Hi, yes I think that may have been the one my grandad was describing. I’ll double check with him and let you know. It would be great to see a pic of you can find one.
I am from hillsborough originally Chris and spent most days up and down leppings lane. Which shop was it you thought might have had a KOMO there? |

Steph , if you look in the signs in situ thread,there is an image posted by Sign Seeker at 07:33 on 9th April headed Sheffield 1979 ish.The second image shows a shop on the right which was L.Quinns.Immediately to the right of this was the turnstiles to the Leppings Lane entrances to SWFC. As far as I can remember,the Komo was on the shops on the same side going away from the ground. But I suspect it was well before your time!! |
