The home supporters' end of Anfield Stadium. "The Kop" was named after Spion Kop, a battle during the Boer War in which many Liverpool-born soldiers died, because the original mound of cinders which stood here resembled the hill on which the battle was fought. This stand became legendary in football for the atmosphere, the wit and the sheer noise that the Liverpool supporters could create during a match, before the Taylor Report meant the huge terrace had to be rebuilt as an all-seater in the early 1990s. Nevertheless, the Kop is still regarded as creating the most intense atmosphere in English football, with the many songs and massive volume that LFC fans create wherever they go.
