It's the price we pay for having the ground location that we have - in a park with a reasonably desirable residential area around most of it's borders.

The Brit's only a 5 minute walk. For all the talk and clamour of a supporters bar open 7 days a week ( which I do hope happens somehow for Argyles sake) there are long long periods that it would be very very empty, speshally when Brents Clusterfuck plans are officially deceased.

Where would the pasty van go, FFS?

According to Google Maps (walking distance and time from club shop)

The Britannia - 0.3 miles - 8 mins
The Cherry Tree - 0.8 miles - 16 mins
Stoke Village - 0.9 miles - 18 mins (I can't think of the name of the closest pub)
The Hyde Park - 1.1 miles - 22 mins
The JSV - 1.2 miles - 26 mins
Raffles - 1.3 miles - 25 mins
The Mannamead - 1.3 miles - 27 mins
The Fortescue - 1.4 miles - 28 mis

To be honest you might as well go where you like and get a cab to the ground if you don't go to The Brit!

Or a Fan Fest which is closest of all (30 yards - 1 min).

As one of the limited walking capability crowd I can assure you even the Brit isn't all that as pub near the ground. Once you have got to HP, milled around in the queues and got to your seat I am usually fooked. It's much easier to get a cab from the plain or town itself, you then get dropped right next to the turnstiles pretty well and costs a fiver.
I have in the past moaned to the disability officer about the parking and how the disabled spaces were first some first served basis, miss them and you have to park miles away, I was told to arrive a couple of hours before kickoff! Shame some of us cripples have to work innit?

Where it has always gone - right outside the park gate.

The pub would be on the other side of the road. No problem.

For someone in good health it's a short walk but for somebody with mobility issues it's far too far (as Iggy says).

Pasty and a pint!! Good call. Perhaps Mr Brent's Akeron could do a compulsive purchase order on those corner houses and build a dedicated PAFC pub. Shouldn't cost much....oh, hang on - what's the price of bricks these days!  rabbit

Which is one of the reasons the Far Post club is badly missed by some fans.

Did a plan for a complex with a pub to be built where the vet and solicitor building are.
