Liverpool''s home leg of this 1973 UEFA Cup final was put back 24 hours after torrential rain caused the match at Anfield on Wednesday 9th May to be abandoned after 27 minutes with the score at 0-0. Liverpool Secretary Peter Robinson made a quick decision that standing spectators would be admitted for just 10 pence on Thursday 10th May. Although worried that the stadium''s capacity might be tested, Robinson''s decision was spot-on because the attendance on the second evening was actually slightly lower than on the first evening.
