I remember going with my Dad in the Lowfields in the late 60s and he paid 7 and 6, I went in another (boys?) entrance lower down and paid 3 shillings. We met up on the other side of the turnstiles and we went to get our usual place near the halfway line. (I'm sure after '71 I still paid 15p to go

I seem to remember it was 6/6 in the Kop, but I don’t think they had a boys entrance. It was 5/6 in the Lowfields & 3/- for boys. This may have been a bit before decimalisation, though. When I first started going at the end of 1967 we stood in the Shed, then we progressed to the Lowfields. I had

Are you sure there's not a time lens distortion there? At Tottenham it was 3'6 too at that time (1'6 for a reserve match - the only ones I went to on my own) but that was for boys.

Sorry to contradict Graham, but it was 7s 6d to get in the kop pre decimalisation and then went up to 40p. Still robbing us though d-CUR. And while I'm here - I know Alioski isn't a left back (and we need a proper one), but leave the lad alone. He works his nads off for our team what

Yeah, I remember decimalisation, some people used it as an excuse for ripping people off. For instance prior to decimalisation it cost 3s 6d to go in the Kop and afterwards it went up to 50p! A 285% increase, robbing bastards!!! Graham White On Monday, 15 February 2021,
