Wembley
The Ricoh Arena
Irchester Rec

They were discounted for the following reasons

It would take too long to clear the pitch of doogie doo and syringes
The parking was a problem
Too far away

Prize to the first one who can match the reason to the ground.

Seriously I think it's the right choice, it's a good deal for both clubs and will mean that AFC stay local and keep the Community Spirit going.

Nice little article. Great news also - I presume we will be upping our promotions in the Welly area then?

Particularly around the supermarket etc. How about somesort of "drop the wife/kids off for some shopping and pop down to the ground?" Or of course "drop the husband off and come down to the ground!" :D
