i think that there is an arguement to sugest that the Holte would not have remained as a standing terrace only, The Stretford end went to seating the upper tier long before all seaters were introduced. I do think that a tier of standing would work though, If it works in Germany then it would work here.

As Im a bit older now I must say that I probably prefer my seat.
As it is when I get home from the game, I usually want to sit down and rest (sometimes in a darkened room, alone, with the door locked).
