Dishonourable mentions to Grimsby away, absolutely rammed ,near certain was over capacity. Oxford United ,clear enough view, terrible crush in the narrow alley way getting out yer stuffed right in the corner when gordon watson scored . ive always thought that was the worst. the old wembley another used to have bucket seats with no back ,awful view and miles from the pitch.

Remember being forced to sit there for a home game because I had a broken arm (fizz knows). Just how is that stand still remaining as it is? Cause we never had the money to knock it down and build a new one , apparently ....I agree with u , scandalous eye sore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only way is S6 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Used to hate Blackburn. Strange large concrete bus shelter. That L shape terrace at Derby. Crap view. The railway end at Rovrum. Slagheap at Barnsley in rain. Newcastle when losing 8-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 The old Den. I only went there once for the 4-4 draw in the FA Cup in 1991 (I think) and it was horrific. Stuck in the corner behind fences with barbed wire on top, and couldn't even see the goal at our end just the crossbar. The locals were even grimmer, one kid spent most of the game waving a knife at the away fans. Must have taken offence to our chant of "we know where you live, in those flats, in those flats".

Most frightened I've been at a football match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloody good atmosphere I always thought the Baseball, same at Filbert Street. Always enjoyed going to their grounds, oddly of the new build grounds Derby and Leicester are two of the better ones.

Most of the grounds in the seventies were shyteholes but that Halifax ground sticks in the memory, the most recent bad one was Blackpool away in the cup when they were a premiership team , I thought the stand was collapsing when we bounced 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kendoddsdadsdogsdead Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 2 spring to mind immediately... Ayresome Park, the old Middlesborough ground. That frayed netting separating away end from the home support. Did absolutely nothing to stop the hail of coins and darts coming g through. That cow shed at Burnley, where no matter where you were, you got wet. I swear it is the only place I have ever been to where the rain came in vertically and horizontally. Honourable mentions to Grimsby, Oxford and Yeovil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluewings Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Bell Vue, ended up getting poked up the backside by a tree growing through the stand in the home end I hope it was the tree anyway. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
