myol'man Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Saturday April 26th, home to Crewe. Last ever game before the East End is torn down, surely City will open up the whole end to home fans for one last time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 I think this will be the 3rd time I've said 'goodbye' to the EastEnd. Granted, one of those might have been the 'we want standing up' game, but all the same, it's easier to kill a zombie than it is to redevelop that stand.

Last ever game before the East End is torn down, surely City will open up the whole end to home fans for one last time? The East End bid farewell, when the seats replaced terracing. What we've had since is merely a pale shadow of it's former glories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUTOR Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 This time it will be a proper goodbye, yes there is no terracing anymore but the place still feels unique and like it's about to collapse and crush every living person in there, even with all the changes it still feels like a special place to be. However it is now getting all done up, knocked down, rebuilt and from what I can tell it will be full of families relocating from the Atyeo. A proper bloody farewell is needed. Don't come in the eastend on the final day if you're not prepared to go f*cking bonkers for 90 odd minutes. At least that's the way I hope it'll be! I'm not liking the thought of looking out at an empty eastend as I go down those steps for the last time, to me it's not just a stand, I grew up in the place!

Midlands Robin Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Would be nice if the club auctioned off / sold bits of the east end to raise a bit of money for a charity. I'd buy a seat as a memory. That's if all the fans in the stand don't take one home after the final whistle Saw my first game from EE in 1992 against Sunderland. Missed it being all terrace by a couple of years due to being a late starter down the Gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK0wnag3 Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Think I might stage a stand-in protest. If you want to knock it down, you'll have to knock me down. On second thoughts, that might encourage the bulldozers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciderup Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 I'm with Tiz. I will be gutted when she's levelled. As a nipper I'm the 70s the EE was an awesome sight from the safety of the old enclosure with my dad. I know she had to go now but I might shed a tear when she's flattened. FORZA THE MIGHTY EAST END. Never forgotten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TV Tom Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Personally i would enter the EE again for the first time for 25 years, i grew up in there in the 70s & it gave me the passion i have for BCFC today, might even get my old silk scarf out & a few of those horrible paper toilet rolls you used to get in the public toilets to throw at the opposing keeper! certainly hope it will be a carnival atmosphere in there, i'm sure there might even be a few tears in remembrance of the many friends who used to stand & protect the EE in the "good old days". Must go, i'm choking up already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 However it is now getting all done up, knocked down, rebuilt and from what I can tell it will be full of families relocating from the Atyeo. For me this is why the Away support should be shoved in the side of the Williams in the new AG instead of the Atyeo. Otherwise the new EE might well be a conflict between old EastEnders and displaced Atyeo supporters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
