JUNIOR STONES BEDFORD AWAY DAY SPECIAL
To celebrate her first Stones match without her dad, Jack's sister was asked to make a few notes from her trip to Bedford.  This is what Charlotte and her friend Jessica (both aged 9) found out, with no prompting:
Did you have to pay to get in?
Yes - £2.50, Adults £5.  At Wealdstone, we get in for free.
What is the ground like?
3 stands and one that is half covered, it is quite good/safe for children
What is the tea bar like?
Good value for money, and good quality, but the hot choco was too watery
What are the loos like?
Quite clean, but not excellent
What were the Wealdstone fans like?
They were mostly singing songs and only occasionally swearing (Charlotte)
They weren't that bad but they were swearing quite often (Jessica)
What were the Bedford fans like?
We couldn't hear anything (Charlotte).  They hardly made a sound (Jessica)
Wealdstone supporters' predictions 3 said we'd lose, 3 said we'd draw
Bedford supporters' predictions All 5 asked said Bedford would win
What happened in the game? Bedford scored, Bedford scored, Bedford scored, Bedford scored
Did you enjoy the game? No comment
Any other strange things? Bedford scored three goals in quick succession.

Jack would like to thank Charlotte & Jessica for their contribution.
