Biggest sh*t hole of a ground you've been to.

There ARE other teams(we'd have no-one to play otherwise) and here's where all-comers can discuss the wider world of football......

..and equally Kack inside. Iwas there for the cup game last year, facilites are shite, but at least you can pull right up and pak next to it.

It's bad, but I imagine therre are a lot worse.
For a club of their standing I would say Walsall's gound is Ok-

I must have been to at least 20 over the years that were much worse.

How does one lead to the other eh dickhead?

Surely the dislike of a club will make my opinion of their shit tip ground biased.

It's still my opinion.
Not really.

Your dislike of a club will have an influence, but to base an opinion of their ground been a shittip on your disliking it is silly. I hate West Ham, but like their ground. I hate Derby, and like their ground. I like Bolton, but hate their ground. Geddit?

Probably not, c*nt.

Maybe I'm a bit slow here, and I've been wrong before but doesn't calling one another c*nts, dickheads and pea sized IQs cross the old personal abuse line?

It's looking pretty swish now they've rebuilt it - all three sides
You wouldn't be thinking it's particularly swish if you realised that the third 'rebuilt' side is an uncovered 'temporary' stand that's been there for at least 3 years (and, as is always the case, given to the away fans!)

Surprised nobody has mentioned the cowshed at Trampmere yet, whilst Hampden Park is an utter dump as well.

Never went to Boothferry Park watching BWFC, but it was a bloody fearsome place even when going there on a Tuesday night to watch RMI in the LDV Trophy!

The rather cramped away end at Walsall is completely cancelled out, and then some, by the terrific Phoenix Club next door to the away end that is owned by their supporters club, spot on is that place.

Shame, you missed the chance for a wee jig on the field. Now that were a night. Makes you look fonder on a place.

Just remembered the dreary misery of the away terrace at Birmingham before they idenititarted it up. Felt like your soul was seeping through your soles. You got a partial view of the city, which didn't help, not least because it reminded you that you might have to prepare for fight or flight if the Zulus were indulging in the popular local pastime.

Went to an FA Cup game there and we were on the terrace at the side, getting bricked from the train stop at the back

If they'd tried it that night, well, carnage would have ensued

IT's got to be Rochdale's ground for me. The only thing it was missing was Gladiators fighting lions.

Finest night of my life as a Wanderers' fan.

I also went to a night match there around 85 ish. Warren Joyce scored our equaliser. I went on a rickerty old coach from outside The Albion. :D

Spotland is unrecognisable nowadays, in fact I'm off there this afternoon for the rugby - would be a good cup tie for us, the acoustics in the away section are fanfookingtastic.

Been a while since I graced Gigg Lane but I never used to mind it. Not a bad walk to it down their very own Manny Road, and when you got there the Cemetery End was decently sloped, wooden-floored for stompability and low-roofed for acoustics (isn't it now their home end?).

Compared to the facilities of our other local rivals of the time – the non-league pie-chasers – Gigg Lane was a pleasure to be in (except for the chippy locals despising you, of course).
