Certainly some similarities in the first 4 photo's


Having spent many hours in both stands I think it's fair to say Derby's was significantly better appointed inside for players, supporters and club officials.

Isnt one of the crash barriers from under the Kop/Compton Street floodlight in the National Football Museum as an example of a Leitch barrier?

Yes there is. We were there a couple of years ago. It was tucked away at the side of one of the main rooms but it mentions Saltergate.

Yes it’s there - It’s Green and is from the corner of Compton / Cross street end. There is a big screen in front of the barrier, and it’s all about safety and football etc.

It’s on this video clip below at 2:00 - Only part of it is in the museum.

Yes and it's about 10 yards from the Jules Rimet Trophy

Just found this

Also, the museum is well worth a visit, although they have now started charging for entry - £10 for adults.
