How many here....

I've stood and sat in every part of the Goldstone apart from the Lego stand.

In fact, in the 60s you could sample all terraces every game. If I remember correctly, there was a transfer fee between terraces for first team games but it was free for reserve games. We used to switch ends at half time so we were behind the goal the Albion were attacking in both halves.

I worked at National tyres opposite the west. The burger van bloke gave me his tickets for West as he would park on the forecourt. Never used them though, sold them for £3 each so I could get in the North.

Never went in the chicken run. Only went in the West seats to "welcome" Mr Bellotti to his position. Went everywhere else.

I remember years ago you could pay something like 50p and change stands at half time if you wanted

Indeed you could in the seventies as least. My father manned the gate between the east terrace and north stand.
I worked on the north turnstiles, put out the half time scores and opened the gates at the end of the game. There were always people waiting to come in to watch the last 15 minutes or so.

Arsenal cup game in 87 we were in the NE corner, Arsenal had the whole of the East stand so we were packed in there, 27,000 I think, certainly the biggest crowd I experienced at the Goldstone

Funnily enough I can picture where I was stood for that game. Middle of the northern section of the west terrace in front of the main stand. So good shout but it wan't that one!

everywhere but the lego......

That was my first ever game and I was in the NE corner too, right near the Arsenal fans which was a fairly scary experience for a nine year old as I recall. After that it was the NW terrace for a while including the Crawley FA cup game. Then on to the North stand until the end. Never did any of the others.

All of them except the Lego stand, also had always assumed that the Chicken run referred to all of the East terrace.

Originally a fenced in area on the east terrace front, half way line,later years people referred to the whole east as the chicken run!
Chicken run crew!

Yep. Stood/sat in all of the above. Most of my vivid memories come from the chicken run though such a throwing a hot cup of tea over the chap standing in front of me when a bee landed on my hand.

 

[Keith the Kipper]

I'm sorry I can't remember .

 

[Seasidesage]

All of em and played on the pitch! Check me out!

All except South Stand.

I find that astonishing given your profile pic!

 

[Insel affe]

A poor effort from me:

North Stand
South Stand
Chicken Run
West Stand (seats)

Always wanted to go into the Lego Stand in the NW corner but never had the opportunity.
