Lichfield alien Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Got to say it was a pleasurable expierience..big session in Beverley..laid back stewards and plod..and the 'bantz' with the home fans ..not to mention the cheapest pint I've had in a ground this season at £3.90....don't understand why there's different prices tho ..seems a bit odd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonofbert2 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 My first one was City Road when their gravy used to be a lot thicker and the corn on the cobs were double the size. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northeastowl Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Had one at Hillsborough the other week before going to speedway at Owlerton. Chicken wasn’t too greasy and had a decent coating on. Gravy was of a quality thickness. Customer service was a little lacking however so will give it a solid 7/10 rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cross owl Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 How times change when I went there when we needed a win to get into the top six in league one i found the police , stewards and home fans complete ar53holes . Had groups of hull fans waiting for groups of wednesday fans smaller than theirs . Their fans giving us cut throat signs in the ground . Got lost on the way back to the hired mini bus . Obviously looking lost plod stops and their opening gambit was , what are your lot doing around here , train station is over there . When we said we were looking for our minibus plod proceeded to tell us . Well it's not around here so p155 off to the train station as I don't want to have to phone your family when you've been put in hospital . Maybe just me but I thought it was a dump full of Neanderthals . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also walk into the town from the course so the town centre gets very busy of an evening on race days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a small grandstand and a very undulating track steep uphill finish ,usually low numbers best in sprints.Its a fair way out of the town if your walking ,plenty of car parking on the Westwood and about couple of 100 yards from entrance.Hope this helps a bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember rightly it came over the tannoy that we would be let out and the home fans let out five minutes later . By the time we had got out the hull fans had already been let out and as we had won weren't in any mood for being anything other than tw@s even though they were promoted anyway . Horrible place with the people to match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horrible place with the people to match Wasn’t it all fenced off outside the stadium ?. I was happy when I got back to the car with my son that’s for sure !!!
