      From BBC website tonight

      Original plans for the Kop found 
       
      The first ever plans of the famous Kop stand at Liverpool Football club have been published in a new book about the sporting history of the area.
      Researchers for the book, Played in Liverpool, claim to have spent years scouring Merseyside to uncover undiscovered sporting gems.

      A key find includes the 1932 foundation stone of the Anfield stadium, which was discovered in a dockside garage.

      The original 1905 plans for the Kop were also unearthed.

      The author of the book on Merseyside's sporting past also relays how football's original goal nets were invented by a canny Liverpool engineer.

      It also highlights the dockside location of Britain's first ever municipal swimming baths.
