    Worst time for me at twerton was an evening match against Bradford. Left work in london early to get there and the bloody clutch arm snapped on the car between bath and the M4. Whilst I'm aimlessly peering into the engine the solitary supporters coach from Bradford passed by (very slowly) where I received an untold amount of abuse. It was not a good time to find out I didn't have relay on my AA membership. Cost close to £200 to relay the car back to surrey.

    Only get back once or twice a year now. Would be more often if labour hadn't shafted the country resulting in interest rates at an all time low and our income a third of what it was when we first came out here.

    The above photo captures Twerton when it was used to host a concert in 1970. Bands who played that year included Fleetwood Mac and Shakin Stevens. Its a view from the Bristol end notice there's no terracing.
