Quote: fun time frankie "Everyone of clubs that move ground start remembering there old ground as this great thing I liked the old craven park from what I remember but when I see photos of it now I just think God what a dump same as the willows the boulevard etc'"
The boulevard was a palace compared to the old CP which even had an old railway box cart in it if my memory serves me correctly. Used to be a great atmosphere in there though as it was very compact and enclosed and I well remember the day casey threw away his international captaincy there. I was also there for the final game (widnes?) and the first game at the new ground (trafford borough?).
I even pulled my boots on and played at the old place
