Selling our home has ruined the community businesses, no places for street vendors, like GSB promised, they would've known as tennants that was beyond their control but they just lied ... Everything is shit , the athletics barn owners everything I can't imagine going next season no matter what division. It's not enjoyable anymore, at boleyn at least we walked across the road and met up with other mates & put the world to rights At this soulless barn I just wanna go home after . Boleyn was more than just a football stadium, everything around it was the boleyn, green street barking road , the market, our favourite food places everything. It's all gone ...
I am a millwall fan yes I know we dont like each other but I never had the chance to go to the ground I felt whu shouldn't have left it's sad but hopefully the clarets and blue do a good job at the London stadium and as mentioned hopefully win the top flight. Stay strong whu.
As a Irish Boy of 6 in 1975.started following West Ham.the Ground.the famous jersey,the players and the wonderful people of the east end.2020 and still love the Irons👍
Four year gone and now it`s Nov 2020, walk past what was the West Ham ground now and you would never have known there had ever been a a famous football stadium full of history and memories.
As a Arsenal fan it's a shame that West Ham left the bolyen ground. I've been there when my team played against West Ham in the 2008/09 season and it was a great experience.
I now live in Australia, had a season ticket at West Ham for 25 years and I have tried telling the Aussies about the pride and passion at Upton Park. This video is brilliant - thanks for sharing with the world what a fantastic place Upton Park was - COYI!!
I was so glad I got the opportunity to play at Upton Park. Being a West Ham fan and walking out in my Di Canio Dr Martins top. Ok it was an empty ground, 6 a side comp. But still I got changed in home dressing room got to walk out and play. May of took a few little things just to remember the day lol Fantastic. Miss starting in Millers Well. Pop into the Central. Then into the boleyn. Great times. Gutted ill never get to take my boy to The Boleyn
Travelled many times from Germany to watch WH at Boleyn and I had Goose bumps every time I walked down from underground to Upton Park. Now its gone and West Ham will never be the same again! Porn moneybags took the soul out of the club.
All that history of the people, for the people, sold down da river Thames for a profit and a promise. We know where the profit went but where is the promise? 🤔🤔 Out in the Irish sea perhaps.
There’s a book by a American called Micheal J Sandel it’s called what money can’t buy.....this video is a perfect example of exactly what money can’t buy,the club was very much part of the community
Fantastic film.Heartbreaking at the same time.Our club has lost so much of its identity since the Boleyn was bulldozed and the club moved to Stratford.Just not the same anymore sorry to say.If this is progress you are welcome to it.Torn the heart out of West Ham and it is reflected on the pitch.Nobody fears coming to that horrible Olympic bowl,its just not home.
Absolute brilliant tribute loved Upton Park always miss the place like mad great memories in the Boleyn pub too,I wished we never left,FAREWELL BOLEYN 1904-2016.COYI
The club died the minute we left the Boleyn. Unforgivable what those 3 crooks have done to us. I have given it two seasons at the new place and I think that's it, going to break my heart not going but it's just not the same.
The reasons for this are not that west ham have moved ground, they needed more fans on a match day to compete. It’s because the owners accepted a freebie stadium that is simply not a football stadium. It was built for athletics and that has caused this discord and resulted in the match day experience no longer being the same, which is vital to the fan and in turn the club. Had west ham owners demolished Upton Park and built a football ground. This would not be happening. Bowl shaped soulless grounds do not work. Us fans need to be close to the pitch to feel involved. 4 separate stands and right next to the Pitch. That’s was english football is. I hope west ham do well regardless.
Absolutely awful what Gold, Sullivan and Karen Brady have done to your club. Money grubbing bunch of pricks, I hope you manage to get them out and get your club back with it's identity. everton fan
Watching this today brought a tear to the eye, but sold a dream 4 years ago, been a nightmare since tbh. Just not the same at the OS, hopefully if the crowd get closer to the pitch this year we can start to build an atmosphere like the old UP. Feeling good with the squad now too, so looking forward to next season. Miss the old girl though, fantastic memories, (first game 1974) 42 years with friends and family.
4 years on... if only I had a time machine. We'd still be on Green Street. We'd still be pissing it up in the Boleyn before (and after) a match. We'd still be at home.
When Trevor mentions the ground was absolutely rocking (15.46) it was 14 April 1976 when West Ham beat Eintract Frankfurt to go on to European final. That night was the best of the best nights at Upton Park. Such a tense game and such great opponents. Definitely the crowd pulled the team on to a great victory. Amazing atmosphere in the ground that night, absolutely rocking!
Great video of great times. I bet even these players of old who have everything they could ever want now wish those old days were back. Happy times indeed!!
Lovely to hear what it meant for those players to play on that pitch,it meant so much for a lot of us to go and watch it,through the good times and the bad we were privileged and at times that old ground was really rocking
I really feel for this club, I am a Newcastle United fan and it would kill me to see my beloved St James Park rasied to the ground in this quite frankly disgraceful act. These fans have had their history and traditions destroyed all in the name of greed but they cannot remove these glorious traditions from the fans hearts and minds, that's one thing modern bastard ways can ever take, God Bless all you fans
Thanks mate. I'm glad somebody else gets it. I've been over the Olympic Stadium a few times and it sucks balls compared to Upton Park. There's no soul or blood there. Let's see what the lockdown does to the league and let's hope the next season is a good one to watch! All the best bruv!
Scary place to go to with my club (Chelsea)in the 70,s love the east London spirit though and it's nice to see them doing well again although I didn't appreciate them beating us last week! Cheeky herberts!
Can't argue with that one. When I was going to Chelsea in the mid 80's I always looked forward to going to The Boleyn Ground. It was by far the best for atmosphere and the fans were like a 12th player. I don't go to Chelsea anymore because I don't like the premier league. I now go to Gillingham because I prefer old school football in League 1. If I can't make to Gillingham because I now live in Cornwall I watch Truro City. The premier league and sky have ruined football in my opinion. The Olympic Stadium will never replace the Boleyn Ground. Losing the Boleyn Ground is as bad as losing Wembley Stadium,foreign players,sky tv and all seater grounds. The working man's game is now filled with tourists, socialites, and half and half scarf wearers who know nothing about football. Like I said I used to go week in week out to watch Chelsea in the mid 80's( until the premier league started) but whatever people say West Ham have a history. It was due to the great players of the 60's that we managed to win the World Cup.
I stopped watching arsenal in 2002, as arsenal decided to leave highbury Have not seen arsenal since, and never will again Highbury will always be what arsenal was for me, standing on the north bank as a kid For me, arsenal is dead, highbury is gone So i understand what these west ham fans feel like. Highbury went and so did my love for arsenal. So i know what you guys feel like, but off course for you it was west ham, and upton park. Your new ground will never replace the old stadium. Glad i will never watch arsenal again, no matter what they do. Arsenal for me, will always be highbury, remember my first game there paying £4 as a kid to stand on north bank So i know what you west ham fans feel like
I've such fond memorys of going over West Ham on my own at the start as my friends supported other clubs then with me mate I had at senior school Steven Church and remember standing at the front in the North Bank haveing it large, chicken run going mental behind me banging the corrugated iron roof. I use to go every home game you soon see same old faces from the weeks before home games and thats when I realized I was never really alone. 35000 thousand plus were my family and even as a teenager i was welcomed in loved and respected by the Claret and Blue Army, and yeah I'm biased but West ham United are the best football team in the fucking world lol. I wouldnt change supporting them for all the tea in China. Was sad when Upton Park shut its doors let's hope that West Ham can do a Leicester in my life time on this earthly world amenx COYI let's have our best ever season 2019/20 that we have ever ever had amenx
I met Trevor Brooking and John McDowell in1971 when they were presenting medals for an East London school competition that my school was in. I then ended up boxing in the pros and looking back amazingly I ended up working in pro football as a Sports Psychologist and now I am a Pro Chess Coach. Life for me is a roller coaster!
English football will only return to what it used to be when fans are allowed to stand again in blocks that are made for it. Borussia Dortmund's stadium in Germany shows that this can also be achieved in large stadiums. Football belongs to the people.
Never forgive the owners for taking us away from Our home the greatest stadium and area in football was the day out not just the football that made it special now I won’t go and watch them ever again
Feel exactly the same as you. Without wanting to disrespect the memory of David Gold, may he r.i.p, the 3 of them made a purely business decision without giving a thought about not just the fans but the West Ham community as a whole. I find it hard to forgive 'em for that.
I remember being in the away end in 88 on last day of the season when Man City needed a win to stay in division 1. West Ham won and after the final whistle the United fans having invaded the pitch came up to the away end singing "you'll be back in 89" Great end to the season although City went down. Oh the days if proper football!
Please, anybody put subtitles , unless in english language. I like hammers cuz i'm iron maiden fan and know steve harris and other members grew up in the east end. West ham is not the best team, but has a the best supports...may be? Grettings from Argentina
I'm a Millwall fan who pleaded with the fans to fight this move and you had something very special. Everything I said b4 this ill-fated venture has come true apart from THe Relegation I said would come within 5 years when you play on neutral ground ( which many Away teams and fans love) and then you are Away the next week. Does not sound like a recipe for succes to me...
When football becomes a factory, emotions and the people don’t count anymore but money and profitt do. But today in 2021 guys we are talking business !! Maybe a plaster on the wound……
YES West Ham may have lost their traditional spiritual Home and Soul and become a Corporate Club well away from their heartland and yes they are not welcome where they are and now play in a sanitized, soulless and (relatively ) silent stadium and are no longer a Community Club. Yes those Pie and Mash and Pubs, Clubs and Markets epitomizing their old heartland are not around at this Rented Athletics Track and Yes the fans are well away from the action now and no longer influencing all parties and yes West Ham have struggled every season since moving and yes they are burdened with this for another 98 years but its PROGRESS INNIT !! INNIT ???????
Thanks for killing our club modern football. Soon all the real old school clubs in England will be destroyed e.g. Leeds Millwall Portsmouth Everton Luton etc.
It would will always be our home no matter what and My first game was 1972 against Manchester United and I was sitting in the Front Row of the Chicken Run
@@Jabber-ig3iw the 1970 Jewelry scandal went ageist him then he passed away 1993 before it became more common for sportsmen/women getting public awards
Agree all a out money though nowadays and cant wait for those tory three to leave. Well 2 now actually . Great vidio and times move on as most clubs move to new premier league stadiums that can hold more people with proper toilets too unlike boleyn upton park had with 35k plus the few k more that went through together in the turnstiles lol😂 Loved it but life goes on and moves on . Love h shame its still sticky with bonzo but thats life again. When you think greenwood and lyall now our best ever coaches with no money and the p---k moyes we have at present wow spending 400mill in his reign and nearly relegated us and winning a mickey mouse intertoto although nice cup that i could have done with those players, and played a entertaining game not boring the pants off fans. We were lucky too against the one decent side fiorontina.
I understand modern business greed corporate thinking with big grounds BUT u lose atmosphere, think of some of the intimidating smaller grounds where fans are right up close! Players hate playing at some grounds it's intimidating, but not now at big modern shit stadiums we see
I still remember David Gold on talk sport having a lot of air time saying he's a fan and when he was a kid in the chicken run blah blah, shortly after they moved into the taxpayers stadium. I feel for all you hammers fans.
Great days1964 v Sheffield Wednesday my first game..❤ great players Ron greenwood greatest manager ever...harry redknapp what a star player and manager quality ..THE WESTHAM WAY
What an amazing video. Unless you are one of us you will never understand how amazing the boleyn ground is. One of a kind. Never forgotten.
I actually loved coming to the Boleyn more than Arsenal. Was like a proper football day out.
Selling our home has ruined the community businesses, no places for street vendors, like GSB promised, they would've known as tennants that was beyond their control but they just lied ...
Everything is shit , the athletics barn owners everything
I can't imagine going next season no matter what division.
It's not enjoyable anymore, at boleyn at least we walked across the road and met up with other mates & put the world to rights
At this soulless barn I just wanna go home after .
Boleyn was more than just a football stadium, everything around it was the boleyn, green street barking road , the market, our favourite food places everything.
It's all gone ...
The noise... oh the noise !!!
I am a millwall fan yes I know we dont like each other but I never had the chance to go to the ground I felt whu shouldn't have left it's sad but hopefully the clarets and blue do a good job at the London stadium and as mentioned hopefully win the top flight. Stay strong whu.
Cheers for that mr millwall. Think you can understand because the same thing happened to you in the 90s when you moved to the New Den.
As a Irish Boy of 6 in 1975.started following West Ham.the Ground.the famous jersey,the players and the wonderful people of the east end.2020 and still love the Irons👍
Grew up a Gooner, but loved visiting the Boleyn Ground! Probably my favourite ground to visit! Great fans!
I’m not a West Ham fan, but my grandad spent 11 years playing for them, loving this.

Hi Ian
You are right. When and why did you emigrate to Oz, please?
Words can't describe how much I miss it....I Hate the 3 scumbags who destroyed our Home.I Hate them so much.
I was so glad I got the opportunity to play at Upton Park.
Being a West Ham fan and walking out in my Di Canio Dr Martins top. Ok it was an empty ground, 6 a side comp. But still I got changed in home dressing room got to walk out and play.
May of took a few little things just to remember the day lol
Fantastic.

@@audialiastt2601 Yes the Bobby Moore stand the Chicken Run the old foundry works which gave the Hammers nickname it's all gone.
What a fantastic tribute. Superb effort. Thank you BT Sport.
Boleyn R.I.P! No one can ever take the memories away (from an ex South-Bank resident1971-1986)
Amazing tears in my eyes!! Boleyn for ever in my heart!!

You fans have been sold down river so glad Liverpool never left anfield do feel for you tho .
tbf their fans forget they were in £100,000,000 worth of debt before they took over (just like the anti FSG lot )

old school football how much better it was than today all for the money no soul in todays game
Very moving tribute. You know a football ground is so rich in spirit and atmosphere when its demolition is heart-breaking.
it has not pushed the club forward it's broke it's heart boleyn forever
Absolutely awful what Gold, Sullivan and Karen Brady have done to your club. Money grubbing bunch of pricks, I hope you manage to get them out and get your club back with it's identity.

cribbe We’ve still not managed to do that yet...
this is when football was football

I know jealousy is a terrible thing.
we lost our ground ,now we are homeless and playing our home games at birmingham, hope it don,t happen to west ham. sky blues forever
Yeah look what they did to Highfield Road shocking really all for a few broken promises & a fatter bank balance. Feel for you guys.
Upton Park was West Ham. You cannot overstate just how much the move has broken this club. Arguably killed it

Have not seen arsenal since, and never will again
Highbury will always be what arsenal was for me, standing on the north bank as a kid
For me, arsenal is dead, highbury is gone
So i understand what these west ham fans feel like. Highbury went and so did my love for arsenal.
So i know what you guys feel like, but off course for you it was west ham, and upton park.
Your new ground will never replace the old stadium.
Glad i will never watch arsenal again, no matter what they do.
Arsenal for me, will always be highbury, remember my first game there paying £4 as a kid to stand on north bank

Lovely video - some great memories.
Upton Park was the best the Olympic stadium can’t take that from us
Being able to, I've never had the urge to want go to watch them at their pitch in Stratford.
The day that West Ham died
o'farrell seems a right charming ol man.
@Mark Gable yes he was the one and only.
@Neil Sheridan looking at his stats he must have joined West Ham just as my grandad left.
Thank you very much, globalism.
Sir Trev, Sir Bobby, Sir Geoff, Sir Martin, Poalo, Bonzo, Big Al, Ludoooo....etc etc just legends..
Even though we’re at the new stadium, and to progress we had to move, the Boleyn is always in our blood and will never be forgotten
3 years on and we’re still not the same
..and never will be.
Moving to big grounds is a backward step. The crowd need to be close.
I've such fond memorys of going over West Ham on my own at the start as my friends supported other clubs then with me mate I had at senior school Steven Church and remember standing at the front in the North Bank haveing it large, chicken run going mental behind me banging the corrugated iron roof.

Thanks for killing our club modern football. Soon all the real old school clubs in England will be destroyed e.g. Leeds Millwall Portsmouth Everton Luton etc.
Boleyn was a true English stadium
Look at the great players we've had WESTHAM ARE MA❤❤
It would will always be our home no matter what and My first game was 1972 against Manchester United and I was sitting in the Front Row of the Chicken Run
1967...Man Utd won 6-1...
How didn’t Bobby Moore get knighted?
One of the biggest tragedies in football is the way he was treated in the years after the World Cup win and his retirement.

Agree all a out money though nowadays and cant wait for those tory three to leave. Well 2 now actually . Great vidio and times move on as most clubs move to new premier league stadiums that can hold more people with proper toilets too unlike boleyn upton park had with 35k plus the few k more that went through together in the turnstiles lol😂 Loved it but life goes on and moves on . Love h shame its still sticky with bonzo but thats life again. When you think greenwood and lyall now our best ever coaches with no money and the p---k moyes we have at present wow spending 400mill in his reign and nearly relegated us and winning a mickey mouse intertoto although nice cup that i could have done with those players, and played a entertaining game not boring the pants off fans. We were lucky too against the one decent side fiorontina.
should never have moved really
You're damm right we shouldn't.
We wud spank em every time in the 80s.. Dead scary
That to§§er Ferdinand couldnt leave quick enough
Clide Best. Must have taken stick.
thanks
I understand modern business greed corporate thinking with big grounds BUT u lose atmosphere, think of some of the intimidating smaller grounds where fans are right up close! Players hate playing at some grounds it's intimidating, but not now at big modern shit stadiums we see
I hope Feijenoord Rotterdam pays attention to this.
West Ham gave up their Club like they gave up their heritage. The new MkDONS.
I still remember David Gold on talk sport having a lot of air time saying he's a fan and when he was a kid in the chicken run blah blah, shortly after they moved into the taxpayers stadium. I feel for all you hammers fans.
