This Tangerine Trail is the journey I have walked each match day for many years to see my home team perform and these caches are an acknowledgement from me of some of the men of Blackpool Football Club who have made the club what it is today.
You have to pay to park here, or alternatively park on one of the streets nearby (set Sat Nav to FY4 2BX).
Unfortunately whilst the Oystons still own MY club I will no longer be walking this route.
James "Jimmy" Hampson: 23 March 1906–10 January 1938
In October 1927, Jimmy joined Blackpool for a fee of £1,000 and spent eleven seasons with the Seasiders, where he remains the top goal scorer with 252 goals in 373 games. On the 10 November 1928 he scored five goals in a 7–0 victory over Reading, and then in 1929–30 season Blackpool won the Second Division championship and were promoted to the top flight for the first time with Jimmy being the top goal scorer in England with 46 strikes in 44 league and cup games. On 10 January 1938, Jimmy went out fishing with some friends off the Fleetwood coast and their 40-foot yacht collided with a trawler and he was knocked overboard and drowned. He was 31.
This journey is Muggle Mayhem as this is the main parking area for visitors to Blackpool ... be prepared :+).
Jimmy's cache is now a small tube container, in a discrete hide under the D.
