I had a quick squint on street view earlier, what happened to The Comberton pub?

Been gone a couple of years at least.

Where's the best/safest place to park outside the ground?

theres a big car park at the home end of the ground & its free after 1230 on a matchday,should be ok if you get there 2pm ish,apart from that train station & 5 min walk.

I haven't been to Kidderminster since 2002 having policed there for 4 1/2 years. It was good fun running around Birchen Coppice, Jubilee Drive and the Horsefair/Broadwaters. Had its fair share of scumbags.

You must have seen some right pond life (stolen from another thread).

I have been over here since '94, but those places have always had their share of characters.

Pain in the arse to get out of though if I remember, only one road out and if it's a decent crowd.

I could rattle off a long list of names of those I arrested. Wouldn't be suprised if some of the smack heads are pushing up daisies now.
There was a thread on here a while back regarding one of Kidderminsters finest being done for stalking a central tv presenter (female). The idiots name was William "Hoppy" Carter and he was well known around Kidderminster.

Alas D.Boy some the smack heads have croked it but are being replaced by a new breed even more resistant to any form of gentle persuasion to p*ss off home and stop playing silly beggars. Even the travellers have started taking crack now.
Jubilee Drive is being overtaken by Victoria Place as the place to be for your scummer. Mate of mine had a push bike thrown through the rear screen of his panda before xmas, we can't even park up and leave a car round there now. Park St has an interesting mix of clientele too.
You do quite literally see it all in the Kiddymonster.

Hi Guys

Glad some of you will be attending today. Kidderminster does have it's rough elements, as does everywhere else, but it's not bad by the ground so please don't be put off. The areas mentioned are away from Aggborough.

As an aside, if you want to watch the early Prem kick-off (Manchester Derby), the Harriers Arms next to the ground will be showing it. I'd recommend getting there early though as it gets busy on matchdays.

I hope its a good game today and that you will enjoy it so much you adopt Kiddy as your second team when Villa are away and you can't go.

Thanks again for all your support this week - you have been great!

Laura

In the King and Castle, full of Albion fans. Lucky Dave W's not here he would be trying to smash the place up (after he'd sold them a fanzine, obviously). If any other fans are here and want to say hello I'm the Godless Communist in the Soviet Union shirt.

You will recognise Legion, he's the one with the big black cloud above his head and the upside down horseshoe round his neck. There is a 3 leaf clover sticking out his pocket.
