..... and I'll be standing in the Hilton Park stand, yes that's right I've named the North Stand myself:



I'm going for a look tomorrow before the entire thing has been pulled down.... it's heartbreaking.

People can say what they want about moving on but for alot of us it's been our lives for so long.

Bye, bye old friend icon_cry.gif

Drove past the ground last night, I could only see the Tommy Sale stand and the score board. Felt a bit sad myself and havent been going anywhere near as long as nearly all of you on this forum so god knows how some of you are feeling.....

I don't actually feel that sad, had some great times there but its a bit like moving to a better house, with renewed hope and looking forward to making new memories.

What a fine structure that was, particularly when bearing in mind that it was at Mather Lane for ? years before it got to HP!
