Would have thought we'd take a fair few to this with it being a new ground

I like Blackpool a lot. Great history and heritage. Of course, any town that pretty much has its economy based on a single industry (principally holidays for the working class) is going to suffer when social and economic circumstances change dramatically.

I have just got back from a winter break in Blackpool, I love the place.
Public transport is great with the trams passing 100 yards or so from the ground and £4.50p for a day pass on buses and trams so park for cheap in Blackpool or Clevelys and get the tram up, they run every 15 mins.
Loads of cheap b&b's in Blackpool from £20 a night.
I would suggest if you like beer then visit the Strawberry Gardens in Fleetwood, part owned by Syd Little who is often there serving customers. Hes a lovely bloke too and usually welcomes football fans. Great food and excellent beer from a regional CAMRA pub of the year winner.
The Highbury Stadium is about half a mile from there.

I believe Jacko will reach all 92 clubs at which he's seen Swindon... Pretty impressive. |

Jacko deserves a medal. Whether that medal comes from CAMRA or STFC is another matter....

He'll get a medal there for sure. Unfortunately, it will probably be the pissy variety on the front of his jeans...

My father-in-law lives in Blackpool fact fans. Enough said......parts of it (Stanley Park) are nice, but the whole seafront is crap and tacky (says he who lives in Weston :-))
As for Morecambe, well words fail me.....

Not bad considering distance and time of year Am sure if this was beginning/end of season would have 3 times that Having said that am pretty sure another couple of hundred will be added to that |

Got to say I've got an eye on the weather first.
Would love to go as I may not make another game for a while
