      Standing up without falling over something I’ve managed since toddler years

        Basically one standing area replaces one seat and a lot of barriers. Both stop overcrowding and crushing if the crowd all moves forward as one at any stage, such as when a goal is scored.

          Safe Standing for me is not having to defend yourself against Millwall, Chelsea, Spurs and West Ham nutters rampaging their way through the Loft
          I have supported Rangers for 55 seasons, since March 1969.

              I'm only 5'8" but even I can struggle with our cramped seating. For those over 5'10" being able to stand would be a much more comfortable match day experience.
