going to the crucial Leeds match before 12 o'clock to queue up watching the lads walking on the pitch and then all the warm ups and booing every opposition player feeling the crowd grow and the atmosphere build there is no comparison to todays ticketed games people turning up 5 mins before kick off sitting down and expecting to be entertained give me the old days anytime. I saw Shankly in front of the Kop as a 13 year old he was like the Messiah we believed every thing he said it was wonderful.

I did same thing as a young teenager Walt.
Use to love the Doc ( Tommy Docherty ) and always got there an hour before the match soaking up the atmosphere, as the saying goes! The good old days.
Then our Messiah came many years later when SAF arrived.
