[SHANDY LOVE MACHINE]

The only thing I can predict with certainty is that it will be freezing cold and a wild west wind will whistle through the Hand and freeze your bits. Even Randolph Fiennes and Michael Stroud saw crossing the Hand as a challenge too far.

[spandau_wirral]

Is there anything to do in the town of Clevedon itself?

[Graham]

2-1 city 279 in attendance, young Yates, you are always on the web site, do you have nothing else to do, do you not go to school?

[yates jr]

You can walk on the pier. Be careful if it's windy.

The ground is not within easy distance of Clevedon, out in the sticks if I remember

[spandau_wirral]

I know you can see it from the M5 and I have made a visit there many moons ago (99-00 I think) when we got battered 3-0.

[yates jr]

Get off at the Clevedon junction, turn left at the roundabout, heading towards Yatton and the Hand Stadium is signposted on the left - Mrs Kingo's Dad use to live in Yatton and have passed the ground loads of times.

Just turn left at TESCO's roundabout.

And just like Bashley, pony treking!

The one and only time I've been to the Hand was a freezing day during our Western Division runners-up campaign when Karl Bayliss made a cameo subs appearance (coming out of retirement) scoring his last ever goal for the club in a 2-0 victory. I missed the bugger as well, as I was in the toilets at the time.

[Tiger Andy]

[DaveH]

At night at the weekend it undergoes a strange sea change into Clevedon's only nightclub.

[bobcarolgees]

2-0 city I reckon with 248 there.

My first visit to Clevedon was actually my first ever away trip way back in 1994. I remember in the programme for a Saturday league game it described it as the "magnificent hands stadium" and thus was very excited. Anyway on leaving there on a cold, damp Tuesday night Dr Martens cup game I was very tempted to report that programme under the trade descriptions act.

I hope it's improved!!!

[Neil]

It hasn't!

[BP!]

Surely better than your swimming pool though eh!?!?!?

When your ground is in the state its in, probably not a good time to have a pop at ours eh!?!?!?

[yates jr]

doesn't matter what are ground is like now there is still more atmosphere there than at your in the middle of nowhere ground with your cardboard cut out fans :D

[Trev]

2-0 city Att: 297

[BP!]

I think not Yates Jnr!! Just think, if you're at the New Lawn next season you'll have the best ground in the Southern League South Western division!!!! Thats if you're budget last's you that long as i hear it's being pulled - not the sort of promotion season you were all expcting eh!?!?!? :D

[Simon]

Does anybody remember this from when Jack Pitcher signed for us?

Bater also took a swipe at Gloucester boss Tim Harris, branding him an 'amateur' after failing to make contact to confirm the signing.

He said: "I'm not happy with Tim Harris and Gloucester City that they didn't even have the courtesy to let me know the deal with Jack had been done.

"I'm disappointed in two amateurs who have never played the professional game.

"I've been involved in professional football but this just shows Jack Pitcher and Tim Harris as the amateurs that they are."

Lets have a see who the Amateurs are today then Mr Bater. :rolleyes:

i don't think its time to start going on about not getting promotion yet as we've only played 12 games !

[yates jr]

do you think Beven Might start today ?

[Pablo]

do you think Beven Might start today ?

I don't know, but Bevan might?

I think the fact that more supporters make an a hour plus round trip to watch city then you get at your gaff shows the difference between the clubs.
