Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder admits he stood on the Kop at Anfield as a young boy.
Wilder's dad is from Norris Green on Merseyside and his uncle took him on the Kop a couple of times in the 1970s as a kid during trips to see his relatives.
Wilder saw Liverpool greats Kevin Keegan and Emlyn Hughes in their pomp and remembers being carried down the Kop in an avalanche of people when the Reds scored.
I was on the Kop with my uncle Colin, he'll like this plug!" said the Sheffield United boss ahead of hosting the Reds today. He took me a couple of times.
I would have been eight or nine when we used to go for Christmas holidays and we'd have the odd trip to Anfield.
As people at the time will know and relate to you, you started halfway up the Kop, then when Liverpool scored you ended anywhere, possibly down the bottom, and my uncle would take the next 20 minutes to try and find me.
It was great to experience in my formative, young years. I am, and always will be, a Sheffield United supporter, but that part of me has always been there from my dad's side and my uncle and my auntie."
