I have mentioned it previously on here that a couple of years ago now, I took a few photos at Wilderspool Stadium.

Well last night i found the cd they were on after worrying i lost them in a Hard Drive failure.

Given me an incentive to open up a Flickr account but as it's a new account it won't let me upload them all (for now) so below is a link to the pics on the good ole' myspace. Need resizing on here.

ps. Thankfully due to the Ground being used more, most of the weeds and jungle is no longer at the Stadium now. However as i said, there from a while ago. Was just learning how to use camera so kept it on Auto too, nothing fancy :oops:

Some fantastic pics there and on the Myspace link.

I particularly liked the ones of the tunnel and changing rooms. It's somewhere I never managed to get to see being a fan who didn't have Sky back then.

It's in a bit of a state but I still have very fond memories of being in the Fletch on a match day!

Yeah the prices were cheaper back then, but what is it now? £16 for the south stand for an Adult? You can't really grumble at that when you compare the two stadiums.

What you can grumble at is paying £18 to go to Saints and thats in almost as poor state of repair as Wilderspool is now!!

Its £15 if you buy in advance, and Knowsley Road may have seen better days but it does have atmosphere and history.
