I'll never forget "the battle of canvey island" in the cup. We were going toe to toe with West Ham (they weren't playing that day) who turned up in numbers to have a crack at us.
A terrifying day was had by all.
We've booked a room inside the old Prison at the top of Old Hall St. In Liverpool. Will be based there for both Games. It's dirt cheap and massive...you get to sleep on a mezzanine we stayed there before and it's great. 5 minutes from Lime St and the town centre. Marvellous scenes.
