I still see people who stood near me on the Kippax. Some who I never spoke to. But would recognise anywhere. Saw one lady in the Green Man who used to stand a bugs dick away from me on the Kippax.

if those days had stayed and coms was never built we would probably be fucked by now having a ground beyond repair,no investment nothing,we may have even gone bust

Many a happy hour spent, but it's gone never to return, time and tide wait for no fan!
I kind of think it was "of it's day"

Maine Road was never the same after they replaced the Kippax Stand. I stopped going for a few years because I couldn't stand up any more. Pissed me right off. Only went to a handful of games there after that, it made me too sad.
I was actually really glad when we moved to the bright, shiny and new Eastlands, because it was a fresh start... It reminded me of the scene in One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest where Chief puts the lobotomised McMurphy out of his misery... Sad but it was for the best.
