The top right hand corner of the kop is where all the Pig fans were stood. They had been mouthing since Thursday morning that they were coming to gloat at our relegation and take the kop.

As usual they stood right at the highest peak no where near the middle and made no attempt to take the kop

strangely enough have you evercome across the story  about the real gypsy called Rab Howell who played for United - born in a caravan at Wincobank and played for England - not many can say that!

Hockey signed for United in 1971, so wouldn't have played in that game. I think the blunt in the photo is John Tudor.
