Yes we have fallen way behind most others despite our modest new stand.Going to many other-even non league- grounds I am not surprised at this.Incidentally Chesh' I am at a funeral next week at Birches Crem ,Lostock Green in Cheshire.

Shocking really, especially seeing the clubs above us and picturing their grounds.
The team in 54th can't be happy with their position either, considering their modern facilities and riches.

I bet Rovers are higher up the 'surrounding area's table.Take aways and pubs.

Sadly the neglect isn't only in recent years. The constant 'move to a new ground' rhetoric has meant the Mem has been left behind and recent developments are well overdue. PS If you need to call in for a break and/or a cup of tea let me know! We are only a few miles down the road in Holmes Chapel. |

Without them... good grief. The lack of a roof and rubbish view from the away terrace has been a source of embarrassment for years. Make that decades. |

The east terrace view for away fans looks poor,but nowwehave the South Stand ,I would of thought things better. This survey,pre new South Stand? |

And I don't think I would argue with Priestfield being the worst. Giant temporary scaffolding without a roof for the away support that's been there some time. No decent pubs in the vicinity. Awful depressing town. Invariably cold. Horrible. |

Recall when UWE was planned that a group on here planned a Web Cam so those of us who worship from afar could witness the progress of it being built.
