    Three more guides to come. One for away fans, one for international matches and one for stadium events like concerts.

    Very surprised that unaccompanied under 14 year olds aren’t allowed (if I read it correctly). I must have been going down the City on my own at around 8 years of age, certainly way before 14.

    It's different these days than it was in the 40's.

    I remember when the family enclosure opened late 70s I used to go with the old man.
    I think it was 25p or 50p if accompanied by an adult.
    A load of kids used to ask my old man if he'd take them in. Most were under 14.

    They omitted listing winning the 27/28 Charity Shield from our past glories. Otherwise very good.

    Odd choice of words to use ‘vomitories’ instead of for example exits but otherwise it’s a good read and very helpful

    It's very good. One thing that struck me is that the guide states the largest attendance at Ninian Park was in 1953 against Arsenal (57893). I recall being at our match against Aston Villa some years later when I thought the attendance was above 60k. Various sites on the internet confirm that the 1953 match against Arsenal was the highest attendance so presumably that is correct and I am not. Does anyone know if the 1953 figure is correct?

    Official figures:

    57,893 v Arsenal (22/04/53)

    57,510 v Swansea (27/08/49)

    52,374 v Aston Villa (16/04/60)

    Anyone know the 'unofficial' standing areas, is it still 104-108? I've seen people in 109 trying to stand but the stewards were quick to seat them, I've always stood in 108 - maybe halfway up and everyone around me stands and we've never been told to sit down (thank goodness!)

    They called them vomitories at the club since when the stadium was being built. I did a tour during construction and our guide used that term instead of exits, even when they had barely been built.

    I thought it might be related to supporters announcing they were sick of this …and leaving lol
