Yep, but it was the school on Lodge Road at Skellow in1959. My Mother was busy working in the fields on the Owston estate. I used to leg it from school in an effort to get home, sometimes I made it other times the 'Ladies' on Lodge Road would stop me and take me back. Bloody hell I could run for England at that age.
I hate getting old

Sorry no it wasnt known as the caravan view stand, if you can remember what type of stand it was & a former chairman of the club it should help you find the answer.
Regarding caravans on the car park was the Dons way way of getting rid of them was to have a circus camped on the car park & two of the lions got loose? it certainly added a new dimension to the players Thursday night training session I have never seen them move so fast since that night.

Good to bump into you. You may have to change that name to Another Bloody Penalty if we keep going like we are doing

| Now that I have come down from the ceiling having had my honesty and integrity called into question it's time to mention a few things that can't be looked up on Google. I was over the top with my reaction to Moonlight which I regret but this is a forum and it's open to optimists, pessimists,longstanding members and new.
I can't remember the name of the stand I didn't know it had one,but I can remember it had a narrow snack bar at the back of it just about big enough to swing a cat and you got a drink and a bag of crisps if you were lucky.
People used to sneak in from the back of the stand walking along the bank at the back,some even sneaking in through Chic Booth's scrap yard.
I don't remember Gary Hetherington playing for the Dons but when I first started going it was like watching a band of brothers. The Goodchilds,The Goodyears,The Dflasters (not sure about the spelling) and the Asquiths,one of which hardly ever played a full game as he had a habit of being sent off.
The changing rooms were a hut that sat above the stream in between the ground and the Yarborough and in later years moved to the far corner of the ground to a breeze block affair and it was near there that Jamie Bloem put a player(it may have been Widnes) just about over the fence into orbit.
Many other memories including the circus on the car park and Whitehaven getting changed on the bus in the car park for one game.
That should be enough for now,as to the Dons the question has been answered that the team may be strengthened if necessary but let's see what happens on Sunday first.
