I've only ever known the old scoreboard. Going to be emotional at bristol

I think there used to be a scoreboard on the back of the Kop before the roof was put on.

Maybe. I remember them at the Leppings Lane end, but I was always facing them as I went on the Kop - before it had a roof on it, let alone seats -- when people stood to watch games.
I do remember when the first electronic scoreboard went up. Maybe mid 60s? Fans complained back then because they thought the money could have been better spent on new players. That's when we were a contending club in the old First Division.

Standing up on the Kop was insane at times, people would disappear in the wave when we'd score, then re-appear 15 minutes later missing a shoe.
Tough test of character to stand your ground and not be stampeded
my very first season ticket was the season we changed to seating, my arse was the first in that seat!! Row XX back center of Kop..
I've only ever seen that Scoreboard my entire life, it would be nice to step in to the new millennium albeit 15 years late

Looking at those hairstyles I might have even be on kop somewhere when that picture was taken. Definitely remember getting soaked a lot. The days of the 'silk' footie scarves too.

That had to have gone up in the 70s. Wasn't there in '69 when I left for Canada.
