I've done Newcastle - too high but not scary - but worst ever was the famous FA Cup win at Everton when they put half of the Bolton fans in the top (3rd) tier down the side. I literally couldnt stand up all night and when Coyle bagged the winner in E/T I had a wierd cocktail of emotions, going crazy in my seat whilst being scared of falling over the edge with hundreds of celebrating limbs everywhere. Cant believe that stand is still there, felt like a death trap to me. Are you sure the end stands are steeper? Don't look it, but I've never been up top in them.

Johnnyrotten Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 That was just my perception from sitting in there, it seemed like more of a sheer drop and I always think it looks steeper from a distance, but perspective could be altered by the width being different to the East/West. Happy to be corrected if anyone knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we were crossing the bridge between the two buildings, I literally had to crawl on my hands and knees at one point, and I nearly passed out when I saw the window cleaners outside. Pathetic. Im ok up tall buildings like the twin towers, Tokyo tower or petronas, as you can't fall off, but shit myself if up a ladder or if look over the the edge at the top of a multi storey ncp I think it's because a voice in my head says "jump off" I also did a helicopter over the grand canyon and spent most the time with my head in my hands panting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted September 18, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2020 I'm fine with heights, quite like them tbh. I shit it a bit more under water yet swimming with a great white shark off south Africa is on my bucket list - might have to leave that bit until I'm a fair way through the list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 2 good signings for the red cult today... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Gee Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Watching Bayern. Playing a different game than anyone else at the minute. Just relentless fast attacking football, even when they were 5 nil up they were rushing to take throw-ins. Sane was brilliant on his debut.

He’s quality If he stays fit he’ll do the same this year.

Saw him play for Liverpool U23s a few times at Leyland last season. He'll be in with a shout of a start at Wolves, now they've sold Docherty to spurs.
