The game in days gone-bye

The Terrace - I have not stood on a terrace at a Wigan Athletic game, Was before my time however I have visited various non league grounds and felt as if I had gone back in time when football was proper and a working man's game.
( Curzon Ashton FC,Lancaster City FC,Burscough FC)


So here are a few pictures of crowds/terraces which make the game a world away from what it is nowadays and it was not that long ago if you think about it.


The famous Kop at Anfield.




















Crystal Palace fans 






















What used to be a common sight.












Maybe one day we will see the re-introduction of the Terrace with safe standing in leagues such as the Bundasleague in Germany.

We shall wait and see.
