WELL, what can i say, another GREAT lead off peanuts member on northwestexploration)!! he told me about the impending demolition of the lookers stand a while back, so i decided to put the site under obs, after a little recce on monday afternoon, it was decided to hit it on tuesday night :thumb:

the access was suprisingly easy, and with NO effort we were walking around the lookers (new start mortgages) stand on boundary park :cool:

anyhow, PICS!!!

through the entry point and up the stairs into the stand

Ah The Latics. Ha! Great to see that. I used to live about three minutes walk from the ground. One time me and a friend took a neighbours dog for a walk, on the pitch! LOL! We got chased out by someone or other. I wouldn't be surprised if access had changed from then to now :) I only ever went there once to watch a match, with my Grandad, I'm not really a football person.

According to the club security's being stepped up after thefts of cabling from the main stand area.
 
I love the irony of the sponsorship - 'Detect All Fire & Security Systems'. Clearly it did no good towards keeping you out. :)

Is that what they mean by stepping up secuirty?
