The EON Visual Media Stadium, as you might be tempted to name this venue, is tucked away in the back streets of Ferriby , adjacent to a railway line , and within sight of the Humber Bridge.

There was no segregation on the occasion of our last visit to this venue in  season 2015/16, thus both sets of fans could happily abuse the officials, and occasionally the opposition, in plain ear shot of each other, without there being the slightest hint of inter club rancour. The stewarding was low key to none existent, which is just about how it should be, although the rough and ready cut of Ferriby's on the field jib, with less well mannered fans than County's might have sorely tested the on site policing/ stewarding !

Sustenance!

There were pies ( steak....steak....or steak), pasties, burgers , chip butties and the usual array of sub gourmet classics. Not a bad facility really, but some work needed on the pastry which is a tad too challenging, but popular I hear with Dentists!


Also...it is sad to report that  the chips were soggy on our last visit

A big plus however is that County fans have access to the Club House bar for those so inclined, so overall I would happily visit this spot again.
