Burton Albion 2-0 Aldershot Town

Burton Albion 0-1 Dagenham and Redbridge

The Pirelli Stadium, Home of Burton Albion (The Brewers). I (Ross) caught my local bus to Burton at 12:30 and reached Burton an hour later. After a 30 minute walk from Burton Town Centre, I made it to the Pirelli Stadium. The Pirelli Stadium was opened in 2005 which cost £6.5m to construct. The Main stand is the only stand with seating. The South stand which holds the Away supporters is completely terraced. The North stand where all the chants start and the Popular Side are also both terraced stands.

Burton Albion 2-0 Aldershot

The Pirelli Stadium is home of Burton Albion (The Brewers). I (Ross) caught the local Arriva bus (X2) to Burton from Coalville. On my arrival after a 20-30 minute walk from the town, the ground is very modern and eventually could hold League 2 football. Burton Albion beat Aldershot 2-0. It was a very competitive good game. The Pirelli Stadium was opened in 2005 which cost £6.5m to build. The Main stand is the only stand with seating. The South stand which holds the Away supporters is completely terraced. The North stand where all the chants start and the Popular Side are also both terraced stands.
