Then from below?

There wasn't anything below the pens.

Pens 1 and 2. only pen 1 was away fans.

Not always. Sometimes 2 was empty, but for bigger games it was used for an away allocation. I remember Derby County in the Milk (league) Cup in 1986 I think as one example. The game that ended in the riot in Highfields.

I was always in the upper tier of the south stand, and the stand I mistakenly thought was the kop was the one with the boxes above it on the opposite end. Brilliant football stadium anyway, there's not many like it remaining.

During the eighties in particular, the fighting up in the Double Decker was horrendous. Most of the Main Stand used to watch that instead of what was happening on the pitch. Then from below you could hear the constant clatter of sharpened coins against the mesh separating pen 2 and 3. The acoustics in the Kop were brilliant though...one of the main reasons Filbert Street was so loud.

 and if I remember correctly the kop was a small stand too so I assumed they were both situated on streets behind houses.

That's what the West Stand is for.

To those moaning at UFS

On the subject of UFS v the club I think most of the moans about the club hijacking the idea are from non UFS posters.

It instantly reminds me of ALF and that Tony bloke who founded Blue Tuesday when Brian Little walked out.
