Diego_Sideburns Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Two B.A.L.L.S. by car and in the Bedfordshire Yeoman pub on Dallow Road near to the ground before the game. BURTON AREA LOYAL LATICS' SUPPORTERS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsslatic Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 I'm going for my first time, can someone confirm or dispel stories I've heard... 1. The one way system is an absolute nightmare. 2. The away turnstile is in someone's house. 3. You have to go through their back garden to get into the ground. 4. It is physically impossible to sit down (not that I'd want to) as you get approximately 30 cm leg room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is physically impossible to sit down (not that I'd want to) as you get approximately 30 cm leg room. 1. I remember getting nearly lost on Barlow's coach once (not a rare occurence!) 2. Well, you enter an alleyway between two terraced houses. 3. Away turnstles are at the end of the said alleyway. 4. Yes, legroom is tight but not impossibly so - perhaps similar to behind the director's box on our main stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_ragg1984 Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 quite possibly the worst football ground in England. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boundaryblue80 Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 (edited) Not forgetting the dirtiest seats I've ever sat in at a football ground! Was the 1st game of the new season....they couldn't be bothered to clean them down for the start of it.

Bring Back Ronnie Moore Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Haining scored on that day iirc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boundaryblue80 Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Haining scored on that day iirc. Indeed he did...which I missed due to an accident on the motorway that day. Scorcher it was too. All that way to miss the first 5 minutes and our goal, to see them do us. Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeslover Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Three minute walk to station, three minute train journey, change train, get off train. Easy peasy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyoafc Posted March 9, 2008 Author Share Posted March 9, 2008 Train is 27 quid from mills hill and official club coaches are 20 quid. I know that people have previously flied down to Luton but does anyone know of any websites where I could get a cheap flight down from?

Even Blackpool bothered to clean the seats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.O.A.M Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 [/size] Horrible, horrible place. Agreed, possibly one of the rankest places in England. Can't wait to see the loo roll on sale in the street again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Fans at Luton - similar to the decent Latics mob - Bedfordshire Yeoman before the game I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, only ground I got lost travelling too, ended up miles out, picking up a random Luton fan who gave us directions to parking in Asda near the ground. 2. Row of terraced house and one knocked through to form the entrance, quite smart actually 3. Yep and up a shed load of rusty stairs How this ground even has a safety certificate I'll never know.
