I think I may have used the incorrect terminology Phuzzy.
I actually mean standing terracing as per Wire, Saints, Salford.
Personally I prefer to stand whilst watching a game. For me it adds to the atmosphere and I can avoid the perpetual standing up and sit down whilst people go past my seat to go to the bar and/or toilets.
I know the likelihood of getting standing terracing is nil but the owd fart in me still pines for that experience for an home game.

Pat Richards appearing from the fog for a try down the Wigan end will never be forgotten. It was like he'd stepped out of the doors on stars in their eyes.

Fantastic evening, that.
Ridiculous but a bloody great memory! When I tell my kids about that night, they'll simply not believe that A) it was played or B) we didn't just leave & go home!

I remember handing my cash over at the turnstile just thinking 'what am I doing' but thought maybe they knew something we didn't and it would magically clear up. Just a surreal night but as you say, it's one to look back on and laugh.
