Hopman Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Re: the Cantilever stand at Hillsborough. The first cantilever in the football laehue was actually at Scunthorpe united's old ground, but it was not all down one side of the ground. Since this ground has now been redeveloped, Hillsborough's is the oldest cantilever in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
