UKFPU cites post-Hillsborough Taylor Report in backing ban
‘The disaster was not caused by alcohol. Full stop’

Talk of changing the law to allow fans to drink at their seat or in the stands has resurfaced after Andy Burnham, the prime minister, said the rules were outdated and discriminatory and should be scrapped.
