The Cow Shed was always full on wet nights if I recall....

[Bentley Bullet]

I remember the days when there was a gap in the seating and one or two kids got in for nowt from underneath the stand.

The kop used to be much higher until around the '80s when it was vastly reduced. The ground once held 37,000 and at the end it held about 5,000!

Dead right BB. The kop apparently used to hold around 15000 when full.

I've been in the ground when there were more than 30000, against Spurs in the FA Cup 5th round.

That bar at back of pop side did a fair trade. Cameron’s strong ale served in a old school dimpled tankard with a head 3 inches over top of the glass.

I was at the Burnley League Cup and Liverpool F A Cup replay. I think that the crowds for both were given at around 25,000. I defy anybody to tell me how we could have squeezed another 12,000 in to get near our record crowd. I'm sure that Hubert Bates must have been laughing all the way to the bank.
