Bet you never knew this about the KP Stadium

Am I right in thinking no false pillar = no promotion? :ph34r:

Could well have been the pillars doing...just imagine Harry twitching on one side then the other.

I had a tour at Anfield a few years ago and there the away changing room was bigger so the manager had to shout, and there was a vent that led through to the home dressing room so they could hear what was being said lol

Also the floor in the home one was "anti slip" for the boots but not in the away one.

Would that not mean Away team can hear the Home team as well?

My random stadium tour facts. The home dug out seats are heated but the away ones aren't. Micky Adams requested the home dressing room bath and now Kasper has a soak before every home game!

My wife was one of the official tour guides at Filbert Street and then for the first few seasons at the KP, best bit was the free carvery I had supplied by the club every Sunday just for driving her to the stadium to do her tours.

I have shared this before, but around every entrance to the home team dressing room , the Thais had a yellow line painted on the ground. Being Buddhists, they believe  in good luck a lot and they believe this traps in the good luck, apparently. They did not paint the yellow lines in the away team dressing room.

The stadium was actually built on a former electric generation plant and gas works that was bombed by the Germans during the blitz. The bombers also dropped a bomb through the roof of the nearby Filbert St stadium main stand.

I used to do the catering to the players/media/refs/ball boys/photographers at the KP (then Walkers) - and we did provide food to the away team obviously that may have changed now.

Cardiff always bought their own pre prepared meals that we had to heat up for them in this weird portable oven on wheels that we switched on in the 2nd half and we'd drop it in just before the final whistle.

Good fact

Only stadium tour I've ever been on was the Camp Nou, now that is a shithole

Yeah same. Like a building site or something.

Electrical cables all on show all over the place.

I may have missed the news story but does anyone know why we have the ring of flags around the inside of the stadium back wall?

They was put there for the Doncaster game
