    Easily the coldest ground I've ever been to, Just the once and that was more than enough.

    The local police were on the point of ejecting someone, shout came "Hang him like you hung the monkey". Ejectee immediatly let go, as the guardians of the law attempted to find out who had traduced their town.

    I was at university with someone from Hartlepool, he could extract the monkey-based urine as much as he liked, but just let anyone non-Hartlepool try....

    They seem to have very much a love-hate relationship with their simian legend.

    Same thing happened to a few of us, we went up to Hartlepool for a late season midweek game in 1974, don’t know why as we were mid table in division 4 with nothing to play for. I must have been a lot keener in those days, we lost 1-0 and were surrounded by young apprentice meatheads.

    Same match. They were coming out of houses. We parked top side of the park and had to get a lift in a police van to get back to it. Even then they were rocking the car as we sped off.

    Cue nostalgia! 1975 I think, overnight coach down setting off from sporting club. Got there very early, someone bought a ball, football game played on Tor Abbey Meadows, group photo on front page of Torquay rag. Can't remember if we won, drew or lost. Those were the days.

    The BBC had it on their fixture list as the Playoff final. Now they have changed it to semi.
