[The drummer]

don't know if it has been mentioned anywhere but i heard from somewhere that the game might not be played at bloomfield road? but at a rugby union ground somewhere can't remember the name

It's never been scheduled for Bloomfield Rd...  but if you're bringing the Drum, then feel free to take it there 


The game is being played at Fylde RU's ground.

Yes it was scheduled for fylde RU club (which I asked a guy who i work with who is a blackpool town season ticket holder and lives in cleveleys he hasnt heard of it?) and was published as such on the National League website, but I am sure when the fixtures were announced that bloomfield road was mentioned in the express and our website?

Blackpool Panthers now play their home games at Fylde RUFC, and they did so last season too.

They had a lease on Bloomfield Road for their first two seasons (2005 and 2006), but werent getting many fans in, so downgraded to a smaller (and cheaper) stadium.

Fylde RUFC holds about 10,000 and is a tidy little ground.

10,000!   

2,000 max its not much bigger than the Wids with poxy open terracing on  one side and a small stand on the other.

It is only a small ground but has a very impressive club house.....;-)

This is listed as their stadium on their website, therefore must assume it is at Fylde RFC:-

from the Fylde RUFC Website

Stadium Capacity: 5,450 (450 seated, 5,000 standing)

Although I really can't see where they would stand 5000 people!! Having been to the place, and it is a nice little club, it will be very crowded it that many turn up !

[The drummer]

i just can't understand that they don't play it at a proper ground, i no they shouldn't make exceptions for us but when we play swinton in the NRC in our first year in this division although it was a nice club house etc. its hardly good enough for professionals or if we take more than 600 which we will do we would surround the pitch....as unless they have built a new stand its like pieces of wood stuck together not alot better than the wids apart from the club house imo

[TomWidnes]

Decent club house, ive played there for wids colts, agree with the statement its about the same size as the wids.

same ere ive played there many times, pitch is not god when its been raining and the rugby union season is on so it will be even more ut up, we can jus how for a go start to the new campaign with no injuries and a decent following

[preston viking]

i work in Lytham and pass the ground every day on way to work... the ground is on the road between st annes and lytham around half a mile from the main bit of lytham  the road runs parallel to the sea front road.
