Hi Gary, good luck and best wishes for the new channel. The Bobby Moore Stand is a great name. Back in 2010 I ran a blog with my grandson called Moore Than A Club. I wrote all the retro articles. Some were picked up and used by the BBC. This was all pre RUclips. I've supported West Ham since 1956. I was at Wembley for the European Cup Winners final. Enough reminiscing - good luck with your new venture.
Hi Gary, I don't have copies but I will check with my grandson to see if he still has them. You are more than welcome to them. I will also see if I can find them on line.
Hi Gary, my grandson has found 5 articles that may be of interest to you. Having read them again, I can't believe that I wrote them. I gave up contributing to the blog because it was impacting on my work and family time. I can appreciate why you wanted to scale things down. Let me know the best way to send the articles to you. Email would probably be the best method.
Great choice for a channel name. Your trip down memory lane made me think of sitting in the Chicken Run or West Stand with my son watching some absolute horrid ball in 2010. But it was still an amazing experience. Looking forward to the new content. Well wishes for your future endeavors.
Gary the name and the vision sounds amazing. My daughter watches C&B and will watch The Bobby Moore Stand with me. She is going to love your calming voice. We are all proud of you. Bobby Moore was my idol and it was my dad that got me into knowing about Bobby and West Ham.
@@GaryKillington My dad saw him play and even got his autograph which he gave to me. Really glad you didn't walk away completely mate. Would be strange without you on here. Can't wait for the new stuff. 3 great channels and possibly 4 now Charlie has left Hammer's Chat. All very different aswel.
@@shanemaugham7420 I really enjoy doing it so I was never gonna do that. But there are certain things that really motivate me with West Ham youtube and I'm just gonna focus on that. I think if you don't enjoy making the stuff, people can tell.
Gary,I’ve been supporting West Ham since 1975,sadly I never saw Bobby Moore play for us live,by then he’d gone off to Fulham.Your right he is iconic and undoubtedly a West Ham footballing god and legend.As for hero’s for me and maybe controversial Sir Trevor Brooking is my West Ham footballing god and Legend seeing him play many times live having met him on a number of occasions,an absolute gentleman and best midfielder to play for us and England imo.What I’m saying I guess I’d incorporate his name in a RUclips channel if I ever did one.
I've been going to Upton Park since March 1970 but when we were in our final season there, I realised that having watched matches from 3 sides of the ground I'd never been in the Bobby Moore stand. So I rectified that by getting tickets in the BM Lower for the Cup replay against Liverpool in February 2016. So your new channel name will always bring back special memories for me Gary. Best of luck with it mate 😎
That's exactly why I used the name Stephen because the exact same applies to me. The Bobby Moore Stands are where I have had a season ticket for 27 years, it was only that 4 years in the Gods that prevented a clear run of 31 years. Before the season ticket I was a North Bank resident and before that, used to stand down the front of the old West Stand before they added seats. I even had more than one season tickets for 3 years in the old place when I bought additional seats in the Chicken Run upper so my smaller kids could sit down and see the game. So I've watched lots of games from each side of the old ground.
That all sounds great to me Gary. I really like the idea of the history content, and agree about content frequency. Looking forward to it all. WHTID, COYI, Up the Hammers!
Thanks Ian, and if you think about it, by the time I've posted this it will just be a part of history. So to me history is just a constantly moving and updating topic, West Ham isn't just about today and tomorrow, there is a reason many of us are pretty obsessed by it.
Newcastle supporter here Gary and I love watching rival fans video's because I love footy ,good luck with your new channel the bobby Moore stand what a name mate brilliant ,grew up watching class players like bobby and brooking and a lad that used to play for us pop Robson can you remember him?anyway Gary good luck mate look forward to looking in at your new content keep it up mate.
Thanks mate, of course I remember Pop Robson, the man is a legend. Couldn’t settle down south so had 2 spells with us. He used to have a brilliant relationship with Trev, an instinctive finisher and took the ball early like all the best strikers do.
Good luck Gary, Great name for the channel! I had my first season ticket in the Bobby Moore stand and have so many great memories⚒️ looking forward to watching the new content 👍🏼
Then you know exactly what I’m thinking with this channel Dean. Just so many good memories down the years, but also in the new place. Masuaku scoring that really funny winner against Chelsea, Yarmalenko, so many others. We are making new memories
Good luck Gary, I look forward to viewing your new content. We are West Ham! I remember standing on a corona crate behind the goal in the north bank watching Bobby Moore, Geoff Hurst, Martin Peters etc (and Harry on the wing) as a kid. So I’m looking forward to a memory recap. 👍😀⚒⚒⚒COYI
Good luck Gary, like you, been going since 76 and in the south bank what memories, all the best of luck in your new home, can’t wait to see the New place , and new content for the channel ⚒️ COYI
Watched C&B and always enjoyed your more "measured" approach. Subscribed to the new channel and looking forward to what comes next. Will continue to watch C&B as well, who doesn't enjoy a mad rant every now and then. Best of luck Gary.
@@angelgoumal164 Thank you, it'll be a few weeks while I'm getting the studio ready but I'll make a few videos about that as well, I think people will be quite interested
Great channel name Gary,I also had a season ticket in the bobby lower at upton park and now at the LS,I am sure I will enjoy the trips down memory lane
Good luck Gary. You have me onside. I had a season ticket in Bobby Moore Stand Upton Park. Now live in Thailand so cannot go any more. I rely on you and others to keep me informed.
I for one will be looking forward to seeing what you're gonna be doing . And will be joining you on the journey. Looking forward to the chats like so many of us will be 😂😂😂.
Gary, u truly are a sensible but sensitive soul mate. U know what u want but don't wanna upset the applecart. Nick never has those problems. "Bobby More Stand" has relevance. Good luck on the new venture.
Thanks Tim, appreciate the comments. Yeah, probably over-thinking it but tbh my intent was to move off in my own direction without causing any damage to C&B, and I hope I've achieved that.
Great video and explanation welcome the Bobby Moore Stand,lower or upper mate 😂😂 Looking forward to your new channel,looks like I’m already a subscriber which is great.Exciting times ahead,hope your well and ok and you are a RUclips legend already Gary.I’m on board the Gary Express in the Bobby Moore Stand ⚒👍🏻⚒👍🏻⚒👍🏻
I'll be walking a fine line with this comment, but here goes, and with all due respect to all parties in the effort. I'm thrilled you are bringing The Bobby Moore Stand to us. On the CB, I always appreciated your tempered temper. I appreciated Nick's tiirads and joined in with them at times in the comments. But, I always looked to you for expressing the anger we all felt with a cooler head. If I may be so silly, I am looking forward to the new season and the views from the Bobby Moore Stand.
The Bobby Moore Stand ,once known as The South Bank was, before seats were put in , the end I stood in for every home match. Could get naughty in there 😅
@@FrazerJones71 the away fans used to stand at that end and your right it could get nasty in there,spurs new years day 1983 springs to mind,fucking carnage
Yeah I used to watch it close by as a kid - we stood at the south bank end of the West Stand lower, right down the front. Used to always see stuff going on over there with that line of old bill!
I use to stand in the Chicken Run, then switched to The Bobby Moore stand when it opened but found it dire so quickly switched back to the Chicken Run. Love the new name just didn't like watching a game from it 🤣
Thanks Maltese, each to their own! Btw there was 3 years when I kept my season ticket in the BML but nipped over to the Chicken Run upper because my 3 boys started going regularly and my nephew, so me and 4 youngsters. Must admit, it was down the BM end upstairs and I didn’t really like it much. Too much sitting down but on the upside, the kids who were quite small could actually see the game. Were you Chicken Run lower? I never watched a game from there.
@@GaryKillington Yes down stairs when it was standing and again when they added the seats, we were about half way between the Bobby and the half way line. Great view of the pitch and great banter from those around us. In the 70's/80's before I had a season ticket I did spent time in most other parts of the ground but the Chicken Run was and will forever be my favourite part of Upton Park ❤
Thanks Greenbadge, it feels right, feels like I was nudged towards it. Someone even told me a few Bobby Moore stories in the pub last Friday, it was like a gentle nudge in the right direction!😂
Great name for the new channel Gary, some great memories in the old stand. Looking forward to seeing the new studio set up etc. Looking forward to the content mate, if you ever need any help with graphics or anything give us a shout.
Watcha mate... 28th September 1968....West Ham 1 Sheffield Weds 1...my first game and I stood in the South Bank as a 12 yr old. Excited to hear your plans and see more good content Gary... and I can see the excitement that it brings you too... can't beat passion mate... plus no one really does much history of the club so you'll be finding a very popular niche I reckon 🙏👍 Looking forward to the stories and titbits that I will no doubtedly connect with..
The last season tbh i thought was my last . That moyes man really got under my skin . Now with a new manager and some tweaks here and there and a new channel i can get good content why not join in . Thanks mate . Im after bobby more played for west ham around 77 brooking was my idol back then but you could call it what you like your a good personality that people like and i see it doing well . COYI 'X'
Me my three best mates all lifelong Hammers all season ticket holders BML...had brilliant view of Repka having it out with the fans lol what a cult hero he was.....sadly we all agreed that we were never setting foot in the BOM and never have..we meet up for the odd away game when we can but otherwise its a dodgy stream for Sat afternoon game for us....good luck with the channel and yup i have subscribed
thanks mate, sorry to hear that. To me football has always been about those who are around me, which is why I still love the BML. The stadium was utter shit for the first 3-4 years but it has improved now I’m behind the goal again.
One happy 60 year old here Gary looking forward to the new content mate, especially remembering some fucking brilliant games at Upton Park. Good luck fella. COYI ⚒️
I was 77 - West Lower with my dad and around early to mid-80s in the North when I could take myself to football. Then me and Paul got a half season ticket just behind the dugout in the West Lower (it had seats by that point) which must have been 1992 because I know the following season we went into the BML and stayed there, apart from a 3 year holiday where I had 2 season tickets - my regular one in the BML and another in the Chicken Run upper at the Bobby Moore end because I started taking my 3 boys and my nephew. I was the babysitter for 3 seasons but couldn’t wait to get back home to my seat.
Nice one Gary, I won’t get the two channels mixed up by accident, expecting to see you and bomp I’ll get the fright of my life with Johns big head appearing😂 no offence John mate, it’s a wonderful noggin :)
Thanks Don, and I think what I was trying to say in the video is I want to respect his name and character - so while I will speak my mind and be completely transparent, I’ll try to pick the right words and avoid getting personal, that’s the most important thing - decorum.
@@GaryKillington just be you mate, I loved the Upton Park days, the club's not the same now, gave it three years at the souless bowl and gave my season ticket up, glad I did, I'm 69 now so I'd be up in the god's if I wanted a concession ticket.
@@GaryKillington I know mate but I read between the lines. You have the emotional attachment of your brother but you don’t like everything that goes with it, the OTT reactions, the negativity. You’ve seen the reaction it gets and want the distance. You don’t like the direction it’s taken. Good decision, will look forward to the content.
As a young supporter I’d like to hear more about our history so videos about upton park sounds very good gary. Will Nigel be making an appearance on the channel at all?
Really pleased to see you on here, hope you’ll learn some new things. Who I’ll make shows with hasn’t been decided yet really but I am speaking to people about it
6:42 I seem to remember, Alex Ferguson made his infamous comments after the match in April 1992 v Man U, when West Ham won 1 - 0 (despite already having been relegated). Upton Park was never as compact without the old South Bank, so, my sentiments are somewhat mixed about the Bobby Moore Stand. Much more change since then though. Good luck w 8:07 ith the channel ⚒ 7:21
Good luck with it Gary, wish you and Nick all the best and looking forward to your content in future!
Thank you, appreciate it

thanks mate, sorry to hear that. To me football has always been about those who are around me, which is why I still love the BML. The stadium was utter shit for the first 3-4 years but it has improved now I’m behind the goal again.
One happy 60 year old here Gary looking forward to the new content mate, especially remembering some fucking brilliant games at Upton Park. Good luck fella. COYI ⚒️
Superb, I’m 55 tomorrow so not far behind
Good luck fella, same 78 North Bank 👍
I was 77 - West Lower with my dad and around early to mid-80s in the North when I could take myself to football. Then me and Paul got a half season ticket just behind the dugout in the West Lower (it had seats by that point) which must have been 1992 because I know the following season we went into the BML and stayed there, apart from a 3 year holiday where I had 2 season tickets - my regular one in the BML and another in the Chicken Run upper at the Bobby Moore end because I started taking my 3 boys and my nephew. I was the babysitter for 3 seasons but couldn’t wait to get back home to my seat.
Sounds like the West Ham Chroniclecast - top man 👍
Thanks Robin
Gal ,
The old, in with a new mate! Mr. Moon has left the building. !!
He has indeed, cheers Neil 😂
Nice one Gary, I won’t get the two channels mixed up by accident, expecting to see you and bomp I’ll get the fright of my life with Johns big head appearing😂 no offence John mate, it’s a wonderful noggin :)
cheers Oscar and yes, it is a lovely big head!
Hi Garry Hope You Get The New Space Setup For The New Season Maybe You Could Give Us A Guided Tour
Yeah will only take me a week I reckon, how long can painting a room really take?
You'll not need it Gary, but I'll wish you the very best of luck anyway ☘️⚒️⚒️
Thank you Colin and I always need luck ❤
Good luck
Thanks Tony
Hi Gary, good choice of name for the channel. Bobby Moore is my West Ham hero, best player I saw, he just edges Bonzo for me.
Thanks Don, and I think what I was trying to say in the video is I want to respect his name and character - so while I will speak my mind and be completely transparent, I’ll try to pick the right words and avoid getting personal, that’s the most important thing - decorum.
@@GaryKillington just be you mate, I loved the Upton Park days, the club's not the same now, gave it three years at the souless bowl and gave my season ticket up, glad I did, I'm 69 now so I'd be up in the god's if I wanted a concession ticket.
Little dig at the others there, love it. 😂
I was really careful with my words, Dan, don’t drop my in it😂
@@GaryKillington I know mate but I read between the lines. You have the emotional attachment of your brother but you don’t like everything that goes with it, the OTT reactions, the negativity. You’ve seen the reaction it gets and want the distance. You don’t like the direction it’s taken. Good decision, will look forward to the content.
As a young supporter I’d like to hear more about our history so videos about upton park sounds very good gary. Will Nigel be making an appearance on the channel at all?
Really pleased to see you on here, hope you’ll learn some new things. Who I’ll make shows with hasn’t been decided yet really but I am speaking to people about it
6:42 I seem to remember, Alex Ferguson made his infamous comments after the match in April 1992 v Man U, when West Ham won 1 - 0 (despite already having been relegated). Upton Park was never as compact without the old South Bank, so, my sentiments are somewhat mixed about the Bobby Moore Stand. Much more change since then though. Good luck w 8:07 ith the channel ⚒ 7:21
Big up Gary my first game on my own was man city home 1977 think we won 1-0
Same year as I started going properly, Pam. Magical time to start watching football ❤
