I'm almost caught in two minds ...... i was actually born on the land where COMS now stands , back in the late fifties .... so it's like a step back in time for me every time i go to home games.

But Maine Road , and it's surroundings , will always be the true 'home' for me ...... and i think , for City too!

My friend and I used to go shop for the old bill, sweets mainly, and we would get in the platt lane for free. Best job around! Best memory, the 5-1 v charlton to win promotion in "85ish. Nothin can touch that day for me.

No just curious that's all.

But the way to tell is to look underneath it.

If the seat is Black but the metalwork inside the seat is Blue its from the Kippax

If the seat is Black and the metal work inside is Black it's from the Northstand.

If the Ring (oh err Mrs) inside the actual seat (where you park your bum) is Black and not Sky Blue then it is indeed from the Northstand.

If you look closer at the Plastic underneath) you will see the stamp of Hille Seating?

God I'm a geek but the fact is I fitted them all in and my old fella was the MD of Hille Seating.

Anyway glad to be of help dude.

I prefer Eastlands by far but Maine Road was great.

It makes me smile when i see young kids going to Eastlands today and their eyes light up like mine did when i first saw Maine Road.
