Cardiff players to begin standing at games
25-02-14

PREMIER League struggler Cardiff City has unveiled plans for its players to stand up during games.

In the light of last weekend’s 4-0 loss to Hull City and fan feedback, players will trial vertical positions for the rest of the season.

A club statement read: “Our research shows that many clubs already have their players standing during games and we would like to be at the forefront of that revolution.

“However the safety of our players remains our primary concern and we will still insist that they don’t compete for 50-50 balls or make sliding tackles.”

Hull exposed the weakness of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s sedentary team, running between the rows of Cardiff City deck chairs seemingly at will.

Many supporters chanted at Cardiff’s players to rise to their feet but when Wilfried Zaha did so he quickly became disoriented and had to be substituted.
 
Bony, would that be safe standing? If so the Premier League are against it but the Championship are keen to bring it In.

That being the case our players will have to undergo an intensive training programme if relegated.
