BLOOMFIELD ROAD
Covid restrictions: tba
relaxed 26/1/22 - no covid pass or negative test (15/12/21) . none @ 19/7/21.
(lockdown 3 @ 6/1/21, no fans). (Post lockdown 2: Tier 3 @ 27/11/20).
Definitely was case of works in progress, as old parts were flattened over the years and bright shiny new bits sprung up. Two sides of the ground or rather N end and W side, have a continuous 'curved' stand. The rest was a mess but updated for their Prem season. Capacity was 9000 during building other sides, 16k when finished. Away group housed on east side (previously a Withdean 'southstand' kind of arrangement). Now covered but closed to small numbers - housed in North (Kop) stand. What atmosphere, was a tad wierd?
nav - FY1 6JJ
Long 300m journey via M6 J32, M55 onto Yeadon Way and head for the tower.
Car parks around ground and not far from beach etc. Hope it's not too windy.
Stations - Blackpool north or south but either a distant or infrequent service.
LAST THERE -
Falmer years: 31/1/15 Ch'ship.
A poor record there and fans who made the trip were very disappointed once more.
Withdean era: 10/3/07 League One.
A nil-nil and mid-table mediocrity all round.
