Be great to see Buster at good old Margate!!!

That's Hartsdown Park, Margate ~ just behind Dreamland where they used to play and where you can still find a trace of the old terracing if you're that kind of saddo.

Went there many years ago and saw a player pre-empt Eric Cantona and have it out with a piss taking spectator.....like Eric, he got sent off.

Not a good ground by any stretch of the imagination witha 3G pitch surrounded by a favela of Portakabins for dressing rooms, generic little stands delivered from a factory and sod all else.

Nice view of a windmill on a hill if you stand the on right side though!

Correct Merse.

Just to clarify, No.12 was the one which had the away fans at an away ground (Gloucester City away at Farnborough), and, no, we don't have to visit Cherrywood Road again (well not next season anyway)


If I do this again (which I more than likely will because it beats working whilst at work) I'll make them a little harder....

:whistle:

Neither Merse or Mellow are correct on 12....

Clue... Torquay United have only ever played at this ground once - in an FA Cup replay (and lost.... no surprises there then!)

I'll say 12 is: Gloucesteor Supporters at Cheltenham Town's World of Smile Stadium, - although Gloucester are now ground sharing with Evesham United at the Jubilee Stadium. The club play their home fixtures outside Gloucestershire and uniquely makes it the only club at National South level or higher playing outside its own County.

NB average attendence over last 5 home games = 209 and a dog.

That's a tough one; I'll plump for The Beveree, Hampton & Richmond

Spot on Merse..... just leaves one to get...the ground featured in No.12

I deliberately stayed out of this until now to avoid the obvious trolling that I would have received for taking part from the usual suspects; but as no-one else seems to have them, here are the missing answers.....

11: Priory Lane, Eastbourne Borough

14: Imperial Fields, Tooting & Mitcham which will be used by Dulwich Hamlet if they come up

19: Cressing Road, Braintree Town

22: New Lodge, Billericay Town

Yes but unfortunately the 11 who matter for Torquay don't care as much as the supporters and will have exactly the same number 11 facing them! :-/
