[edit] Access to a turnstile via someone's house

In the TV broadcast for today's FA Cup match between Luton Town and Rovers, the announcer said something about one of the turnstiles being accessible only by going through someone's house. Any information about that? Not having much success in Googling it. howcheng {chat} 01:14, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

It's not actually through someone's house, the Oak Road end of the ground is built up against a row of terrace houses, one of them is missing to make room for the turnstiles. You then go up some stairs into the stand and can look into the upstairs windows of the houses around. Kenilworth Road is real dump, and I say that as a life long Luton fan, born and raised there and having been to hundreds of matches at KR. Bob Palin 01:28, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
The Oak Road is currently for visiting fans so they must be impressed. I've changed the text because it said that the Oak Road roof was added in 1986, which is clearly rubbish. Kenilworth Road may be a dump but it's a proper traditional old ground capable of evoking the feeling of when football was more down to earth. I'm not a Luton fan but I love the Kenny. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.18.66.121 (talk) 21:09, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
