| | | Gillingham |
| Category | Score | Comments |
| First Impressions of the stadium, parking, ease of entry. | 8 | Another horrendus trip round the M25, an incident near Potters Bar saw to that, Kent Police however had allowed us to drop and pick up right at the end of the road leading to our entrance |
| Food & Drink, range, quality, price. | 6 | Limited choices for beer, but service was swift and the staff were really friendly. Quality of food seemed quite reasonable. |
| View from your seat, any poles in the way, obstructed view, seat broken? | 4 | The view was fine from behind the side, covered stand to the side had obstructions. The big issue is the “temporary” stand its very cramped, seats are small and uncomfortable, it should be condemned. |
| Home team support, was it a library, good banter between the fans? | 4 | Not a lot of noise until they went two up, fell silent when we scored. Almost no banter aimed in our direction. |
| What were the stewards like, helpful and friendly or jobsworths? | 7 | To be fair they were pretty good, quite helpful and hardly noticed them. |
| Toilet facilities, clean and well equipped with hot water, disgusting. | 7 | Decent toilet block many many facilities to use, clean and fairly hot water, dryers worked well |
| Ticket pricing, did the price reflect the facilities of the ground? | 5 | The stand issues apart the rest of the facilities were ok, decent amount of room to move around behind the stands at the kiosks |
| Ground facilities, half time service, did they let fans outside at halftime? | 6 | Half time was outside, they were very efficient but for some reason no hot drinks were avaiable at half time, smokers were looked after. |
| Match atmosphere, did the Dons fans give good support? | 4 | Under the circumstances it wasnt surprising the supporters were there in spirit not quite in voice and a fair bit was negative but thats how it is when things are going wrong |
| Ease of exit, did the carpark clear quickly, traffic around the stadium? | 7 | The attendance was 6,119 and 323 had travelled to follow the Dons. Our coach was waiting just where we left it and once we got moving all was good. |
| Any other observations or comments that may have affected your scoring? | ||
| Name – Groundhopper | Total Score out of 100 | 58/100 |
