I can confirm that the offical you spok...Hi Mishi. I can confirm that the offical you spoke to was our Secretary, Alan Constable. He, like me, reads a lot of the Fora, which is probably how he knew who you are! <br /><br />I can also add a little to your commentary on Short Lane.<br /><br />The reason the seats are blue, rather than tangerine, was that Spelthorne Council specified in the planning permission for the Main Stand that we couldn't have tangerine seats on aesthetic grounds!<br /><br />It's a similar story with the "Tank End". The pitch was moved fully ELEVEN METRES towards the fuel plant so that we could get planning permission for the floodlights. The idea was that this would reduce the effect they had on the residents. The end result is that we have masses of space at one end and none at the other...<br /><br />Glad you enjoyed your visit and excellent photos.Beanohttp://www.ashfordtownmiddlesexfc.comnoreply@blogger.com
