Andicis Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I always enjoy Wigan. Been a couple of times, the pies they do are amazing. Does help that every time I've been we won. I liked Accrington Stanley away, that was an experience. Yeovil was pretty good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed the car park attendant telling us "we could be looking at up to 4,000 today" when I asked him whether he was hoping for a decent crowd....

Gone Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Brentford, griffin park. The pubs around the ground are great and it’s terracing, doesn’t get better than that. Shame it’s going away ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamUltraRam Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Best of the 'new' grounds is Arsenal & surprisingly good new ground is MK Dons Best of the older grounds Villa Park Best for the days out ( not really for the grounds ) - Fulham & Brentford & Bristol City Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millenniumram Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 For all round match experience, my favourite is still Griffin Park. Don’t see many proper old fashioned grounds like that around in the league anymore, and it’s about the only time I’ve ever “officially” stood at a football game. Nothing beats a London away day before the match either - drinks in Covent Garden etc etc. Old Trafford was a good experience as well. Not so much for the atmosphere, but the history around the place, and the sheer size of it. A bit like when you step out in the upper tier at Wembley, being so high up is bizzare. Staying in hotel football next door was good as well - surprisingly good hotel really geared around football, with a decent breakfast to boot!

Luckily quite a lot of my family lives in London, and they tend to be willing to get a round or two in whenever we go down for the football and visit. Seeing the prices though, god knows how some students live down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parked 50 metres from the ground for free. At 5pm when the scores come out we were already going 60 mph. Great pubs, friendly people and what a first goal.

Yeovil is one of the 8 out of the 92 that i've not been to Others are Orient, Colchester, Crawley, Stevenage, Cheltenham, Morecambe & Fleetwood Both Gillingham (FA Cup 1997) & Newport (New Years Day Div 3 1986) got abandoned during the match - but they still count don't they ?!?!

Went in one of home stands and there was a walk-in bar where you could sit and have a drink. Very surreal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamworthram Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Barnsley and not just because it's my wife's home town. Because of the number they let us take and the masses of Rams fans milling around that grassy car park. As others have said, London grounds because of Covent Garden are good. Elland Road is poo if you're unlucky with your seat as some are facing the home fans instead of the pitch. Peterborough was very uncomfortable. I'm average height but my knees were digging into the seat in front when we were sitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
