I remember reading about some guy who took it upon himself to tidy the place up. One of the things was to paint all the perimeter walls to get rid of all the tagging, and make them pristine white again.

Within about three days the glasgow youth returned en masse and retagged the whole lot.

Nice. They managed to get over 45,000 in there for a cup game against Rangers in 1954.

:| They're redeveloping the whole ground m8s. They just won't sell tickets in that section. Not as if it's going to be totally full next season.

Terminal Boardom Guess where?



Clue: English professional club


Looks like The Shay, Halifax to me, but if thought they still played there.
