It was an evocative sight for football fans up and down the country – supporters at Stamford Bridge and Old Trafford legally standing to cheer on their teams for the first time in 27 years.
Ahead of the proposed rollout of safe standing next season, we’ll be asking the man in charge of the project about its benefits and potential pitfalls.
We’ll hear from two parents of Hillsborough victims who are split on the return of standing areas – and from a Borussia Dortmund fan who has spent 40 years supporting his team from the largest standing terrace in Europe.
Panel: Sarah Mulkerrins, Dan Roan, Nesta McGregor, Laura Scott
Producer: Sam Sheringham
