AFAIK the problem with Hilsborough wasn't so much the terracing, it was the fencing. All seater stadiums make it harder to stampede but not impossible. I think terraces without fences/moats would avoid another Hillsborough. Especially with now all the technolgoy to monitor crowds etc.

I do have mixed opinions about whether they should return.
