First Played: 1987-8
Win Rate: 50% (from 2 games)
Our ill-fated 1987-8 Vauxhall Opel League Division 1 campaign is still the only time we played Worthing. Our 3-0 defeat at their place towards the back end of the season was very much a sign that the writing on the wall for us. It was a whole world away from our two-goal win at home in January 1988. The Rebels remain in the Isthmian League; last seen in the Premier Division.

The shortest route to Worthing takes you counter-clockwise around the M25; leaving at Junction 9 for the A24. After coming off the M25, take the third exit at the roundabout for the A243 for a mile. At the next roundabout, it’s the second exit (Leatherhead bypass).
In 1.4 miles, you’ll come to another roundabout. It’s the second exit you want again, this time for the A24. Now, you just want to stay on the A24 for some time and continue over so many roundabouts. It’s only when you meet the A27 in Worthing that you need to act.
At the roundabout with the A27, take the second exit for the A2031. Go over a junction with traffic lights and then one roundabout; at the second, however, take a left onto St Lawrence Avenue. Shortly after, there will be another small roundabout. Go right here.
Turn left onto Bulkington Avenue in 0.2 miles, and then turn right in another 0.2 miles.

Limited on-street parking is available around the ground. But the advice is to walk or use public transport. The former is probably not an option from Stevenage, to be honest.
Station: WORTHING
Services to: LONDON WATERLOO
Come out of the station and turn right, before taking another right onto Cross Street and following the route of the railway. Turn right again over the level crossing, then it’s left for Pavilion Road.
