Up to the lofty heights of 19th place 8)

Molby back as manager, Bo almost fit (he came on for the last 20 minutes at Rochdale on Saturday) and the possibility of signing Christiansen (a larger, younger Bo).... Denmark's 3-2 win against England looks like a pretty good thing from Kidderminster's viewpoint :D

I can't help but like Torquay Utd: in fact, mrs nostalgia and I are taking a week's holiday in Devon/Cornwall to coincide with the Harriers game at Torquay near the end of the season 8) . Having said that, I'd love for us to get something out of this Saturday's game. A full stadium would be nice but it'll be half empty as usual :cry:

The cycling track was always a bit of a white elephant. It was built, I think, in the 1940's when cycle racing was really popular in the UK. The idea was to build a track that would stage big events and attract the top riders. Unfortunately, it was built (using tarmac) on the cheap and they never really got the angles of the banking right: the top riders said it was dangerous and stopped coming :( . I last remember it being used in the early 1970s when there was a "Superstars" event (gym tests, cycling, running etc) at Aggborough. Its no real loss, and the "New Aggborough" is better as the stands are closer to the footie action :)

Chileman, if this is the only question you missed out on you did well ;-)

Lewis, a few more:

Q. What colour shirts do Harriers wear at home?
A. Red

Q. Harriers were the first club to use a certain type of equipment in a competitive match when they played a home FA Cup tie in 1955. What was the equipment?
A. Floodlights (other clubs had only used them in friendlies or exhibition games before then)

Q.How many times have Harriers won the Conference?
A. Twice

Q. Why were Harriers stopped from going up to the Football League the first time they won the Conference.
A. The ground was deemed below standard.

Q. Which club in the Premiership or Football League is the closest to Kidderminster?
A. Wolves

Q. What is the "world famous" food available at half-time at Harriers?
A. The "world famous Aggborough soup"

A bit of info. If you see clouds of smoke in the sky behind the Jono Smith stand there is no need to panic. It just means that a steam train has left Kiddy station (theres a very good steam railway called the Severn Valley Railway that runs between Kiddy and Bridgenorth). The railway station also has a pub (called the King & Castle) that serves good real ales: friendly visiting fans will be welcome!

Hope this helps ;-)
