Cant remember prices ,there was a few of us and we had this technique, One goes through the turnstiles and opens his legs ,one of the boys crawls through under the radar of the turnstile guy, and pegs it into the kip. And we meet up near the corner flag between the kip and North Stand. No one ever got caught, Great days .BOGOF, springs to mind.fbloke said:Can anyone remember the price that was painted above the turnstyles for their first/last visit?

The massive steel, sky blue doors.

Think it was about £8 in 1994, put never paid full in the real Kippax, just shaved.

The floodlights. Always new i was home when i seen them.
Did anyone duck when they went into the Kippax though the tunnels?
You would see a lot of people do it, even though most has a a foot to spare.
The tunnel was the best bit, especially if you were late due to a big que and the crowd was going mad; it summed up the anticipation.

A pokey room to which the great and good, and less so all had to get their match tickets.
What a way to treat the likes of Bobby Moore eh!
Oh aye, go over and ask for tickets for a Mr Brown but make a note of a name on one of the envelopes as the woman flicked through them. Leave empty handed but send a mate over to ask for the tickets for the name you clocked. Simple but effective.
