West Ham icons look back at 112-year history of Boleyn Ground in Sky Sports documentary

West Ham's 112-year association with the Boleyn Ground ends on Tuesday and five Hammers legends share their memories of the famous stadium

As West Ham bid farewell to Boleyn Ground, Sky Sports looks back at the iconic stadium's 112-year history with the help of five Hammers icons in a new documentary to be shown at 6pm on Tuesday on Sky Sports 1 HD.

With 2,391 appearances, 246 goals, seven Hammer of the Year awards and 10 major honours or promotions between them, West Ham legends Billy Bonds, Alan Devonshire, Phil Parkes, Tony Gale and Tony Cottee have more memories than most of the Boleyn Ground.

They gathered together in the Greenwood and Lyall lounge at the famous old ground to reminisce on their combined 69 years as West Ham players.

The quintet touch on their experiences as fans before and after they donned the famous claret and blue shirt - or stepped into the dug-out, in the case of Bonds.

Among tales of Bobby Moore and Trevor Brooking playing with beer barrels for goal posts, block tackles, naps for warm-ups, European comebacks and the legendary 'chicken run', they also look forward to the Hammers' future at their new home in Stratford at the Olympic Stadium.
