How do you feel now looking back at Boothferry Park? Do you miss it? I always found it a bit of a hole, in that crappy supermarket end, but then I find the KC very sterile and bland. Not sure if I’d want to watch football there every week.
Like many grounds it was well past its best, and a reminder of what could have been. At one time it was on the shortlist for the 1966 World Cup, had its own large covered gym, four covered stands three with seats in them, train halt and state of the art floodlights. All in all though the best thing that happened was the new ground, which is now also showing its age and is in need of overdue maintenance. Perhaps the new owner will stump up, after all this week he bought a 20 million quid yacht, cost of living crisis eh?! I actually prefer the MKM and am still with the same old gits like myself from Boothferry Park!
Trivia question, what was the only top flight league match to be played at Boothferry Park?
