My advice for anyone going: try and sit to the left of the stand if you're anticipating using the toilet at half time, or trying to buy a drink/food.  

There's only one exit out of the stand and there was just a queue all down the front of the stand to get out which lasted the whole of half time. Unless they've sorted that out!

It was pretty dire wasn't it. The game between that wall at the left hand end and the pitch barrier can't have been more than 4 feet.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

my memories from the game last season is the young steward who let us out  at half time for a smoke and when the coppers said we should not have been let out, he threw a wobbly shouting that he was quitting after the game,he got pelters from everyone (poor sodomist), its one hovel of a ground but hopefully a better result on Saturday should make the drive home better this time round,UTM

The physical facilities are much better at Stevenage than at the old Hayes & Yeading ground. But at H&Y we were ALL allowed out at HT for a beer in the clubhouse.

Funnily enough the council where giving them a load of cash to move to a new ground but all of a sudden they changed their mind and pulled the funding leaving them stuck there for the foreseeable.

The old ground is a housing estate now isn't it?

Dont think i can stomach a repeat performance of last season, awful ground and experience, watching Bignot trying to make excuses for a very poor performance made it worse

Sorry KM I meant Stevenage not H&Y. Though I'm sure that if Stevenage move they will build houses on the land, the may as well they are building them everywhere else in the Town.

Broadhall Way is a discussions about non league ground basically, funny tough unlike BP there is never usually any discussions bout capacity, probably because they are never close to filling it.
