Any old timers remember the paddock? It was a thin strip standing area pitchsde of the main stand. It was a great view and you could stand near the manager. Used to be my favourite spot plus you were safe in the days of hooliganism unless you stood near the anny road in which case you took your life in your hands. It never gets a mention in Liverpool folklore but for me happy memories when I was about 14 and went to the games in the days when fights would break out in the crowd and I wanted to be safe. When I got older went in the kop but I always loved the paddock I saw the 5 nil defeat of forest there in 88. One of the last years before it went all seater and became absorbed into the main stand.
