The final goodbye

May 10th 2016 - West Ham played their last ever game at The Boleyn Ground after 112 years.
I have been going there over 40 years, and held a season ticket since 1986.

For the last game a T-Shirt was left on everyone's chair.
I had kept the T-Shirt, my final ever season ticket at the ground and the matchday programme in a bag in the loft.
Unbeknown to me my brother had managed to sneak these out of the house and for my birthday he had the 3 of them put in to a frame, along with a photo he took of me leaving the ground for the final ever time (good job he didn't zoom in as I had tears in my eyes).

A great present.
