The Anonymous Widower

92 Clubs – Week 7 – 5 Clubs – 9 Trains, 1 Tram

Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4 Week 5 Week 6 Week 7

Day 43 Day 44 Day 45 Day 46 Day 47 Day 48

So it’s all done now!

As there was only five clubs, the highlights of the week are thin on the ground.

Best Signposted Stadium of the Week

Wimbledon was the easiest to find, as I just got on a bus and waited until, Kingsmeadow was announced. It is one of only a few stadia, which are announced on the buses. Only London stadia can be announced on buses and a few are, although others have their own stations.

Worst Signposted Stadium of the Week

This has to be a joint award to Wycombe and Yeovil. I hardly saw a sign to any of the grounds, that would help a walker or a driver.

Most Surprising Town of the Week

Wolverhampton surprised me.  The ground is fairly close to the centre and easily walkable from either the station or the tram. There’s even an underpass under the busy ring road connecting the ground to the town centre. Quite a few grounds need these. surely, they mean that fans can get a meal or a drink in the centre before or after the match. I seem to remember seeing a report, that the proximity of Portman Road to Ipswich town centre, was worth millions a year to the town.

Dump of the Week

I know Yeovil has evolved over time and totally sold itself to the car, but surely they could do much better. I would be repeating myself endlessly, if I added to what I said on Day 48.
