Watch the atmosphere on the Kop on Saturday against Accrington Stanley , it’ll be very local and vocal as loads of dads are getting too take there kids/ nephews etc . These games we can get our kids into , I’m 50 now and I’m made up I went from 82 onwards with my grandad . It was completely different beast then Anfield in so many ways , not all good for the modern football fan granted . But the passion you get today comes from them kids who went in the early to late 80s and got learnt the education and passion of standing on the Kop and learning from the fellas who’d grown up on there in the 70s ( and the anny rd as well ). We’re a minority now but we’re a very vocal , local and passionate minority. Gareth as usual nails it , well done mate .
@@ste2442 I love to read this sort of stuff. I am a Liverpool fan but not for the city, however I think the club cannot or shouldn’t price out locals as they are the heart of the club, it’s disgusting to hear and read that it is happening but that whole debate highlighted the greed of these owners and how the do not give a two hoots about fans
the old kop was an awe inspiring heartbeat and aesthetically, (and I’ve had a season ticket in it since it was a terrace nearly 40 year kop season ticket holder so I’m the only person who’s had this seat) this kop isn’t great it never has been as a stand it was a quick fix the best thing when it was first built was the fact it had McDonald’s in it. It’s now a very underwhelming stand to look at (and I’m not talking about the fans, you now walk out from let’s say the anfield road stand and look at a kop half the size of the anfield road stand, it needs knocking down and rebuilding and I know the transport issues and being hemmed in by Walton breck road but it’s the most famous stand in the world and deserves to be more than the average build it is. I remember in the old days when it was a terrace and they called for flag days they would throw up thousands of flyers in the kop telling everyone to bring flags for the next game, I was so sad I used to stick them on my car back window lol. I love the kop my first season ticket was and I can’t guarantee I’m guessing right but around £80, I love anfield and never want to move from it but if I had one wish from it it would be a bigger better kop this one isn’t in the same league as the old terrace and now it’s the smallest visually in the ground it’s underwhelming which is the one thing it shouldn’t be. I remember the first time I went I sat in the main stand nearer the annie road end and I watched the old kop sway and bounce and knew straight away that’s where I wanted to be, and still remember my favourite ever game at anfield which was ironically the smallest crowd I’ve been in at anfield 23,000 against auxerre, my cousins who were spurs fans come to the game with me, the kop was the only stand that was full and a swear that night we scared the opposition so much they shit themselves, my cousins said they and have and still haven’t ever witnessed anything like that at a football match. In summary I love the kop and it always needs to be there but this kop needs to be rebuilt.
Ricky, The old Kop was a breeding ground for thieves & thugs which hasn’t changed today. Walk on, walk on to the nearest house, with hammer & chisel in your hand, you will never rob alone 😂
I was in the Kop that night against Auxerre, massive flag near the front it was relatively empty, freezing cold night. Was it Mike marsh and Mark Walters who scored the goals?i still have it on vhs me and my mates at the front going mad. Great noise great atmosphere, I was horse for days afterwards but in such a high. Knocked out by Genoa in the next round never mind!
@ absolutely brilliant night my favourite yep Mike marsh scored I think he played at right back that night and mark Walter’s got the winner, I was on the kop for the Genoa game as well I honestly thought the Genoa fans were one of the best set of away fans I’ve seen at anfield.
i have seen on the likes of sky sports, the pundits waxing lyrics about the passion and roar of Anfield, especially on European nights. They need to keep that, its like an extra man on the pitch. It fuels the confidence of the players. anyone knows that a confident player can produce so much more.
Whenever i speak to someone about German clubs spending less and playing better And why Englisch clubs are paying average players lot of money and the results are worse... Someone just attack me and defend the pl and the owners The same people who moan about the prices defend the owners
Is part of the problem players, staff etc are paid far too much? A wage cap could be explored. Surely the easiest way to reduce costs and overheads for a club is to pay less for players, both transfers and wages?
Q. Why is almost a third of the extended Anfield Road and other stand seats being sold for around £270-720, those seats could go to real fans and fans who have waited over 20 years for a season ticket A. Greed
There are package seats at the front of the Kenny near the Kop, £600 for a look at the European cups a can of Fanta and a sausage roll. Chinese phone watch fans lap it up.
The idea that because they aren't whining about spending money on transfers every week means they're sucking up to FSG is ridiculous. Spirit of Shankly hold the club to account more than any "FSGOUT" randomer on the Internet.
@@MS_SUPEREd_SUPPORTER_power In what exact way have they sold out? The naivety and arrogance of fans who believe that the only reason that others don't agree with your extreme ideas is that they must have been bought off is staggering.
I think the biggest problem Liverpool have out grown anfield. If you made the tickets cheaper it would be still be impossible to get a ticket if not worse . Larger stadium would be the chance to see more fans and them to consider general ticket price especially in parts of the ground. Dortmund 81,365 Bayern 75,024.
When are you going to campaign to rebuild The Kop? Make it bigger. Model it on the old Kop and the Yellow Wall. New seats young locals only unless invited. The atmosphere is terrible because there's too many tourists and old people. Lets be honest.
Absolute rubbish, the kop does need a rebuild that I 100% agree with but the local v wool debate is a load of crap peddled by people who don’t go every week, I’m not a local but I’ve had a season ticket in the kop for around 40 years and I guarantee I scream my head off as mush as anyone, I have a couple of loa]cal lads who have sat behind me for years and all they have ever done is moan to the point a[everyone moans at them, it doesn’t matter where you are from what matters is that when you are in the kop you give the team every ounce of support as you can, the local v wool argument is rubbish and I see it every week, there are good supporters and miserable supporters.
@@rickynorwood7229if your not from the inner city why are you speaking? don’t tell us about there not being wools and tourism in the kop ! It’s full Of them ! sos are mostly from the outskirts of Liverpool and out of Liverpool altogether .
@@rickynorwood7229 I'm not saying people like yourself can't keep their season tickets in the Kop. I'm saying with a bigger Kop and new seats, local fans, who are young and working class and who want to make some noise must be prioritised. And no new tickets should be issued to tourists. I don't consider you a tourist. Dortmund has exactly that policy. You're crying from a privileged position. People from the city, especially young people, CAN'T GET A TICKET TO WATCH THEIR OWN TEAM. It's a real issue and it's not wool Vs local it's younger locals being priced out the game. It's people from LIVERPOOL not able to watch their own team. Wake up.
The two stands that have not been touched by Fsg can’t because of housing and major road behind them. Because trust me Fsg would be making it bigger right away ! One thing Fsg will find money for its investment that gives them future returns.
Don’t let them turn English football into the NFL. Working class got completely priced out in the late 1980’s. Come the 2000’s the atmosphere lost all passion. To the point where the have to pipe loud music during the game to try to hype fans up. It’s synthetic.
Romantic idea, but the players want hundreds of thousands of pounds per week plus bonuses. Flak is fired at the owners and not the players. It's the players who are forcing the owners to up the ticket prices with their wage demands.
Protect the name, rebuild the stand. It's too small, I'm near 6ft at my knees are almost against the back of the person in front of me and it's a nightmare when i go with my son/ son in law who are over 6ft. Awful seating.
@kebabremover6024 too many seats for the footprint of the stand, would be better with safe standing as I think the cost of the rebuild would be much higher than the main strand, what with having to move the road behind the Kop as well.
They are in bed with fsg for free ie tickets, hot dogs, hot drinks, free doughnuts etc etc just like redmentv are and the these journalists ie lynch, Pearce, ornstein, King, reddy etc etc To spread FSG propaganda of lies and deciet and to turn fans into customers And to get fans to think spending money on the squad is a bad idea And to make fans think FSG are great owners, and they saved LFC from going bankrupt etc etc... All lies from fsg propaganda machine Most fans In the city of Liverpool believe the above lies
Time to move on. The Kop can’t be seen on tv. Magnificent fans can’t be seen. We need to expose that motivating engine….new roof will achieve this exposure and house corporate…best of both worlds.
When big money enters ,the character changes, thankyou spirit of shankly
for standing up for the fans

I was there, off camera- They edited out Paul Scholes smoking at least 5 cigarettes in the 6 1/2 minutes seen here

and what are you DOING for that?
Supporting the cause like a supporter should.
Get innnnnnnnnnnn Robbo ❤❤❤
Well in Robbo.
It should be listed as a monument.
An interesting but sad discussion - owners simply don't care.
but nor do the middle-to business class fans, who are now ticket holders

Agree with most of yous but almost all the Liverpool fan channels can't suck up to fsg enough!
Noone is sucking up. Your agenda is ridic
Agree the Anfield Wrap and Redmen have sold themselves 😢😢😢

Not really. The money men will not drop the prices even if the clubs have 100 k seats

Who's the alternative? Corrupt states? Greedy billionaires who know nothing about sport?
