The weirdest lots from West Ham's Boleyn Ground auction: The team bath tub and Sam Allardyce's old printer

Sam Long9 May 2016

West Ham are set to bid farewell to the Boleyn Ground on Tuesday night when the club will bring the curtain down on their 112-year stay in E17.

Although the move into the Olympic Stadium will be made with a heavy heart by many, season tickets at the Stratford site have sold out and the Hammers could be on the cusp of a bold new era.

And it looks like no stone will be left unturned when it comes to giving fans an opportunity to claim a piece of the club's heritage courtesy of a Boleyn Ground auction before the stadium is used as the setting for a Hollywood action movie.

Supporters can buy their very own seat but they've also been given a chance to bid on a variety of unique lots from around the famous stadium, many of which would not look out of place on a die-hard fan's mantelpiece.

Iconic shirts and pieces of kit are available, along with parts of the 'John Lyall Gates', which adorn the entrance to the ground.

However, some of the items are more peculiar than others.

Here are just a few of the extraordinary pieces of memorabilia available:

  • Four West Ham crested wall tiles and a stainless steel shower fitting from the home dressing room - £50

Just in case your own bathroom needs a spruce up?

  • An Ariston white enamel bath tub with stainless steel mixer tap and white bath side panel from the home team dressing room - £20

Reports that Dimitri Payet is included are unconfirmed....

  • The Brother MFC 9060 Laser fax machine used by West Ham managers in recent tears up until the appointment of Slaven Bilic - £20

It's surprising Sam Allardyce didn't take it to Sunderland with him?

  • A Beamz 2500 bubble machine used to greet the West Ham United players and the opposing team as they enter the field of play - £20

Aren't the bubbles supposed to keep going forever? You can't send the 2500 into retirement...
