Hopefully on Saturday Morecambe will make all the right passes … just not necessarily in the right order.
To bring the Saddlers some much needed sunshine

I got me and my 9 year old one last night and noticed it was £3, proper bargain. It’s his first away day and I’ve gone standing which might have been a mistake :sweat_smile:

Is that normal matchday price or one off as its on Sky?
Was wondering if this is something Ben Sadler introduced when there

Over 700 sold so far of the 1600 and odd allocated. Would be nice to get this over the 1k mark, think we can do it with pay on the day sales

Not much pile on that carpet is there?

Read somewhere that the pitch has a disease, and its killed the grass

Doncaster apart from the first 20 minutes were very average against a very poor Morecambe team.
.Morecambe though Even when donny went down to ten men they never really looked like scoring.
3 points Saturday should be very achievable as long as we do the basics correctly on a very poor pitch.

Does anyone know if you can pre-book the parking at Westgate Primary School which is one of the officially quoted away car parks at Morecambe?

For those travelling spectators some good hints and tips below to make the absolute most out of your day…

On the seafront, around a ten minute walk away from the stadium is a dedicated away fans bar called The Boardwalk. There is a BBQ and a rooftop terrace open exclusively for away fans with big screens showing the early kick offs and senior citizens entertainment before and after the matches. Beer is reasonably priced at Carlsberg (£4.80) Tetleys (£4.60) Carling (£5.25) Double Smirnoff + Mixer (£5.50), plus 4 pint pitchers available too. Tea, coffee and soft drinks are also available as it’s completely family-friendly. There is also a bus stop located conveniently outside the bar which drops off outside the ground. The final bus before the match is at 14.35. For anyone making a weekend of it, there is music on the Friday night starting at 8.30pm and entertainment after the match. Plus the Boardwalk also has a number of hotel rooms available for £60 per night B&B if you want to make the trip to Morecambe. Call Trendy Tricia on 07891 813640 for more information. If arriving at the ground then with the entrance to the stadium behind you turn right and it is then a straight road up to the promenade. On reaching the seafront (where there are some stunning views across Morecambe Bay) turn right and walk along the front for about another five minutes you will reach the Boardwalk.

Just outside the stadium entrance is a quite superb modern Marston’s pub called the Hurley Flyer. Family-friendly and offering food too, it is hugely popular with home and visiting supporters, it has its own car park which costs £15 before the game, but this can be refunded against a food purchase. Otherwise, the closest bar that admits away supporters is on the Regent Leisure Holiday Park. This is situated just a few minutes walk away from the stadium along Westgate (with the stadium entrance behind you, turn right, cross over to the other side of the road and the Regent Park entrance is down on the left). David ‘Davey Boy’ Foster a visiting Chesterfield fan adds; ‘I had a drink across at the Regent Caravan Park. This was fully accessible, offered a decent pint and food, plus had Sky television on a big screen and generally had a good atmosphere. We also got to meet Pete the Polyamorous Pirate and Duncan the Duck who were terrific with the kids’. You can also park at the Caravan Park at a cost of £3 per vehicle.

Otherwise, if you turn left out of the stadium entrance then around a ten minute walk away (located opposite a Lidl supermarket on Westgate) is the William Mitchell pub, which also shows Sky Sports. If driving to the stadium from the direction of Lancaster you will pass a Toby carvery which offers reasonably priced food.

If arriving by train then you may care to try a Wetherspoon outlet in the town centre, called the Eric Bartholomew on Euston Road or on the sea front the Station Promenade pub, which also has a Wacky Warehouse for the young children. Anthony Yellop a visiting AFC Wimbledon supporter adds; ‘We stumbled upon the Kings Arms which is located right opposite the Eric Morecambe statue. The upstairs has 4 pool tables, 2 darts boards, 3 massive televisions and a table football game. It did a really nice breakfast and had great staff. It was only a £5 cab ride to the ground, a brilliant base camp for larger groups’.

Near to the old Christie Park is the York Hotel, which was popular with away fans visiting the old ground. It lays on a double-decker bus in matchdays to take fans to the new stadium from the hotel. Larry Pemberton a visiting Lincoln City fan adds; ‘I parked at the York Hotel, it was very friendly and did a nice meal. The Hotel lays on a bus (Cost £1) to take you to the ground, however I walked it and only took 10 minutes. Come out the main entrance to the hotel, turn right then immediately right again and follow the road down, you come to a sports and social club “Trimpell” on your left, continue on down past some stables on your right. The alleyway brings you out right by the ground’.

Otherwise, alcohol is served inside the stadium in the form of 500ml plastic bottles of Carlsberg Lager, Tetley’s Bitter and Strongbow Cider (all £5.90). A limited food selection is also available including popcorn (£3.75), potato crisps (£2.20) and chocolate (from £1.80)

That’s got to be one of your many mistresses or serving wenches surely :rofl:

Great info Crod, but unfortunately tainted as you gave no indication whatsoever about the time the travelling gate and wider audience need to be seated, tut, tut.

If you are catching the final bus to the match at 14.35 you’re not going to see alot of the game.
