Good idea Chrisr, but you'd double the punters if you started it outside Wetherspoons!

As a kid, I remember the old car park outside Stanley's Peel Park ground being packed with motors on match days, with rows of Accrington Corporation double-decker buses lined up on Alice Street showing 'Peel Park' on their destination blind.
Being unattended by any crews, who were probably watching the game, the temptation to jump on the open platform & ring the bell proved too much for us lads.
Oh Dav, what naughty, naughty boys we were!
