New Years Day will be my next match i think. Me too. Whoopee! Me three. Any more for any more? 1:00 pm kick off right? Can't see myself doing a New years Eve, and getting up much before 1.....why do the powers that be fuck everything up? A quiet New Years in, Jool's Annual Hootenanny, perfect for a 1pm kick off New Years Day. Buggers pre-match drinking mind. |

I'm now making up for lost time. |

How far and how long does it take walking from Pokesdown train station to the ground? About 5 mins across the park. |

Train from Old Town, on the old M and SWJ...down to Andover, change and pick up some SR crap down along the Test valley to Romsey then on through Soton to Bormuff. Stop at Pokesdown for a Guest House in Boscombe. Doing away with that line was one of Dr Beeching's worst acts of vandalism. |

Where To Drink?
There is a bar behind the Main Stand, called the Cherry Tree, which welcomes away supporters to its downstairs bar. There is one pub by the dual carriageway, called the Queens Park, that is popular with both home and away fans. The pub shows SKY Sports and serves Ringwood real ale. On my visits it has been pretty relaxed, with home fans tending to congregate in the bar and the away fans in the lounge. To find this pub, simply walk away from the ground, on the road going from the main entrance to the stadium. At the end of the road turn left and the pub is a little way up on the left.

i use to live in pokesdown and it is about a 15 minute walk, turn right out of the station and walk up the high street and turn right opposite a fish and chip shop called barnabys (highly recommended!) and just keep walking straight and you will see the ground. that is the quickest way!

I was planning on this but with my car breaking down today I'm not so sure. My mum has offered to drive me, bless her, as she's going shopping and said she could just as easy shop in Bournemouth. I think I'll ring the number on the OS tomorrow morning and see how many tickets there are left.
