Hard to imagine a time when fans could not only take bottles of booze on the terrace but be trusted not to throw them at opposition players and fans.

I am afraid in the 1960's our fans seemed to be accused of this throwing bottles on the pitch, ironically at West Ham away, other fans followed this dangerous practice, and paper cups with beer in were the call of that era!
 
Health and safety hey - Look at this at Millwall unbelievable!lollol

I remember climbing three quarters of the way up a flood light pylon at Hampden Park, circa 1978, at a Scotland v Wales home international match. Half gone on cheap wine I wanted to have the best view in the ground, the police just waited at the bottom on me coming down at the end of the game, and to my surprise (maybe because I was under sixteen)just gave me a ticking off and sent me on my way. Watched the whole second half from about a hundred feet up on a sunny night, although there was quite a heavy breeze blowing. The thought of trying something like that now would make me boke, but at the time I didn't have a nerve in my body and loved every minute of it. Football back then was a different world away from today. Aahh the memories of yesteryear.
 

there was a good one at Southampton, might be on you tube somewhere it was on motd , cant recall if it was a cup game or last game of the season, Everton fans all over the pitch at the end.

Fifth Round FA Cup Southampton Away - 1981? - we drew and brought them back to Goodison under the floodlights. Kevin Richardson scored a worldy late in the game to secure a 1-0 win in front of what was a c.45-48k crowd but which seemed more like 60,000 and caused an absolute uproar amongst the disbelieving crowd when the attendance was officially announced.
