More memories from this time
Kippax Last Stand
The first game I can remember going to was the final home fixture of the 93/94 season against Chelsea. The Kippax was to be knocked down for an all seater stand so it was an emotional day for many. I can remember having my face painted with my cousins in blue and white before the game, i’d been looking forward to it for ages. We were right down at the front of the Kippax and I remember my cousin jumping up on the wall to shake Rosler’s hand at the end of the game, I was 7 years old.

Iwas at this game too. It remains one of the saddest days of my life. Do you remember the two Chelsea fans dressed as Blues Brothers, who placed a coffin in front of the Kippax to sgnify its passing?
I was one of the last twelve guys off the Kippax that day, helping to carry the rolled up huge banner that we used to unfurl across the Kippax from time to time.
I have never seen it since. What happened to it? Any idea?
