I know Rodney has said in more than one episode he's a Chelsea fan. Also where did Grandad say he was a Palace fan and Uncle Albert say he was a Millwall fan? I know about their father and mother though! This topic is going random.

SecretSam Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Who gives a shit about West Ham moving ground? Upton Park was a dump. The whole area is a dump. Who really cares? If ManUre moved from Old Trafford, that would be a story - they've won a few things in their time. What have West Spam done? Sweet FA - oh but they did win us the World Cup. C**ts.

Aizoon Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 I've had some Interesting Times at the Boleyn Ground / Upton Park / East Ham / West Ham.

Some of us have got a bit sentimental about the East End being knocked down. Imagine AG itself being demolished? Half of it has been of course, but the crucial thing is we've remained on our historic footprint. Next to the park, same familiar surroundings etc. Total obliteration would have been extremely hard to take, doubly compounded by seeing a huge Sainsburys rising on the site instead. It wouldn't just have been emotional on the last day, the replacement buildings and tarmac would have have stood as a depressing reminder of what we'd lost forever. As someone always in favour of staying at AG I'm delighted we ended up redeveloping the old ground rather than moving, the best of all worlds imo.

There was a tear in my eye when the bulldozers moved in at Eastville - it was part of my youth. Back in the day, many used to go to both grounds Saturday on Saturday, while still supporting their own club. Young'uns won't believe this, but the football was once a cheap day out.

I think you're 10/15 years older than me Aiz. and the period of fans going regularly to both grounds was more or less over by my youth. It was very much City OR Rovers by then. I did go to Eastville occasionally apart from when City were there - The Watney Cup Final, Man. Utd, Ipswich and Southampton in the Cup, and a few others - but It was invariably on the open end with the away fans and always wanting the visitors to win. I can't pretend I had any love for Eastville so couldn't be sentimental about it's demise, but of course I do understand the general sentiment involved in familiar places of our youth changing or disappearing forever. Have a look at Bristol Then and Now sometime if you don't know it already, it's a great site, if a bit depressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My old man was City through and through, but he'd watched the occasional game there. The lyrics of the 1960s Wurzels song "Virtue Et Industrial" give us a window to that bygone age: "If the City don't win Saturday, p'raps the Rovers will...".
