      What would you take from the 'old' Anfield?
      Jun 07, 2007 12:23:06 am
      Wondering what everyone would take from the old Anfield if they decided to sell off souvenirs.

      I remember when Wembley went they sold pretty much everything, from squares of the grass to the toilets.

      So what would you really want as a memento?

      Personally I would LOVE to be the one who got the 'This is Anfield' sign in the players tunnel.  The ceiling on my stairs is sloped just like the players tunnel...  ;D

      I'd take the stadiums soul and set it free in the new Anfield.

      Personally, I wouldn't mind one of the clubs crests which are situated on the roofs of the stands.

      Good one mate! That's one thing I really hope we take to the new stadium. Quite significant and iconic to the Kop - Tall, strong and a lot of history:

      The giant flagpole found at Kop End was the top mast from the SS Great Eastern, one of the first ever iron ships. The club came by it when they were looking for a flagpole, and with the ship being broken up at nearby Rock Ferry, they decided to purchase it

      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anfield

      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Great_Eastern

      Come to think about it, aren't you from Rock Ferry, Glenbuck? Or is that Crazy Horse?

      I would take the atmosphere with me, especially on European nights when it's just the best place in the world to be, let's hope the new 'Anfield' will be just as good or if not better than this one, although at this moment in time I find that difficult to imagine. :-\

      Has to be the THIS IS ANFIELD sign - got a pic of me touching it when I did the tour, had it printed on to a mug and taunt all the Manc supporters in my office.......... I'd love to see their faces if I had the actual sign hanging over my desk :-)

      I'd also like the penalty spot from the Kop end - they were cutting the grass when I did the tour so got a bag full of grass cuttings pressed at home but I'd be more than happy to dig up the middle of my lawn and plant the penalty spot there!!

      When the old Kop was knocked down. Straight after the last stand versus Norwich. We drove our Transit van onto the pavement behind the Kop and went to work with crowbars on the signs. It was outside the Development office. We got their sign. I ended up with the Late entry to the Spion Kop sign. Turnstile 21. It is in my bedroom. It keeps me warm.

      About 6 seats from the Kop, and put them around a table in the garden. Perfect.

      I heard that we're taking the gates to Stanley Park with us...
      I'd just like a seat to be honest, as the 'This Is Anfield' sign is going to sell for thousands if it's auctioned off.

      The 'This Is Anfield' sign would be a fantastic momento. :) But I would settle for one of the seats.
