CowboyCanary 38 Posted June 29, 2023 Many years ago, I stood in the River End. Looking at the pictures online of the stadium, with numerous improvements, I don't know which is the former River End. I would appreciate some help, please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroadstairsR 2,199 Posted June 29, 2023 (edited) The one with the river behind it. Edit: Not meant to be as smartarse as it sounds. The railway line is behind the Barclay which is opposite. Edited June 29, 2023 by BroadstairsR 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Google Bot 3,298 Posted June 29, 2023 (edited) If you're sat in the River End it has the South stand to it's right, and the smaller City stand to it's left. Dugouts are on the City stand side (left) too. Called Regency/Norwich & Peterborough stand nowadays. I still call it River though Edited June 29, 2023 by Google Bot 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kit 13 Posted June 29, 2023 If you are looking at the most up-to-date photos, it has green seats top and bottom. The Barclay has yellow at the top. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

......and Smith must score. 1,357 Posted June 29, 2023 I reckon that No.7 is Gordon Hill ? Strange seeing players standing apart as the corner comes in. No pushing, shoving or holding at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greavsy 2,423 Posted June 29, 2023 Steve Coppell was my first thought. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surfer 1,547 Posted June 30, 2023 Those were the days. Brilliant experience as a little kid, then we "graduated" to the South Stand when we were tall enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DraytonBoy 160 Posted June 30, 2023 Trying to work out the year, I would have been either to the right of Coppell half way up or in the Barclay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TIL 1010 4,784 Posted June 30, 2023 It must have been the first half as there are not any half time scores on the scoreboard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

According to that we didn’t have a goalie! However Hansbury played in midfield 🙂 Edited June 30, 2023 by Graham Paddons Beard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
