Villa Park



It was even better looking when the original Trinity Road Stand existed. It was considered one of Archibald Leitch's great pieces of art.




Speaking of Leitch, Highbury was another of his great ones.

If we're talking outside of EPL and SPL...

Aker Stadion (Molde)


Stade Louis II (Monaco)


Stadio Luigi Ferraris (Genoa, Sampdoria)

No offense but I've been to Stadio Luigi Ferraris and it's nothing special.

I like both Ibrox and Celtic Park although I would give a slight edge to Ibrox. Both have great atmospheres. South of the border I have always liked Anfield and of course the temple itself...Elland Road. Emirates lacks soul and atmosphere (part of the reason is that Arsenal fans are notoriously reticent during matches). I vastly preferred Highbury. Upton Park is by far my favorite ground in London.

got to walk around it back in 2004 great part, loved how the Highbury tube stop is 100 feet across from the ground which is in the middle of a neighborhood with nothing really commercial at all around it

None taken, I'll take your word for it. I've never been, but I always liked the way it looks on TV.

Compared to most of Italy's crumbling stadiums with tracks, it appears to have an intimate, almost British look to it, with the crowd almost on top of the field.

The worst part is the distance from the seats to the pitch


I really hope we dont win the bid

It's decent, I guess. Chievo Verona's stadium was larger and in better condition, but then again 90% of the seats were empty.
