Stadion Feijenoord

Exactly.

Twenty years ago, I went to that stadium and watched Man Utd beat Barcelona in the European Cup Winners Cup.

How times have changed.

What was the covered terrace called that ran the length of the pitch shown here on the right?

I know absolutely nothing about Football but I'll take a stab at Main Road, Manchester.  The stand was originally known as the Popular SIde but was redeveloped and named The Kippax Stand.   If I am wrong it just indicates my ignorance of the Sport!    :D

No, not Maine Road.

The Kippax was originally a covered terrace along one side of the Maine Road pitch before it became the Kippax stand.

Up to about 5 years ago, my spurious claim to fame was that I had visited almost every football ground in England and Wales.

But then there were so many new grounds built, and new teams coming in to the league.

You have got me on this one though Trojan,  it is similar to Port Vale,  but the seated area on the left makes me realise that it is not.

Hmmm, I never thought I'd get caught out on a football stadium question...  I shall keep thinking.  (whilst starving)

Why do they call it a "stand" when everyone is sitting down?     :D
