It's Bishop's Stortford Tomorrow


Hereford FC travel to Bishop's Stortford tomorrow for a Southern Premier League Fixture. It's one of the longest away trips of the season. Probably King's Lynn was a little further away from Edgar Street but not much.

However the facilities at Bishop's Stortford are at the top end of those in the Southern League.

This from the Bishop's Stortford OS:

The ProKit Stadium was built 15 years ago and is situated on the outskirts of the town, with a capacity of 4,000. The grandstand is covered and all seated with the addition of press facilities and directors box. There is a paddock at either end of the stand with refreshment/wc facilities. Both terraces behind the goals are standing only and are covered. The far side has a second 225 seater covered stand and further terrace which is uncovered. Turnstiles are located at both the town and airport ends of the ground. Access to the club bar is direct from the ground and located off the paddock at the town end. Programmes are available just inside both sets of turnstiles and from the club bar.

Popular hot food counter in the main paddock by the grandstand, selling a range of burgers, hot-dogs, chips and other snacks, hot and cold drinks.

Hereford supporters are asked to use the turnstiles at the Town End.
 
The Mitre Suite will be available for Hereford fans before and after the game as well as at half-time. This is a superb function/entertainment facility that can seat 250 in stylish surroundings. There is a stage, full sounds system, bar, dance floor, changing rooms, dedicated kitchen and cloakroom. Full catering facilities are available 

Toilets: Ladies and gents facilities are situated in the ground at the airport end of the paddock by the grandstand as well as by the town end entrance from the paddock to the bar. Disabled facilities available both in and outside the clubhouse.

Away team coach space and space for 150 cars on site plus additional facilities (£2). Visiting supporters coaches should book space in advance; 01279 306456. The car park is often full before the start of home games and early arrival is recommended.

Taxis: The ground is about 25 minutes walk from the town centre and railway station. There is a taxi rank at Bishop’s Stortford rail station and ‘Associated Taxis’ number is 01279 655666.
