Stand Up Sit Down Campaign NewsQPR Blog Comment :: I am of the opinion that the stands or terraces should be brought back. This is a workable compromise as most seats fold up and leave room to stand. Safety is an issue obviously but so is crossing the road properly. I have signed the petition and joined the stand up sit down campaign. Will you Join? I think the campaign has a slim chance of success but if enough football fans demand it ~ it will be so.
