Quote: orangeman "Brentford, Twickenham and eventually Trailfinders all "seemed" like home. From what ive heard, Wimbledon has the feel of "the hive" about it....a little too far away from our west london home area...'"
I’ll give you Brentford and Trailfinders - for me I think we played some of our best rugby at those venues. I was never at the Stoop in the first stint there, never really felt like home to me after leaving Griffin Park , which to me was a great ground. Maybe it’s just me, I never really took to the whole pastels thing.
I think under different circumstances we could have been OK at The Hive- was a decent size for us, plenty of room for parking, not too far a walk to the tube, north of London so easy access for visiting fans coming by road.
Second half of last season- when we started to get our act together PL has started to feel like home . I think it’s been good this season, some of the pastings we’ve had notwithstanding, as the crowds have been up and it seems like we’re settled there. I hope we can retain some of the new fans who’ve come along for next season, it’ll be a real shame to go back to just 500 or so in the one stand back in the Championship.
