I definitely take Scarborough in a pre season friendly if they have forgotten. There is a probably a big red alarm and klaxon that goes off around Scarborough's ground if someone makes the mistake of booking us in for a ' friendly', I went to the Saturday one in 85 where they said they would never have have us back again, four of us went from Brotton, we went to a grizzly looking police sergeant on the seafront and asked for directions without any prompting he gave us a smile and said " we have room for 200 in our cells". In the end multiplying their capacity by 5 wouldn't have been enough, it seemed like a freeloading day out for a lot of lads from Boro, hundreds got into the ground without paying and anything of value which wasn't welded down probably ended up on the streets of Middlesbrough that night. I went into a shop near the ground and I felt sorry for the old timer, it was like a plague of locusts had descended.Bradford, Carlisle, Harrogate, Scarborough, Celtic, Rangers, Grimsby, Barrow, Gateshead etc
Would have taken Morecambe
