Hi Ed1and2. First time poster from South Africa. Been reading for years but felt compelled to add to the debate of being "rogerred" or being "klopped". Strangely enough Klopped in our second language in SA, means to " win ". Appropriate I think-lol. Anyway just thought I'd add that "kop" also originates from the actual war on South African soil. "Kop" means "head". Anyways some useless info from SA-lol. Cheers
{Ed002's Note - Thanks for that.}

From wpedia,
Spion Kop (or Kop for short) is a colloquial name or term for a number of terraces and stands at sports stadiums attended by hardcore fans, particularly in the United Kingdom.
Their steep nature resembles a hill near Ladysmith, South Africa, that was the scene of the Battle of Spion Kop in January 1900 during the Second Boer War.

First time poster from South Africa Ed. In our second language called "Afrikaans" klopped means -win or to beat. Sounds appropriate to me. By the way the origin of the "kop" is actually from South Africa.
