Well if it is back to football then it is off to the upwardly mobile

All Saints

OwL · July 10, 2012, 08:31:23 PM

Then to the Black Country it is for West Bromwich Albion..

Hawthorns!

Mustermark · July 10, 2012, 08:36:52 PM

Offside!

Pendy called All Saints on move 8! She is in nid now.

Hawthorns is allowed, so now it's off to Horwich Parkway for the Reebok Stadium.

Boothferry Park Halt

This is madness! Hawthorns was clearly Off-Side (and full of people wearing Tesco carrier bags)

But I can get back to Surrey via a Rugby special from Hull to London Broncos and then onto

Kempton Park

which used to be race days only but now has a regular daily train service

Darn it again! I can see the strength of move 8 by Pendy, then double checked by your move to Horwich Parkway.

Time to lick my wounds and move back down to

Maida Vale

Busted at Horses and Football!

You both got me then good and proper

A very clever below the line move at a crucial time of the game . . .

Mustermark · July 10, 2012, 09:25:10 PM

Yes, damn it. I was just going to Newbury Racecourse. But that is now offside, so I'm going to play it square and open up the diagonals with...

Haggerston

From there on the City extension on the old North London railway please give my regards to

Broad Street

Funnily enough I was getting to play Newbury Racecourse too but, instead, will have to go with

Newbury Park

PLD · July 11, 2012, 07:52:54 AM

OK Then, try Central Park.

(The UK one...)

REGP · July 11, 2012, 09:19:57 AM

Well if we are back in Manchester try Derker.

Pengi · July 11, 2012, 10:04:08 AM

Oh gawd, you've got me scrambling for my Greater Manchester Rail Network Map and what interesting names there are for some of the stations.

As I'm now on foreign territory, I am likely to make some elementary blunders, so with much trepidation

Besses o'th Barn

(Has anyone been there? Were there Bessess and a Barn?)

You missed an apostrophe. Apart from the name its main claim to fame is that it spans the M60 on a rather unusual bridge.

Hall i'th' Wood.

Mustermark · July 11, 2012, 11:01:25 PM

To be fair to Pendy, that is how it is spelt on the official map. Though i would also suggest it should have an apostrophe to show the contraction of the the, if you see what i mean.

Broadbottom.

No, the station. It wasn't an insult.
