I've been supporting my beloved club man and boy since seeing my first game circa 1969.
However I've never done the tour.............until this afternoon.
Any ideas what to expect apart from needing to wear shades to protect my mincers from the glare of all the silver ware in our trophy cabinet ?

I suppose it would allow for a good comparison between the old and new stand when it finally gets built.

I should imagine compared to some clubs it’ll be like doing a tour of Steptoe and Son’s yard

You jest about our trophy cabinet, I’ve done Barcelona‘a stadium tour twice and they’ve got what seemed like a trophy building it was so big, but I didn’t see a ZDS trophy there

there's loads of trophies - play off winners, second division championships, zds, and a few of the chairman's golf trophies which might not count if you consider their handicap at the time

Hi Mooro

Please give us a review afterwards. I am thinking of giving as a present to someone.

Sorry Plumpton, only just seen your post.
Tbh I enjoyed the tour as you get to see lots of places that are only seen by players and staff. Interesting going round the press box, seeing the board room, changing rooms, press conference areas etc plus you get to sit in the dugout.
Glad I did it !

Thanks Mooro.

Sounds good. I am sure that the person I have in mind would love it.

I did the tour in my late teens so about 40 years ago. In the boardroom we had a small trophy cabinet. I think Moan United have a museum for their trophies.
