I am trying to think of a non league club where a hotel is attached to the ground (not the chelseas of this world, but at lower league level.

 

i am sure there was a club in our conference premier days who we used to visit who had a similar hotel 'attached'.

Hotel was at an angle to the ground by the corner flag.

Can't think who they were now-

 

Not AFC Telford,but think they were in north midlands somewhere.

 

Can anyone remember ?

Didn't Forest Green do / have that? Or was that a supermarket?

[michael]

Nice groiund at FGR,-its a public house,conference centre and a gym they have in their ground.

 

Hopefully someone will thin k of the ground with the hotel in the corner-could'nt sleep all night racking my minimal memeory

I think it was Telford, Michael. Then the chairman's leisure empire went mammaries aloft and Telford went bust.

Would Thurrock (our Conference South days) fit the bill?

[Coffin Ender]

I once went into the hotel before a game there thinking it was the clubhouse. Ended up sitting with a load of Rotarians at some function. Smashing grub.

[michael]

Never been to thurrock ground-but yep-think they do have a hotel.

 

As CE says-maybe it was Telford after all.

 

I was there the day Darren Watson got a hat -trick on his debut !!
