K.O.P.

is it true the Liverpool f.c. are the grand masters of prodestant football clubs of yore and that K.O.P. Actually stands for King Over Pope..
and if so when did they give up their rangers like mentality

Guy:Incognito

:rolleyes:Does that mean every club with a kop end are similarly minded protestants?

Liverpool were the more Protestant club initially anyway but its called the Spion Kop after a Boer War Battle here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Spion_Kop

Everton on the other hand didn't sign a black player until the 80's or early 90's.

Just noticed that Linfield have one at Windsor Park as well so there might be something in it.

hmmm i think its a big conspiricy who named the battle

Doesn't anyone use google anymore?

albert-bundy

yes we use google yes the battle was called Dutch: Slag bij Spionkop; Afrikaans: Slag van Spioenkop but the english seperated the kop from spion do you thing that it was not intentional maybe use google to learn history og king against the pope

By google, I meant that this has been analysed to death.

Personally I think it's the stock ticker for Koppers Holdings Inc.
My suspicion is due to the fact that the stock graph shown here matched liverpool's season remarkably accurately.
