For the uninitiated, read ladies on the blog ;), here is a brief on what is Kop Anfield.....Mote please read the part in italics carefully


Kop or Spion Kop is the name for a number of stands at football stadiums in England and abroad, named after the South African mountain Spion Kop, scene of a battle in the Second Boer War where a majority of the Liverpool Regiment had died, hence Liverpool FC calling the home section of the ground the Spion Kop in 1906 in tribute


The definition of what constitutes a Kop is subject to much conjecture. The size and location of the stand in the stadium varies, with most being located beind the goal and being occupied by its club's most vocal supporters. For example the largest terrace to be used in English football was the East Bank at Charlton Athletics stadium 'The Valley' with a capacity of approximately 50,000 stretching along the side of the pitch. This stand was not known as a Kop. However Chesterfield's stadium the 'Recreation Ground' has a Kop with a capacity of only a few thousand.


The first was at Woolwich Arsenal's Manor Ground and many English grounds have a Kop. The most famous one is at Anfield, home of Liverpool, which is the only club to give their stand the official name of 'The Kop'. Built in 1906 and named 'Spion Kop', it could hold up to 24,000 rabid 'Kopites' (supporters placed in the Kop) however it was not the largest terrace built (behind a goal) at an English ground, that honour belongs to Villa Park's old Holte Endclosely followed by the old South Bank at Molineux, both regularly holding crowds in excess of 30,000. Hillsborough's kop had become the largest roofed terrace (at that time) in Europe, with a capacity of around 25,000. The funding for this work was not only done be the club itself but through the fans, who held a number of money making ventures including a fun run.

'The Kop' is also a collective name given to the loyal supporters of Liverpool Football club.


So this is from where Mota got his name...but gd start dude :)
