On This Day: Farewell Boothferry Park!

It opened with a 0-0 draw and closed with a 1-0 defeat. Yet for nearly 60 years in between it provided the setting for drama, despair and delight - and a host of memories which will never fade - on this day in 2002, the Tigers played their final game at the place that they had called home for over half a century.

Boothferry Park - the home of football in Hull from 1946 to 2002. The Kempton stand, Boothferry Halt, six flodlights, and one of the best playing surfaces in the country. It had it all.
