First visit to Anfield..

I've been asking a few question about getting to Anfield etc as this sunday is my first game, word can't express how looking forward to it I am, will be on par with Istanbul as the best day/night of my life.
But I'd just like to see how everyone else found their first visit to Anfield, does it still live in the memory..how special was The Kop belting You'll Never Walk Alone out?

Just like to hear of your own personal memories and experiences if anyone cares to share

Just wait till you walk out and see the green of the pitch contrasting against the red seats its an amazing feeling the first time and I still love that moment every time I go.

Great game to get tickets for as atmosphere should be very good, you should go into the ground 45 mins or so before ko if it's your first time just to soak it all up also I like to watch the warm ups for both sides.

If your going for a drink before the park pub opposite the shankley gates is good craic loads of fans singing it gets you right up for it.

Enjoy it mate win loose or draw it's still going to be a great day for you and I know the green of the pitch contrasted against the red seats sounds like nothing much but trust me it really is a sight to behold I'm sure any fan who's been will agree

I've said to mates and family that regardless of result it will be unbelievable. I'm going early so I can have a proper walk round the staidum and ill be in there early too.

Thing im looking forward to most though has to be YNWA before the game. Genuinely haven't been looking forward to something so much in my life.

Managed to get a ticket for Arsenal the week after also..cheeky I know

My first match @Anfield was a boring 0-0 vs. Portsmouth.

Brilliant experience though.

First visit was a pre-season loss to Athletico Madrid, was a great experience. Last visit was my 18th birthday last January when we beat Man Utd in the F.A cup, was phenomonal.

My first game was against West Ham in 1984. 3-0 win Walsh got 2 and Wark got 1. I was sat in the main stand right next to the Kop. Me old man said I hardly watched the game as I was fascinated by the kop.

Enjoy mate and make sure you try the scouse pie with a bovril
