At this juncture everybody stands up and chant "It's out of play - we're standing up".
Truly, the lunatics have taken over the asylum in our modern game!

This is another perfect example of New Stadia (The plural of which should be Stadiums in the Lancs. Dictionary) not catering for traditional fans. Whats wrong with these people, I was taken as a child to naerby Turf Moor with 30, 000 + people watching 1st division football and not a seat in sight. Nobody Died !
One good thing, it`s got Donny fans shouting, when we went there in the paintpot the cheering came from the tannoy.
