then and now

[Yeats 62]

It was The Shed for me and sometimes the Skol corner on the way out,like others have said we used to switch ends at H/T against lesser teams.It was normal to see a pretty full Shed in the 1st half and it being half empty for the 2nd.A very rare treat was to do a transfer to the stand from the Arklay ST end which you paid extra for.

Another thing very different from the auld days was the opposing fans also being allowed in The Shed with a row of policemen keeping the two sets of fans apart.

You could also pay in to the Tannadice street enclosure, then at half-time you had to go upstairs in to the JK stand where the only peh shop was at that time, then just sit doon in any empty seat, enjoying the second half as a free upgrade. (depending on the score)

And yes.......... they did split the Shed with wee metal fences and polis. Thing was, yi ah went rood the back for a piss against the west wall. (you'd get lifted for that now)

I do remember they put up the metal fence but there was a time when only the boys in blue were the barrier that kept fans apart.It was probably the polis that ordered the fence to be put up

I get what you are saying about the low barriers for a wheelchair, but, when there are no chairs there it geez me the fear. A slight nudge or wobble to the right as you come back fae the loo,or the shop, and you hae a broken ankle and go erse for tit into row E scaldin' some pair buggers haid we molten Bovril.

If it stopped the drunken chunts standing in front of me I'd be all for that.
