I'm hoping that in true rugby league style, we will be allowed to wander onto the pitch afterwards and take the place apart with a screwdriver. Won't get my hopes up.

I have a vivid image of dozens of people in replica tops descending on Fletcher Street under the cover of darkness armed with most of the B&Q hardware section, and stripping the place like a plague of locusts.

Count me in, and remember that scoreboard is mine.

Can you pay on the gate?

The potting shed!
Hope you don't get tempted to cupinol it another colour.

At present the club are saying you must purchase your ticket in advance from the HJ. If you are a season ticket holder, you get in for free but must get your free ticket for the game from the HJ beforehand.

got a sneaky feeling they might build some houses or flats there, as nobody seems to be building them in Warrington anymore.

Huh? Take a walk down to the other side of the causeway.

not notice the emoticon?

I'd love it if they did something like they did with Highbury. Seriously doubt they'll bother though, and just name the streets 'Bevan Close' and 'Briers Gardens'.

I'm all for nostalgia but do we really have to name every piece of new piece of brick and mortar after Warrington players? Not everyone wants their postal address to be named after a 1972 prop forward you know.

Mark Hilton's Testimonial vs Leigh was at Wilderspool in January 2004.

Lee penny's last ever game

Lee penny and jonny roper.
How they just both went tits up.

Wolfs Way ?

Not sure I'd actually fancy living in a house on the site of Wilderspool to be honest.

If you were situated on the old Fletcher street terrace I'd be very dubious about the state of the ground given that several thousand males used to urinate on your new homes foundations every week. And if you were located on the site of the Touchdown club, well frankly after some of the player of the year do's I "recall" you'd dig up all kinds of stuff in your back lawn whilst planting your begonias.

Who currently owns the ground, is it the club or the council?

Also, does anyone know how has day to day running of it?

The council bought if for £1m off the club to curb the debt and leased it back for not very much I think.

Seven of us going. Real mixed bag. Two who regularly visited to support the boys (one of whom was usually with the emcee), One who occasionally visited and Three who have never been before. A mixture of emotions!

I presume only The Brian Bevan Stand will be open?

The way we're playing at the moment is reminiscent of some of the Wilderspool era. the players seem to be taking this Heritage month seriously...

Gutted I can't be there on 15th for the final game. I did go to one of the U19 games last season. I took my 3 yr old who was a but restless sat up in the main stand, so we went down and ended up wandering along the paddock terrace towards the scoreboard before getting called back by a steward...

However I notice on the heritage website that there is 'Farewell Wilderspool Event, details tbc' . anyone know anything more at this stage? Hopefully this will be a chance to get on the pitch, snaffle some turf, and unscrew a faded yellow seat, grab a crash barrier etc...

That's a shame, would have been nice to catch up!

Likewise GO. I will be up for the Leeds game and for the Farewell Wilderspool event the following day though.

Two and three decades ago I could see what you would do with items but don't let the frustrations of this season come to that again Brixton!


(Sorry mate, I couldn't resist.)

I need to go and collect my crate from up against the wall, odds on its still there to this day.
