RichardB Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Why was The Kop that shape, it unlikely given the surrounding area that it was in any way natural. Is the shape a reference to somewhere? It must have been easier to build a "normal" shape ... hopefully at least once this coming season the ground will be reasonably full - The Lane too ... Maps from before the building of both grounds politely requested ... obviously Happier days I guess W/E. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichardB Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Hoping to find a picture of the Hillsborough Kop showing the strange shape, so definately pre-roof and hopefully pre-scoreboard; more interested in the shape of that end of the ground than the crowd for this one; if anyone can help please.
