It's hard to describe what it was like to youngsters that never experienced it. I first went on the Kop when I was 9. it was a Smokey, noisy, packed place where total strangers talked to each other, complained to each other when things went wrong and hugged each other when we scored. It was a place where crowd surges would lift you off your feet, rivers of urine ran down the terraces and we all stood as one if fans from other teams tried to enter our hallowed space. Gates of 50000 weren't unusual despite the fact that we didn't win anything. Compared to to today's sterile atmosphere and complaining keyboard warrior fans we were a unique breed. A one off. Great times sadly missed KRO
