I remember that when the M32 was constructed, cars and vans used to stop on the hard shoulder of the exit lane to watch the game, until they were moved on by Mr Plod.
Very often the same cars would be spotted again later, after doing a circular trip.

I was thinking more of a congregation of fans intermittently under the m32 in corner of Muller Rd end/South Enclosure. Every now and again at home matches a small group would congregate. Unless they were kicked out already?!!! |

I was thinking more of a congregation of fans intermittently under the m32 in corner of Muller Rd end/South Enclosure. Every now and again at home matches a small group would congregate. Unless they were kicked out already?!!! No, they were actually sitting on the hard shoulder in their cars, and watching the game. They used to draw a fair bit of amusement from the supporters in the South Enclosure in particular. There may well have been a windows firm truck as well, but I don't recall it. As for your second point regarding the fans standing under the M32, yes you are right. I had completely forgotten about them.  |

I definitely remember a van or truck that used to go over and then disappear (behind south enclosure) only to reappear between south enc and tote end in background. I'm thinking of a windows firm. We used to shout 'yea' every time it went around (of course he/she couldn't hear us). I was one of many kids, in North Enclosure, sat on the hare rail. It annoyed the adults for a while, but when we rarely scored we celebrated on the sand and pitch.. Anyway, there were always a 'ducky boy' type in Jews corner.. |

I'm pretty sure someone posted an old photo or video of a van on the M32 overlooking the old Eastville Stadium
