Thank you for that reference to the Popular Side - it took me back to my childhood - haven't heard the expression for years. It was of course used in reference to other grounds as well.
I do remember the Kippax having no roof. I always stood level with the halfway line, and on a wet day I would get back home like a drowned rat and receive a severe admonition for my mother, with phrases such as "you'll catch your death" etc.
Btw, you are not a FOC, you are a long-service true blue, like me, with all the mental scars no doubt that such loyalty brings with it.
