I know theres someone on here plays/played for em......
how do you find the frigging palce??
AA route planner says this :"A route could not be found. This might be because of the avoid tolls and motorways option that was taken, or because a particular road has restricted access. Please check and enter again, using the search tips if necessary."

Find the Power Station.

It's massive, you can't miss it.

There's only one road into there, it has a sign up at the roundabout telling you what it is.

Go down the one and only road into it and a few hundred yards on your left there is (or was when I last played there about 12 years ago) a cricket pitch.

Piece of piss.

Sound advice Ripper, except aren't the social club and facilities on the right as you go in?

They are.

Except I thought that he was looking for the cricket pitch and not the social club.

The cricket pitch always used to be on the left.

Tees Road, the roundabout near Graythorp Industrial Estate where coming from Billingham direction (having just passed Tioxide and Graythorp) you have a choice of turning left to the Steelworks, straight on for Seaton, or right into the Power Station.

Played there a few times.
The wicket can be a bit sporty, so don yer tin hat!

The club's half decent, but the pork scratchings have a strange glow to them. :shock:
