Stand where you want.

Seems they're a cashless stadium, even for programmes!

A good day out, not just because of the result.

Did you go into the Black County pub for ale ?

Of course, plus faggots and mushy peas for lunch!

They looked good..I only popped in briefly.
A long wait for a drink.As I was driving,it would have been a soda & lime so I did not bother waiting.I instead checked out the delights of Walsall town centre,a sort of slightly up market version of Sidwell Street

I had a large cod and battered chips before the game (my usual ritual for Walsall away, same chip shop every time) and it was bloody lovely.

Where was that fred ?
I’m a connoisseur of that particular delicacy at away grounds,but do not have one on my radar at Walsall.

It’s called Kings Fish Bar on Walstead Road, near the crossroads with West Bromwich Road. I always park on Walstead Road, walk up to the chippy then back to the ground. I used to go to Walsall a few times when I was living in Coventry as a kid and my dad, my bro and I wanted to watch a reasonably local game, and we always went to that chippy.
