Things you don't see at/in football these days

[jevs]

People smoking pipes....the smell of pipe tobacco takes me straight back to the mid 70's at the Goldstone

Flat caps, stands with roofs and strikers ploughing the goalie into the net.

I used to really enjoy going to really shit grounds. My favourites were The Shay at Halifax, Bloomfield Road (a very large shit ground), Molineux before they did it up, Burnden Park (esp the supermarket in the end and the pitch that was above the level of the terraces) and Edgeley Park in Stockport. Alas most have been sanitised and 'refurbished' to be sterile and characterless.

Home fans, clapping opposition goals like in the 50s/60s.
