Arbour Park still has that ‘shiny new’ look, having only opened in late 2016. Normally, most new builds nowadays are fairly boring affairs, but pleasingly, Arbour Park is a little different, mainly down to the smart-looking Main Stand on one side of the pitch.

It is in this stand that most fans who attend try to get into, and the good news for visiting supporters is that segregation is rarely enforced here, meaning this stand is open and available to all.

On the rare occasions that segregation is in place, visiting supporters are mostly housed in the South Terrace at one end of the stadium. This covered terrace comprises six rows and has a capacity of around 700. In addition, several seats, which are also undercover, are made available to away fans in the East Stand.

Although the ground looks good, it is lacking in facilities, especially when segregation is in force. For example, toilets and food/drink outlets are brought in for the match.

One interesting fact that all visitors should know is that the pitch at Arbour Park is one of 24 FIFA-approved pitches in the UK to use 3G instead of natural turf. Thanks in large to this, the stadium hosted a number of games at the 2018 CONIFA World Football Cup.

The stadium is a completely no-smoking/vaping one. However, stewards will allow fans to exit the stadium and re-enter if they need a smoke.

The Main Stand runs around half the length of the pitch on one side of the stadium and sits astride the halfway line. This stand is particularly eye-catching with a central column flanked by two semi-circular metal facades. The curves continue over the roof, extending over the 250 seats below.

This seating area comprises eight rows. With no supporting pillars to contend with and with the rake of the stand being quite steep, supporters can enjoy fine views of the playing action from here. What makes it even better is the fact that the dugouts are located on each side of the stand rather than the normal in-front position. On either side of the Main Stand are raised outdoor areas that have several tables and chairs.

Opposite the Main Stand is the East Stand. This small covered seated stand is four rows high and runs for around a third of the length of the pitch, on the halfway line. It has a small curved roof.

Both ends have small covered terraces that more or less extend the full width of the pitch. They are prefabricated in nature, meaning that the terrace steps and retaining back wall are made of metal.

Why were you looking forward to this game and visiting the ground itself?

it was a close ground to get to and fairly cheap

How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?

it was a easy trip from the train station, walk to the end of the road, turn left opposite the tescos and then the next left and follow the road uo anf its next to the school

What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?

I got the train into slough and had a little wander around the town which i dont recomend. its very run down, and then wandered up to the ground.

What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of the stadium?

I was very impressed by the ground, very modern looking. 2 metal terraces at either end which you can create some atmosphere with just a few of you.

Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..

the game was not a bad game all in all. slough had a penalty saved in the 83rd munite and Chippenham scored a last minute winner after the keeper spilled a free kick, great feeling

Comment on getting away from the ground after the game

it was a simple affair of getting back from the ground home

Summary of overall thoughts of the day out

It was a pretty good day out, made all the better by the last minute winner. get in

Why were you looking forward to this game and visiting Arbour Park?
 
2nd v 3rd in the league. Another big game between two sides chasing the runaway leaders.
 
How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?
 
I have family in nearby Windsor so knowing the area meant it was pretty straightforward. The club car park is for players and officials only but the school next door has spaces which stewards direct you towards at no cost, on-street parking is also available too close by. If you take the train, the ground is about a 20 minute walk from the town centre.
 
What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?
 
A few of us gathered in the clubhouse, upstairs in the Main Stand. It got pretty crowded with home and away fans. As its quite new it was well stocked and had the televised football showing on 2 big screens.
 
What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of Arbour Park?
 
A new ground built by the council and leased to the football club I believe. The Main Stand dominates the ground but there are covered areas behind both goals and seating across the far side too.
 
Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..
 
The game itself was better than expected. Storm Dennis had arrived with 50mph winds and rain lashing down throughout. It ended 1 – 1 with both teams trying to play a passing game. Teas and hot food are served from an indoor space at the side of the Main Stand/Clubhouse and are very reasonably priced. There is a total smoking ban inside the stadium which was good to see. The stewards were generally okay, however, they took exception to a Havant fans flag obscuring the advertising hoardings. I guess someone had paid for it so that's fair enough.
 
Comment on getting away from the ground after the game:
 
A quick and easy 10 minute drive back to Windsor.
 
Summary of overall thoughts of the day out:
 
Wet! The 3G pitch meant the game was on, I doubt it would have been played on a grass pitch. Neither side would have been too disappointed with a draw.

Why were you looking forward to this game and visiting Arbour Park?
 
Just another different ground to go to. Also quite easy access from the railway station and a newly built ground as well.
 
How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?
 
My rail journey was easy, with enough time to pay a visit to Windsor. It is a short, simple walk from Slough Railway Station to the ground.
 
What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?
 
I had a walk around the inside of the ground, looking at the new facilities and working out which stand would offer the best wind protection as it was very cold. There were a few away fans, but with no segregation, it's not always easy to tell.
 
What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of Arbour Park?
 
It's certainly a smart ground with the very imaginative looking Main Stand. As I've been to some much smaller grounds recently, it was good to see stands on all four sides, which were all used.
 
Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..
 
The game was quite entertaining with the home team dominating the first half, being 2-0 up by half time. However, the second half belonged to Chippenham and they came back to score two goals to end in a 2-2 draw.
 
Comment on getting away from the ground after the game:
 
It was an easy walk back to the station and on board a fast London train at 17.18. My journey home to Ipswich went without any problems.
 
Summary of overall thoughts of the day out:
 
Despite the thick cloud combined with the cold, I enjoyed my visit to Windsor and Slough Town.

Why were you looking forward to this game and visiting Arbour Park?
 
Having visited all National League/National League North grounds, this is now the most senior league for me to tick off. In view of the time of the year, I opted for Slough Town and their artificial pitch for today's game.
 
How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?
 
As I was staying overnight in Didcot, I drove there from my home near Leeds and caught the direct train to Slough.
 
What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?
 
As I was on my own for this one, I did the easy ten minute walk from the station to the ground and went straight inside for a beer and some food. This can be found at the top of the Main Stand and offers excellent views of the ground – they were also showing the live lunchtime game on TV screens.
 
What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of Arbour Park?
 
This is a very impressive new ground and with a Main Stand that is pleasingly unusual in its design. There's covered seating down both sides and covered terracing behind both goals – I sampled both as there was no segregation in force.
 
Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..
 
A very competitive match saw Slough eventually win 3-1, helped by a noisy home crowd.
 
Comment on getting away from the ground after the game:
 
I stayed until the end and comfortably made the 5.15pm train back to Didcot, this time via a quick change at Reading.
 
Summary of overall thoughts of the day out:
 
This was a very enjoyable day out and I recommend visiting Arbour Park as a neutral.

Why were you looking forward to this game and visiting Arbour Park?
 
Having played out a 0-0 draw in the first match (in which Sutton weren’t at their best shall we say!), an opportunity was presented to tick another ground off the list and for Sutton to hopefully put a run of poor form behind them.
 
How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?
 
I took the train to Slough station which can easily be reached for Reading, Paddington or even Windsor. From the railway station, it was only a 10-15 minute walk to Arbour Park.
 
What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?
 
After leaving the station we popped over to the Moon and Spoon (a Wetherspoons) for a few pre-match refreshments (the match was segregated and we’d been advised no alcohol would be available at the ground for us). A fairly standard offering of drinks for a Wetherspoons, although it appears to be one of the older outlets which gave it a bit of character. A few Sutton fans were also in there. I didn’t see any Slough fans, but I’m sure there must have been a couple.
 
What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of Arbour Park?
 
The ground is a very modern new build with a decent looking main stand, covered terracing behind each of the goals and a covered stand on the far side. To access the away end we were directed behind on if the terraces into a fenced off area which contained the portaloos and a small catering outlet for the away fans. Unfortunately, there seemed to be an issue with one of the toilets which had let to a lot of foam needing to be swept out of the trailer by 2 members of club staff. This led to a bit banter between the fans and the staff which was all in good spirits.
 
Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..
 
Sutton started fairly well taking the lead early on. Unfortunately, this was as good as it got and yet again Sutton lost their way by constantly giving the ball away and letting Slough back into the game. Slough managed to equalise in the second half leading to extra time and ultimately penalties. The away end consists of mainly the covered stand opposite the Main Stand which was welcome given that it was chucking it down all game, however, the roof led to a decent atmosphere being generated by the travelling support. The stewards and staff at the turnstiles were very friendly and relaxed. With regards to the facilities Arbour Park looks to have some fantastic ones, however, as segregation was in force the away supporters weren’t allowed to use any of them and instead were left with some portable toilets and a tiny catering hut. Sadly this somewhat spoiled the experience of the ground as there is clearly room for more/better facilities for away fans when segregation is in force. I didn’t try any of the catering on offer (due to a massive queue). Toilets were soaking despite best efforts by the staff to clean up the aforementioned foam.
 
Comment on getting away from the ground after the game:
 
Following penalties (on which Sutton lost sadly). We stayed to applaud the Sutton players efforts and then made our way to the exits and back onto the main road to make the walk back into town. Passed so me very happy Slough fans who understandably very pleased with the win on penalties. A short 15 minute walk led us back to the moon and spoon for a quick pint before catching the train home.
 
Summary of overall thoughts of the day out:
 
I’d love to visit this ground again when segregation is not in force as I feel that the facilities offered to away fans when it is in force are somewhat lacking. A real shame as Arbour Park is very impressive and their stewards, staff and fans were all very friendly.

Reasons for visit
Well with short evenings upon us I don’t venture too far for football leading in the weeks leading up to Christmas. As Slough is just up the road and with both teams playing well, plus a local derby to boot this looked like a good game to sample. It is also conveniently close to my model railway emporium so I called in there en route and killed two birds with one stone which was highly convenient.

Getting there
It is an easy Journey from Newbury, with one change of train at Reading. Once in Slough, it is but a short walk to the stadium along Stoke Poges Road.

First impressions
I rather liked this ground. True it is very modern, but there is no question that the facilities are superb. As it is set just back from the road there is ample space inside and out in which to circulate. It does indeed have that spacious feel that sometimes is missing, despite the fact that Arbour Park has the smallest ground capacity in the National League South. Everything is very well organised here and once again stewards were friendly and engaging. One feature I noted was the very large interval between the home and away dugouts. Normally opposing managers are within striking distance (not literally one hopes!), but here they are kept well apart. The artificial 3G pitch means few if any postponements but I found the colour somewhat strange. But if it means accurate passing that can only be a good thing. The Main Stand is chunky and prominent without ever dominating, but fitted in well to the ambience of the stadium as a whole. The ground is bordered by two modern schools which seemed appropriate and trees bearing mistletoe which given the time of year also seemed appropriate! The ground appears to tremble slightly every time a plane takes off from Heathrow, which is close of course. I did wonder what that rumbling noise was.

Arbour Park

Before the game
Eating facilities were a bit thin on the ground, but I eventually plumped for a Lamb Kofta burger at a local café. I hasten to add that this is not my normal dietary routine, but this was Slough so when in Rome as the saying goes……. Feeling hungrier than usual and on a cold day I needed something warm and filling. It certainly satisfied that requirement. 

With time on my hands, I sauntered along the road to the ground passing the terminus of the Slough Arm of the Grand Union canal en route and then crossed the evocatively named Shaggy Calf Road before finding the stadium ten minutes later on my right. 

This was one of those rare games where segregation was in force (although three sides were available to us neutrals). Weighing up the options I chose to sit in the Main stand which afforded an excellent view across the pitch and had the advantage of not being troubled by a low sun in the west.

The game
This was a lively matter with good attacking intent from both sides into which was stirred a fair amount of needle, some histrionics from the Woking coaching staff and one or two pretty hefty challenges, two of which merited a yellow card. Whilst never dirty, the referee had to intervene more than once to calm down players and touchline staff alike. 

Back to the football. It was a shame that this match was settled by a soft goal coming on 30 minutes from Ben Gerring.  Poorly marked from a Woking corner he was able to nod the ball home past a bemused goalkeeper. Slough huffed and puffed and came close to an equaliser on 70 minutes the ball pinging off the crossbar after a goalmouth melee. However ,the two Woking centre backs were like a brick wall and there was no way through for the home side. 1-0 to Woking.

Getting away
It got very cold in the second half with the sun dipping down and a half moon rising, coupled with a keen wind, so the brisk walk back to Slough Station warmed me up nicely. I just squeaked the 17.08 Slough to Reading train and changing there was back in Newbury by 18.05.

Overall thoughts
Once again an enjoyable day out in a trouble-free environment. Not the most memorable game I’ve been to, but it certainly had its moments and good value entertainment.

Also an impressive attendance for this one – 1,465

Why were you looking forward to this game and visiting Arbour Park?
 
With Woking being relegated from the Conference last season it gave the opportunity to visit a number of new grounds, including Slough. After five successive home matches in October, it was our thirs away game in a week after successful trips to Torquay United and Gloucester City so we were hopeful of making it three wins out of three.
 
How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?
 
It’s a fairly straightforward journey by car from Woking of around 50 minutes despite going through what seems like 20 sets of traffic lights in Slough Town Centre. Parked for free behind the away end at Lynch Hill Enterprise Academy as we were there early – the car park was full by around 2:15pm.
 
What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?
 
There didn’t seem to be many pubs nearby so we went to the bar inside the ground which was allocated for away fans. Decent set up with friendly staff and was relatively easy to get served.
 
What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of Arbour Park?
 
Arbour Park looks like most other new non-league grounds these days with a 3G pitch, small stands running down both sides and covered terracing at either end. With the game being segregated (a rarity at Slough I think) we were allocated the terrace at one end of the ground.
 
Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..
 
A fairly end to end game with both teams having lots of possession in spells but struggling to create many clear-cut chances. Woking took the lead from a corner after half an hour and held on for a 1-0 away win, despite not having a shot on target in the rest of the match! There were 457 Woking fans behind the goal with the compact terrace enabling a good atmosphere to be created. The home fans at the other end were fairly vocal, especially when Slough were trying to force an equaliser in the last few minutes. Unfortunately, the tea and coffee facilities weren’t working and with a can of coke being £2, we decided to not to bother getting refreshments at half time. Toilets were temporary – I assume as it was segregated – with no hand washing facilities available. Obviously not the best situation!
 
Comment on getting away from the ground after the game:
 
Straight into the car behind the away terrace and away within a minute – a very quick getaway.
 
Summary of overall thoughts of the day out:
 
Good, enjoyable day out with friendly people. Facilities slightly lacking but I'm sure these will improve if segregation becomes more common. I would definitely visit again should we be in the same league next season.

It is the first week of the season and a week before the first Premier League matches so I decided to tick off my last ground in National South.

I traveled by train into London via Paddington and apart from the Tube being very hot, all went well.
 
What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?
 
I got to the ground around an hour before kick-off and had a pasty at £2. Very tasty. The staff and fans all seemed friendly.
 
 
What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of Arbour Park?
 
John Betjeman's "Now friendly bombs come fall on Slough! It isn't fit for humans now" is no longer apt. This is a new build and finished superbly. I assume that the local council has funded a great deal of this but I could be wrong. This is a very comfortable little ground. The stewarding seemed to be mainly volunteers but they were many, efficient and polite, even asking two people who had stood in front of me, to move, before I had to. Even the toilets were beautifully clean!
 
Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..
 
The weather was perfect for England cricketers to have contrived an unlikely 31 run victory over India in the morning and It was way too hot to be watching football let alone playing. Hampton looked like a strong and organised team but the final result of 1-1 seemed fair.
 
Comment on getting away from the ground after the game:
 
It is an easy walk to the ground from the railway station, but I got a bus there and back which was £3 return.
 
Summary of overall thoughts of the day out:
 
A nice start to the season with a top up for the tan!
