Proceeding contribution from David Leslie Taylor (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 October 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Football Matches (Standing Spectators).


Football Matches (Standing Spectators)

My hon. Friend is right that there were no specific recommendations covering the broad mass of football, but does he agree with me that one of the specific recommendations that Lord Justice Taylor did make—he could not have been clearer—was that clubs should not use the advent of all-seater stadiums to ramp up prices, yet that was blatantly ignored, which has been a contributing factor to some of the problems that we have seen in the years since? Does my hon. Friend agree that that was a specific recommendation and that it was ignored by football league clubs and others?
