Did you know?.....

Oldham athletics Boundary Park is the second highest league ground in the country. At 526 ft above sea level no wonder it's bl**dy cold this time of year!

And its bloody cold there.

I remember going to a cricket match at Buxton in June 1975. It was a gloriously warm day. Two days later the ground was covered in snow!

Anyone remember that place in the Potteries, Hednesford, we went to that first season in the Conference? That was bloody freezing too. No idea how high up it is, but it sort of looked like it was quite a long way up.
