Come one time to Germany and then compare again the atmosphere with England after you were in a standing section...
The Bundesliga is generally known for good atmospheres though isn't it?
I just don't believe standing makes that much of a difference, maybe I missed out on the terraces in the 80s etc.
For me, as someone who stood in terraces as a kid, its not about the standing, there is a whole culture of positioning that will maximise the atmosphere in a way standing will not.Some lower league clubs don't have allocated seating in their seat stands, and the atmosphere is much better because of it.
