As the Cuckoos game was officially an away game, we decided to go to our usual watering hole for home games. We started using The Gate for pre-match drinks for home
games before Christmas because it is run by former Dunstable Town
goalkeeper and county darts legend, Paul Orchard and his wife, Mandy.
The club is a former CIU club and has a very comfortable
lounge where they have regular bingo on a Saturday afternoon, which is very
handy when games are called off. In the games room they have a pool table, a
number of dart boards and an ancient indoor skittles game.
The game's room has sporting memorabilia on the walls, mainly darts and boxing related, but since adopting The Regiment, we will be adorning the remaining spaces with Dunstable Town mementos.

Drinks are very reasonably priced and the place has a
friendly atmosphere. It is the type of place where everyone knows everyone else
and they make less frequent visitors most welcome.
