Stadium Tour

[Hornblower]

Did it this morning with Mrs Hornblower. Bloody brilliant, had my picture taken with Ulloa. It's no surprise that the media voted it the best stadium in the country. I love our club and I can't wait for Monday.

Did Ulloa look like he wanted to be there?

He seemed very relaxed and contented, he was also very happy to have his picture taken with the fans. Total gent and very handsome according to Mrs H.

Good to hear and it clears up the cynical speculation on him that some people have posted. Never doubted anything different myself.

Was it just the West Stand or the whole stadium?

I've done it twice and I'd happily do it again. It's good fun and it really is a fantastic stadium.

Nothing to do with a generous provision of, er, refreshments, I'm sure.

You will already be at the ground, so where will you need to "get back" to?

 

[Hornblower]

The tour takes an hour and a half to two hours. It is centred on the West Stand as that's where all the interesting stuff is. I think we were possibly just lucky that the players were in. Apart from Leo, we saw Bucks and 'heard' Macka in one of the baths (hot or ice). It finishes up in the museum which I'd not been to before and that's good too. The glass case holding the last 50 years of Albion merch looks a bit like a cabinet I have in my office.

Me and the family are doing one tomorrow, just out of curiosity are we allowed to take pictures whilst on tour?

Most certainly yes, see my avatar!

Does Mr Horblower Know

 

[Norman Potting]

A Fab hour and a half

Did the special Good Friday one today with youngest Potting, brilliant and voted by her as "best trip ever". Apparently it was a shorter version of the main tour but I am not sure what else you would see of interest on that - we did some of the lounges, media room and dressing rooms, climbed to the very top of the West Stand and went pitchside. And we got to meet Gully and got a Cadbury Button choccy Easter Egg pressie from him, all for £15. Museum very impressive, would love to go back and browse at leisure. Only minor disappointment was that Dick's Bar wasn't open. Also disturbed Adam Chicksen who was having an ice bath.

Youngest was fascinated by the models of Goldstone and Withdean and daddy's ramblings about them. She was also taken by the brief snatch of the video there which was telling the tales of the "Troubles", particularly the York City game. Anyone "in the know" aware if these may be viewed elsewhere? Had a quick rummage on YouTube but couldn't see them compiled - she is a bit young to digest "Build a Bonfire" and "We Want Falmer" - perhaps there should be a special combined "Dorling Kindersley" style combined version for the younger fans!
