when was that ? didnt he have like 5 spells there as coach ?

i liked our trips there - ace place to watch RL, cracking bar under the stand and the washing on the line during the game always made me chuckle.

you just dont get things like that anymore

The old Barley Mow ground was right behind the pub (it had a quaint old wooden double decker stand). Then they moved the pitch adjacent to the pub.

Regarding past grounds visited. All those Daz mentioned except:-Crystal Palace, Griffin Park and Copthall Stadium. But I have been to :-

Station Road Swinton
Barley Mow Bramley
Crown Flatt Dewsbury
Old Wembley Various teams
Craven Cottage Fulham/London
Trafford Park Trafford Borough
Field Mill Mansfield Marksmen
Kirkby in Ashfield Mansfield Marksmen (only a few games here)
Brunton Park Carlisle
The Athletic grounds Rochdale
Wiggington Road York
Parkside Hunslet
Alt Park Huyton
Knotty Ash Liverpool City & Huyton (one for the elder statesmen)
Greyhound track Hunslet (opposite Elland Road)
Mc Cain stadium Scarborough Pirates
Owlerton Park Sheffield
Greyhound track Sheffield
Victory Park Chorley Borough

Got a Kent Invicta programme up in the loft which will name the ground, but I`m not going rooting now, but I did go.

That's it. We had lunch in Gravesend before going to Maidstone. Got stuck in traffic and the team had to change on the coach and ran straight out onto the field from the coach. No wonder we got stuffed is it. :!:
