Newport and Wigan for me, I remember going up to the league game in Wigan on the grass bank, and somebody turned up with the largest town flag I had seen, it was I think a navy one (?) or something it was huge (but I was young then)

I'm 27 tomorrow. Now who feels old?  You're virtually a pensioner  Many happy returns for tomorrow. (I never really figured out what the hell that meant) |

Eastville looked really charming whilst looking down from my car on the M32. I also seem to remember that it was badly burnt in the 80's

Before the built the Ikea and Tesco on top of it which are eyesores. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/14/EastvilleFire.jpgThe fire in 1980....it did £100,000 of ground improvements. |

Boston or Chesterfield for crapness. I quite liked the canteen at Southend.
Grimsby for parking

Great photo of the old eastville stadium it never fails to amaze me how may town fans there are out there with such great memories and to also have the interest after so many years when football has entered a new modern era.
The old grounds had so much more character for me

I'd like to add Filbert Street to this list - a fucking awful view for away fans ( like The Den ) with a pretty high percentage of getting slapped afterwards ( like the Den). Torquays was a shitheap in the 70s / 80s. as was Blackpools.

went to the old Filbert Street in the late 70's to see Man utd play but there were so may reds fans there they put them at both ends of the ground behind the goals and needless to say leicester fans were very quiet before and after the game
