Quoted from WOZOFGRIMSBY
My mrs has just spent her first weekend in Meggies (cleethorpes) and has fallen in love with the place. Just so happens she is Irish as well!

Great advice from everyone here to be honest mate. But, especially for your first time, I would suggest getting into the ground early and soaking up some of the special atmosphere that only BP can hold for town fans.

[/b]Just wondered if Dave smith, or anyone at the club, could organise a tour of the ground? Maybe get the telewag involved[b]

Above all, enjoy!


I am in the process of sorting something out with the club for them. so that its a day to remember for them (cannot guarantee the right result unfortunately)

Someone suggested going for a walk on the prom. If you do then my tip would be have a spare pair of shoes somewhere as you will get so much dog sh8t on the first pair you will just want to throw them in the bin!


When did you last walk along the prom ?
I live on the seafront and ain't had excrement on my shoes in the 7 years I've been here .

I've not been to the Fishing Heritage Centre for a good few years but that must still be worth a visit.

bit of a rubbish website for such a good museum

The last time I walked from the train station to the ground was just under 2 years ago, it was horrendous. It was also the middle of winter though which probably didn't help.

Whatever the temperature is outside BP it'll feel about 10 degrees colder in there.


Very good advice. I have been to BP at about the same time of year and were freezing my nuts off...And I really shouldn`t have a problem with the cold, being from Norway and all, but still...extremely cold - so dress well!

Yes don't get caught out with the cold, extra clothing can always be stripped down, lack of clothing can make for a miserable experience.

Prepare as though it was deep mid - winter,  that North Sea breeze caught wrongly up there in the gods (well for Non-leagu it is  ) can easily make it feel ten degrees colder like already said.
