If you look at how much has changed over the past 20 years it is amazing.
I remember going to Highfield at the start of the season a few years ago, its some where near Knottyash, It was boiling that day. The crowd was 176 and 150 was from Rovers, the other 26 was wives and friends from Highfield.
There was 1 stand and 1 turnstyle. The girl thanked us for coming and then served us coffee at half time.
It was the poorest ground I have ever been too and that includes the Boulevard and Far Town.
Has any one got The original Trouble at the top on DVD I will make a contribution to Rovers to Aus trip if anyone can do it. Cheers
I have.
Brilliant documentary that, great feeling watching it back to see how the club rescued itself from near-oblivion.
The sight of Hull having half the East Stand and going wild winning at our place on their march to the title was hard to watch years ago when we were in such dire straits, never could have imagined how competitive we would become with them from 2007 to the present day.
Anyway a superb watch, feel we still owe a lot of thanks to the administrators for keeping us out of the hands of people like Wilby.
