First Played: 1986-7
Win Rate: 25% (from 8 games)
There was no love lost between us and Basildon United across four straight league campaigns during the late 1980s/early 1990s. And the way we left things in 1991 was nice and even; two wins each and four draws. Our 4-1 home defeat in our first-ever encounter with the Bees skewed our overall goal difference, however. At least we all but capped off our time together in the same manner; winning 3-1 at home in January 1991.

Take the A1(M) south and M25 clockwise in the direction of the Dartford Crossing. Come off at Junction 29 and join the eastbound A127 towards Southend. After 6.5 miles, take the exit for the A176 for Basildon and Billericay. Keep on the A176, before taking the first exit at the roundabout by B&Q for the A1235.
Turn left onto Gardiners Lane South after nearly two miles, before making a quick left for Gardiners Close.

There’s only a small car park at the ground, so you may need to look a little further afield.

Services to: LONDON FENCHURCH STREET
It’s 2.5 miles from the station to the stadium; a distance that we wouldn’t want to walk and one we don’t guess you’d want to either.
