Whilst in Blackpool the pie took time to visit Bloomfield Road home of…Blackpool FC.
The seasiders was once the home to some of this countries finest footballers including Sir Stanley Matthews, Stan Mortensen, Jimmy Armfield and old squeaky voice himself, Alan ( I’m a world cup winner) Ball…..Them wert daays!!!!
Little known fact, one time ex- Blackpool manager and Greyhound owner Percy Gladstone was once married to former pin up girl Marilyn Monroe! Bloomfield Road is also where Blackpool’s famous Donkey’s live, for a small fee you can see them every other Saturday on the pitch……Superb!!
Bloomfield Road is currently undergoing a major face lift, with the ground being totally rebuilt….jolly good it looks to!
