing is the common sense approach to what is a big issue currently in English Football Stadiums, safe standing areas would create the match day experience like minded supporters wish to have, currently supporters stand in seated areas which become extremely dangerous when a team scores a goal as there is no barrier to stop the surge of people standing, with safe standing supporters can stand safely, as models at football clubs in Europe have proven.
It is a no-brainer.
