The Ground

The ground is quite modern, with all the stands being all seated. The only thing that lets it down is the fact all the stands don't join together.

From The Outside

The ground from the outside looks impressive. All the stands have been built on a modern complex. The away supporters coach parking is right outside the ground, so the walk to the match was miminal.

Facilities

Inside the away stand, the accessories were rather good. The stand was clean, little small, but plenty of space for our 2000. (not all at once!). I also had two chicken & Balti pies which were both really good. Shame they were £2 each.

The Stadium

I was impressed with the ground, a nice neat and tidy stadium. Looking around, seeing the stands filled with 20,000 fans looked good.

Conclusion

This was the second time I have vistited the Britannia Stadium. My last two Boxing Days have been spent freezing cold in Stoke. A good point taken from this game. I will like to visit the Britannia Stadium again some day.
