Indeed  I assume it may have just been ticketing issues for the colours? |

I believe one of the stands at Anfeld was like that, maybe some imitation going on (i might be wrong on either count though). Can anyone suggest why there was the large drop at the front that was only filled in circa 1991/2, I think Bristol city did similar to one of their stands more recently.

I always assumed that the North Stand seats were multi-coloured because everytime a club left its old stadium to move to a new one we'd buy up a job load of the seats from the old ground  .It explains the bins in the South stand anyway  |

The seats were different colours, because the blue and green being ends were cheaper, now of course they're all the same cost...that's progress for you.
It also shows quite clearerly how the pitch was quite a bit longer, and the goals nearer the crowd....players were fitter back then, so could cover the bigger pitch, not like todays pansies. :old:

Where is the segregation fence on the bank? I cant see it.
I dont think anyone was especially bothered what colours the seats were back then. It was just such a luxury to have seats that no one seemed to notice. Ibrox had red, green, yellow, even brown and pink seats in the 80's!
