Folly Field

Post by ancientnloyal »

It looks like we will be getting a new Blue Plaque in the town on Upper Dicconson St in 2022! It will mark the location of Folly Field.
Quite happy I’ve pulled this off!

Well done Marc 👏🏼👏🏼
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Unfortunately all you will encounter now in Upper Dickinson street is a load of houses converted into flats and lets say some 'questionable' characters living in them

Take a bow that man, that’s a real coup.

Brilliant effort. That must have taken a lot of hours and a lot of forms.
For a moment I thought this was going to be a critique of signing Jai Field - good to see it’s far more upbeat.

I'd copyright that usage of Folly Field if you can. Some jounro is bound to use it if he makes some sort of monumental cock up during a game. :)
