One memory thats sticks in my mind is when thousands of supporters stayed behind on the pitch to listen to Humbersides commentary of Rovers game at Leigh.Their game kicked off 30 minutes after ours and if Rovers had won we'd have been Champions.IIRC Rovers where winning and somehow managed to lose in the last few minutes.

The Battle of the Boulevard!!!

I hate the red & white b@stards and always will!!!

Paul Davidson?

Great memories of the old place and some quality banter and abuse from frepennys but would we be in a postion as a club if we was still there...no.the move to the KC has benefitted the club and increased support

I miss the place a lot. if only we could have built the ground up, upgraded the place, that would've been amazing. but we're at kc now so have to try and make that a fortress

That's him!

My abiding memory of the Boulevard (standing in the "Best Stand" between the tunnel and dugouts) was the regular shouts of "I bet you a pound you miss it!" regularly shouted at opposing goal kickers...
Back in the day used to go to all A Team home games as well on a Friday night ...

I feel nostalgia for the place, but I'm happy where we are. I've got great memories of there and met some genuine legends of the game within those crumbling walls and fences.

I used to get lifted over the turnstile by Charlie Stone, Vince Farrar, Knocker and Mick Crane as a kid or taken in through the players gate.

Me and my dad were proud members of the Supporters club, but the smoke in that place nearly killed me every week. And that was just from Craney.

Anyone got video of the NZ team doing the Haka at the very last game? That was a fitting end for me.

I also remember going to the junior supporters club in the room/bar outside the airlie street end turnstiles. Id of been about ten I reckon

Were you one of the FC fans hurling bricks down on the Rovers fans? The match when spectators were moved onto the sidelines to escape the morons. That really was a derby at the Boulevard you could all be proud of.

....and here's me believing for the last 33 years that it was rovers fans who started it.

Time playing tricks with your memory.

No, but I was stood in the corner of Threepenny and Gordon St watching your lot launching them.
Then watched Rovers fans indiscriminately attacking men women and children as they attempted to traverse the steps of Anlaby Road walkover.
In fact, me and a couple of mates even had the pleasure of being assaulted by your morons on North Bridge.
And that was four hours before kickoff, but thanks for asking!

funny that, even my old man remembers that game and how it was rovers 'supporters' throwing bricks. kr fans kicked out of the threpneys on many occasions and where stood at the top throwing at will.

sounds like you've just heard about what happened and made your own story up mate

How could we reign down bricks on top of the Rovers supporters when a) Threepenny was lower than Bunkers Hill and b) we had no bricks to throw in threepenny as they were on bunkers hill coincidentally where the rovers fans where located? Perhaps you should change your name to KeiththeThickHead?
