Worst ground that I have ever been to was the old wigan stadium (springfield park) my memories are from the 1987 play off semi final where it poured with rain all of the way up the M6 and we were put on a muddy grass bank behing the goal with a small cowshed type stand at the top of the bank and to make it worse we were 2-0 down after 15 miniutes but scored three second half goals to win 3-2 then drawing 0-0 in the second leg to set-up the mamouth games against Gillingahm. As a second choice I would have to say that the Aldeshots ground with the netting behind one of the goals to stop the ball going onto the main road and having to walk through a park to get to the away end
Im sure there are worst grounds that I have not visited

Layer Road for me......wooden planks on a Friday night,and my memory is of always conceding late winners there.
Crawley pushes it very close.

yes I agree Layer Road was really bad I went there in the mid 70's on a Friday night, I think we got beat 4-0 and had the coach window smashed and had to drive all of the way back to Heston services without a window until we were able swap coaches.
I agree there is something quirky about Aldershots ground especially with trains running along the side of the main stand

Cambridge United where you have to walk across a field to the away end.

Can't disagree with any of those, as stated above Aldershot and Cambridge were/are dire grounds too. |

I don't recognise some of those OST.
Doncaster's old ground was awful as was Chesterfield - wooden terracing in 2005(?)

went to somerton park in the seventies for a FA Cup game and I think it had the speedway stadium around the pitch. Also went to Fellow park when we got beat 4-1 and Town fans were getting chucked out for baiting the wallsall fans over an outbreak of chicken pox within the Brum area
