Leave the M60 at Junction 31 and follow the signs to Preston. Continue to do this and
eventually you will see the ground in site. There are plenty of places available to park but if you are stuck it may be worth trying the large retail park. |

The
Experience
|
| Selhurst
Park is now again occupying one team after Wimbledon finally
completed their move to the National Hockey Stadium in Milton
Keynes. No work has been done on the ground since the
completion of the Holmesdale Stand around 5 years ago. There
has been mentions of a new stand replacing the old Arthur Wait
Stand but there has been no official word on this. Selhurst
Park ahs always it me as being a strange ground for some
reason, one reason maybe because the travelling fans are put
in one of the sides stands.
