I remeber it being built behind the Canton Stand in the mid to late sixties.

I was too young to go in in those days except a couple of times when they would show screenings of old matches.

None of yoir 65 inch TV screens in those daysbjut a projector and portable screen

I remember seeing Real Madrid V Eintracht Frankfurt there. It isna shame tghe club let it run down to an extent where it had to be demolished. When was that?

It accidentally caught fire during a time, when a director who is taking the club to court, was to the forefront

I went there before just about every home game in the early 70s. Consumed rather too much Guiness and Bacardi & Coke! Also attended a few Player of the Year functions at the club. On on such occasion one of the players mistakenly believed that I had insulted his wife and had me by the throat before his missus corrected him.

Will Smith would have missed your neck and followed through with his hand over your shoulder
