O/T anyone ever use this?

I of course knew of its existence, but it was long gone by the time I started going to City. Must have been a great experience.


Taken from a facebook page "lost football grounds of England"

 

Bit of a daft question given that it only closed in the mid 80s and there are some right old clochards on this forum.

Although I am assuming you’re only about 12 yourself so fair play I suppose.

 

I think 1 of the oldtimers invented that............. (mentioning no names)

 

What an odd assumption to make. If it closed mid eighties, say 85 for arguments sake, that would be 28 years ago. In my opinion, you shouldn't really take a child below 7 or 8 to a football match. That does depend on the child of course. So if my first game was 86 (lets play it safe) and I was 7, that would make me about 35. Not too far off my actual age as a matter of fact.

Or were you just trying to be a ****?

 

I doubt that many people from Hull ever got to ride on the train, it was in the general fleet of LNER/ BR and was just a name plated engine. It was taken out of service in 1960.

 

To be fair you sounded much younger.

 

my moneys on that

 

Is this article about the train called Hull City or the station at Boothferry Park?

 

Good Question!

 

Come now, be more generous; he doesn't have to try.
